I’m sure you’ve heard of the phrase “the numbers don’t lie”. If you’re a dedicated follower of my columns here at DobberHockey, then you’re probably well aware of how much I utilize stats to inform me during my decision-making process. For the past couple of seasons, I’ve been tracking baseline values into forecasting future stats. This week we’ll take a look at those values to help us better plan for the rest of this fantasy season.

Part I talks about 10 of my fantasy hockey "laws."

Now, onto the real mathematical stuff! Keep in mind these are general average numbers and there may be certain exceptions to each scenario.

A Look at Draft-Eligible Goalies

By Justin Goldman|2015-07-24T09:05:27-04:00January 13th, 2012|z-Archives (other articles)|

With yesterday’s release of NHL Central Scouting’s midterm rankings, I wanted to drop some fantasy-related insight on who I consider to be “long-term gems” for deep keeper leagues. Even if you only play in a standard one-year fantasy league, there is plenty to learn by understanding how to project the potential value of 17-and-18-year-old goaltender. If you play in a dynasty league, keeping an eye on draft-eligible goalies is even more important, as you’re always on the hunt for the next Marc-Andre Fleury or Pekka Rinne.

Staal & Nash – Are They Worth It?

By Dobber Sports|2012-01-12T23:20:29-05:00January 12th, 2012|z-Archives (other articles)|

Both Rick Nash and Eric Staal are top-end talents with the ability to provide poolies with elite rotisserie production. We have seen big season's from both players; multiple 40-goal seasons from Nash and a 100-point season from Staal. While neither may ever be point-per-game players in the future, 70-points with the solid peripherals label both of these players as accountable fantasy providers. But do their massive contracts make them obsolete in a salary cap league?

Ryan Kesler vs. Jonathan Toews

By steve laidlaw|2015-07-24T09:05:33-04:00January 12th, 2012|Roos Lets Loose|

The Blackhawks-Canucks rivalry is truly a thing to behold. Over the past three seasons no two teams have faced off against one another in the playoffs as much as these two have. The result is a familiarity that breeds tight-checking, hard-hitting action even in regular season contests and yet, the Blackhawks and Canucks are among two of the most skilled teams in the league so in the midst of their tightly contested matches there is plenty of skill, speed and creativity on display.

Forensics – Lars Eller

By Jason Arbuthnot|2015-07-24T09:05:35-04:00January 11th, 2012|Frozen Tools Forensics|

Hello, I am Frozen Pool. F-R-O-Z-E-N P-O-O-L. And I am addicted to Holidays.

What a few weeks it’s been! I’m full of Christmas rye and coke, Frosty Heinekens, Candy Cane Cabernets, Yuletide rum eggnogs and Festivus vodka sodas. I love Christmas so much that even a documentary crew about holidays has asked to follow me; amazed that I can celebrate so well, I guess...
