15 Points to Consider

By Jeff Angus|2015-07-24T10:27:54-04:00November 18th, 2010|z-Archives (other articles)|

St. Louis

Elliotte Friedman’s weekly 30 Thoughts column on the CBC website is currently the best read in hockey. Friedman is insightful, articulate, knowledgeable, fair, and most importantly, interesting. He has sources and contacts in the hockey world that most could only dream of. He has an ability which is rare in this day and age - providing a balanced and reasonable opinion on the league, the players, and all 30 of the clubs.

Each week I will post my own observations (I couldn’t completely steal Friedman’s idea so I’ll pick a number other than 30) – with a heavy emphasis on the fantasy side of hockey, of course. Prospects, goalies, sleepers, busts, it will all be covered each week.

Norway phenom Mathias Emilio Pettersen

Although less than ten minutes southeast of Oslo in the best traffic, Manglerud may as well be on another planet. In stark contrast to the hustle and bustle of Norway’s capital city, the tiny borough is one of just three that straddles the picturesque wildlife preserve of Lake Østensjøvannet. Manglerud also happens to be the home of one of YouTube’s biggest hockey stars of the moment- a ten-year-old by the name of Mathias Emilio Pettersen. Find out more about this extraordinary young man in a special weekday edition of Bugg Bytes.

Fantasy Indicators of Success: Wingmen

Following my Western counterpart, this week we will cover Eastern Conference wingers. Two key statistics that I use to determine the potential value of a forward are Power Play Time On Ice and Time On Ice. Typically in order to produce fantasy-worthy numbers, players need to be receiving top six ice time and be at least receiving reasonable amount of time with the man advantage.

Goldie: Was asked about Halak's struggles, so here's my full-blown answer. Brodeur re-aggravated his elbow tonight. Rask pitched a 41-save shutout and Gustavsson was also brilliant. I have been stressing to owners to be patient with Rinne and he notched a shutout tonight. How does the White trade affect McBain/Corvo? I am not sure, at this point. White is [...]

2010 Subway Super Series – undrafted report

By Alessandro Seren Rosso|2015-07-24T10:27:59-04:00November 17th, 2010|z-Archives (other articles)|

The November Subway Super Series is a good chance to see some players that we wouldn’t normally have a chance to see, and this year it looks like the best candidates for late draft selections are center Daniil Sobchenko and winger Anton Burdasov.

Interesting Calgary - Carolina deal, which I will analyze within the hour... This is painful to say, it really is, but Todd Bertuzzi doesn't want to slow down. This is why I hate writing off guys, because some of them eventually bounce back even when you are 100 percent certain that he's done [...]

Fantasy Indicators of Success (2010): Wingers

By Ryan Ma|2015-07-24T10:30:07-04:00November 16th, 2010|The Wild West|

Continuing along with the third part of the series, this week we’ll take a closer look at the Western Conference wingers. The fantasy value of a winger can easily be identified by interpreting the same two stats used to identify the value of blue-liners, which is PP ice-time and SOG. The reasoning behind it is very simple. PP ice-time usually separates players who are offensive-minded from those that are defensive-oriented. The more PP time they receive usually equates to more offensive opportunities they’ll have to score with the advantage. On a similar note, SOG usually maintains a similar line of thought. The more a winger shoots, the higher the chance it goes into the net or creating offensive chances. The opposite also holds true, the less a winger shoots, the lower the chance that the puck goes into the net and the lower the offensive opportunities. Now that we’ve established clear indicators on determining the fantasy value of wingers, let’s take a closer look at most of the wingers from the Western Conference.
