Goldie: My final weekly piece for Dobber is up on late-season sleepers. What an honor it has been to provide Dobber Nation with goalie insights and analysis over the past 4.5 years. I can't believe it has been that long. I am forever grateful for Dobber giving me the opportunity, and I posted a [...]
Injury updates: The injuries mount as Jagr, Duchene, Letang, JVR, Howard join the list. Updates on Crosby, Toews, Lecavalier, Markov and more…

If you haven’t picked up your fantasy baseball draft kit yet, it’s getting kind of late – head on over to DobberBaseball and grab it now! Another great job by Snyder, Schmidt and the gang. Here are the Studs and Duds for yesterday's games. Kris Letang is suffering from concussion symptoms, but [...]
Once again the Phoenix Coyotes find themselves firmly entrenched in a playoff spot in the Western Conference despite having an average roster. Much of that credit can be attributed to the strong play of goalie Mike Smith. A career backup, Smith has found a home in Phoenix and is putting together an incredible season. There must be something in the water over there, or could it be someone behind the bench?
If ice-time and SOG are any indicators of fantasy success, this week’s column will be a good compliment in terms of identifying a few trends moving forward. We’ll examine several advancers and decliners out West, to help you get through that mid-season lull.
Sidney Crosby has been cleared for contact. Rumblings are that he will return for Sunday's game. Is Evgeni Malkin's one-point lead over Steven Stamkos enough? Because you know the points per game will go just a little once Sid is back. The Leafs have extended Mikhail Grabovski for five more years at $5.5 [...]
While the number of quality players moved on this year’s trade deadline was rather disappointing, there were still a number of movements made. Below I’ll take a look at the moves made in the Eastern Conference on the actual deadline day, as well as a handful of others that happened within the week or so leading up to the deadline. Along with the actual trades being listed, I will also take a look at the fantasy impact (or potential impact) for each team that made a move.
Most head to head leagues end this week before the playoffs start. Now as we head towards crunch time, the injuries start to spike upward. The trade deadline has passed and it is put up or shut up time as we head into Week 21 (22 for some) on “Between The Lines”.
TSN is reporting that Mike Cammalleri will not face his former mates because he is out with an upper body injury. The Oilers have recalled Linus Omark from the AHL. I'd love to see this work out, because he's a dynamic player and if he doesn't make headway this year I'd be worried [...]
