Fantasy Hockey Podcast – Ice Cream Social

Omg! It's DomL guesting on this brand new episode of the Keeping Karlsson Fantasy Hockey Podcast.
Some people make player scoring projections, and some people make algorithms that make player scoring projections. Both those kinds of people feature on this episode, as Elan, Brian and Dom build their All Disagreement Teams, featuring the forwards, defensemen and goalies for whom their projections differed the most. All three hash out their projection strategies and resulting predictions to try and understand how they ended up as far apart as they did, and to see if maybe, just maybe, people and algorithms can coexist as one peaceful entity. Until the algorithms become sentient and begin producing their own projections. And their projections are just about the success of other algorithms' projections. And hockey players are replaced by sentient spreadsheets with cute clipart skates in the background.
Go check out Dom's projections, and then also follow him on twitter and read his fantasy rankings and team previews at The Athletic.
If you're looking for more fantasy content and projections, may we suggest our 2nd Annual Keeping Karlsson NHL Audio Almanac + Projections, featuring 31 chapters of classic Keeping Karlsson analyses for every fantasy relevant player on every team in the NHL, accompanied by a spreadsheet of our very own full season point pace projections for 300+ skaters and tiers for 70+ goalies.
Also, there are still spots open for the Keeping Karlsson Ultimate Patron Fantasy League, aka the KKUPFL, but the registration deadline of Sept. 12th is fast approaching. KKUPFL entry is free for patrons of Keeping Karlsson. Check out our Patreon for all the details.
We always welcome your feedback. Let us know what you think @keepingkarlsson.

Keeping Karlsson Short Shifts – The Wilkes-Jarry Penguins
Elizabeth and Lewis are back to take listeners through a host of power play changes that are giving managers the opportunity to get exposure to great players off the waiver wire, including Philly, Jersey, and Tampa talk. They also cover Jarry’s AHL demotion, Cooley’s ascension to the top-line and powerplay, and injuries to Tavares and Hintz. The duo wrap up with some hot and cold streak deep dives, including discussion of the Red Wings crazy powerplay success in the last ten games, whether Erik Gustafsson is rosterable or an overperforming illusion, Fantilli’s continued success, Merilainen as Hamburglar 2.0, and whether Schenn’s success and Neighbours’ lack thereof are likely to continue.
Keeping Karlsson: Leaving Letang
Elan and Brian find a couple volume and potential starters showing up midseason, consider whether Jake Walman really is on the league’s longest hot streak, and encourage you to pause the pod for a Columbus 1C stepping onto one of the NHL’s best lines.
