For details on how to pick up my fourth annual Interactive Playoff Draft List, click here. I have room for about five more questions in my Hockey News mailbag (posted tomorrow), so if you go to THN.com fantasy section and ask a question, if it's before say 5pm ET I will probably be able to get [...]

When you hear that a player was “rusty” in their first game back from an injury, what images start dancing in your head? Do you envision him lacking energy or a powerful first stride? Or maybe he’s mishandling the puck and making bad passes? Whatever it is, you know the tell-tale signs and they are fairly recognizable.

For details on how to pick up my fourth annual Interactive Playoff Draft List, click here. I have to say, I'm truly surprised by the latest poll. The hype machine was really in overdrive on Steve Mason back in January, but I would have thought it had cooled by now. First of all, Tim Thomas [...]

Angus’ Prime Cuts 08-09 – Part 2 of 5
To make the team, a player must show something beyond the stat sheet. Similar to TSN broadcaster Pierre McGuire's annual “Monsters Team,” the Prime Cuts squad is chalk-full of intangibles such as heart, determination, hockey IQ, two-way play, grit, and clutch scoring ability. Most of the players on this squad are also under appreciated (in both fantasy and real hockey circles). There are obviously some big stars on this team – the usual suspects – but there are also some under-the-radar players who you may not have noticed this season.

Fantasy Hockey Ramble – March 28, 2009
As expected, the Avs signed prospect Ryan Stoa to an entry level contract. Stoa had a fantastic comeback year in college after sitting out last season with an injury. He has shot up to 63rd on my prospects list and moves up a little further with the news. With the Avs in need of a [...]
