  Stamkos has no goals in his past six games.   Johan Harju has two points in his past two games for the Lightning. He was dominating the AHL before getting recalled by the team.   He isn’t seeing much ice time right now, but if he continues to produce, that will change.   An [...]

  J.P. From Japer's Rink (@JapersRink) Tweeted the exact numbers - Perreault has seven points in four "first game after recall" opportunities.   Let's kick things off with my buddy Mathieu Perreault. Two goals, no power-play time, and 13 minutes of ice time. If he's been recalled five times in his career (not sure), I [...]

The Crawford Conundrum

Crawford

 

With Corey Crawford’s sixth straight win on Sunday night against the feeble Calgary Flames, the Chicago Blackhawks are very close to having a controversy on their hands. And although there are many ways the Blackhawks can handle their goalies in a positive manner moving forward, many questions surround both Crawford and Marty Turco’s short and long-term fantasy value.

  There we go - the Caps have finally recalled Mathieu Perreault. Hopefully he sticks around for awhile, but look for continued progress (maybe three points in six games - to me that is nice progress).   Billy Guerin has officially retired. A solid fantasy player who extended his worth by signing for that final [...]

  Corey Crawford will get the start today for Chicago. A big start from him will solidify his claim as the No.1 guy. He's won five in a row.   The issue with downloads and the ultimate/keeper league packs is still being worked on, I expect it to be solved this week. Sorry for this, [...]

Saturday’s Picks – December 4th

Happy December poolies! Two Saturdays ago didn’t exactly go exactly as planned. However, aside from the four shootouts (coin tosses) I managed to split my picks down the middle. Unfortunately, the SO’s cannot be excluded and will be on the rebound this weekend. As we enter the NHL’s 3rd month, this is where things start to get that much more interesting. Preliminary evaluations have now surely been made by GM’s league-wide and resulting plans of action will begin to stimulate some activity, as evidenced by the Hannan, Hunwick, Fleischmann movements this week. And so, without further ado let’s get to this week’s Saturday night slate!

  Valtteri Filppula has six points in his last four games.   Jeremy Morin played almost 13 minutes last night (three of which was on the PP). He was pointless. Look for him to get a shot to produce while Hossa is out.   Dobber here. Brent Lemon and I whipped something together for Puck [...]

A tough decision can be made easier with these charts showing you the best five and worst five schedules for upcoming seven-day periods. Some of you used them last year but for the benefit of new readers here is a refresher. The number next to the team indicates the 'multiplier' to use on a player's point-per-game pace to give you an idea how many points to expect for that week.
