Looking ahead at the best schedules in fantasy hockey for the final week of the season.

 

With the season coming to an end in a matter of days, let's take a close look at the remaining NHL schedule to see what squads will help (or hurt) fantasy owners as they try to secure league championships.

 

Love 'Em (These squads are sure to pay dividends in the coming week)              

 

Columbus – There are three reasons to lean on the Blue Jackets down the stretch:

 

1. They play five games between Saturday, April 4 and Saturday, April 11.

 

2. They play two out of their final three games at home (and four of their final six dating back to Thursday, April 2).

 

3. This man. If you own him and are competing for your league's title, you're probably going to win.

📢 advertisement:

 

Philadelphia – No team has a more advantageous schedule in the season's final days than the Flyers. Philly plays its final five games at home. Yes, five. It's just too bad they traded this man to the aforementioned Blue Jackets for three draft picks in the summer of 2012.

 

New York Rangers – The volume will be there. The Rangers play five games between Saturday, April  4 and Saturday, April 11.Three of those games will be at home. Now if New York can only overcome that brewing goalie controver-… Just kidding. This is Henrik Lundqvist's team again.

 

Leave 'Em (These squads will leave fantasy owners sorely disappointed for the immediate future)
