Final Saturday of NHL hockey for a couple of weeks, but I’m sure watching the Olympics will be just as exciting. If anything it’ll be a little more relaxing for us poolies as there won’t be any fantasy hockey scoring to keep track of, except for the DobberHockey Olympic Pool. If you haven’t signed up yet, what are you waiting for?? It’s FREE!!! Let’s hope Thunder and I can head into the break on a winning note, as these may be our final picks of the year. I’m heading to Europe for a month so you guys will be able to win even more money by using Notch’s picks! Have a great weekend guys.

Toronto has claimed Jamie Lundmark off of waivers from Calgary. Fantastic move for the Leafs - Lundmark is a great offensive player, and the Leafs are pretty thin in that category up front. Look for him to play on one of the top two lines down the stretch. He is a great pick up for [...]

Welcome once again to “An Expert’s Audit.” This audit will be posted here as well as on my fantasy hockey blog at www.fantasyhockey.hockeyanalysis.com . I also do weekly reviews of teams for people who email in to me for a look-see. These audits will continue to appear here monthly and if you’re interested in having your keeper team “worked over” then you can begin by emailing Dobber (contact link at bottom of website) about it. But send it in by the 15th, as I will be starting on my next one at that point.

 

Anthony Furino is an Isles fan who contacted for a little advice on his fantasy team. He’s built his team to win now and wanted a little nudge to put him over the top. He plays in a 20 team dynasty H2H where he’s solidly positioned for the playoffs and anxious to make a run. The stat categories are G, A, P, +/-, PPP, SHP, and GWG for skaters and W, GAA, SV, SV% and SHO for goalies. My advice in a league like this is to target goal scorers since that’ll count in several categories, and to target goalies who get lots of saves.

 

Well let’s take a look at the Manhattan Supermen.

An Avalanche of Upside

The Colorado Avalanche, expected to be out of playoff contention this season in the Western Conference, have surprised even the wildest of optimists with their play to date. They were entering 2009-10 with an unproven starting goaltender in Craig Anderson, and a roster which featured a potentially disjointed mix of old and young players. However, first year Coach Joe Sacco has brought the mixture together and made it work in a big way. Thanks in large part to the strong goaltending from Anderson, The Avalanche are currently leading the Northwest Division.

 

Colorado’s young talent has impressively stepped in seamlessly and contributed to the team’s success. First year forward Matt Duchene is the cream of the crop, but he has been joined by the likes of Chris Stewart, TJ Galiardi, Ryan O’Reilly, Brandon Yip, and Kyle Cumiskey.

MTL has picked up Dominic Moore from FLA for a second round pick. Nice deal for Florida. The Habs make up for their crazy injuries by adding a decent third-liner who has proven before that he can put up points when called upon.   Per Tarik El Bashir - Chris Bourque and Karl Alzner are [...]

16 players have a plus/minus of plus-21 or greater - seven of them are Washington Capitals. Amazing - if you're hurting in that category just drop half your team and scoop up whichever Caps are available! (Thanks Joey for the line)   Cal O'Reilly followed up his three-point game Saturday with a goal last night. [...]
