Fantasy Hockey Podcast – 31 Beats: Dallas Stars ft. Sean Shapiro
Elan Dubrofsky
2020-05-14
In the Keeping Karlsson Fantasy Hockey Podcast’s 31 Beats series, Elan and Brian are on a league-wide odyssey to explore the fantasy present and future landscapes of each of the NHL’s 31 teams, gathering info by interviewing the people who know them best: beat writers!
***
Everything’s bigger in Texas– with the exception of the Dallas Stars’ offensive output in the 2019-20 NHL season. The Athletic’s Sean Shapiro joins Elan to explain how a high-octane offense sputtered for large stretches, which of the core producers has the best chance to reclaim lost scoring, how coaching and line combos factored into the bottom line, the way the blueline will shake out between two capable power-play quarterbacks, and which younger players and prospects are going to need to emerge to keep the team competitive.

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.
