In honor of Bubble Week we are going to put a quick pause on our look at multi-cat players and turn our attention to a few players who might be worth a little extra examination on your rosters. As with all of the other writers this week we are going to avoid talking about the [...]
The NHL Board of Governors had a call on Thursday afternoon but there wasn’t a lot of traction. This was not a call to offer a proposal to the players, but rather a call to start sorting out the affairs on the side of the owners before they send a proposal to the players. There [...]
Bubble Keeper week is back for another July November edition this year. Most poolies don’t have their eyes on fantasy hockey because both the draft and free agent frenzy are already a month in the rearview mirror, while the start of the season is still a ways away. Luckily for us writers, there are still [...]
Here are the Top 200 prospect forwards to own in your points-only keeper leagues - November edition! Soon, the NHL will announce the official start date for the 2020-21 NHL season, so we can finally set some draft dates! Already available is the 15th annual Fantasy Hockey Guide and the 13th annual Fantasy Prospects Report [...]
Boston coach Bruce Cassidy did an interview at NHL.com yesterday and Amalie Benjamin had the salient points of his presser. The most important part was probably the update on Marchand and Pastrnak. Both are still on schedule for their returns - mid-January and mid-February, respectively. That there have been no setbacks (yet) is a good [...]
Welcome back to Goldipucks and the Three Skaters, a play on words of the Goldilocks and the Three Bears story. Here though, instead of there being three bowls of porridge I'm covering three skaters and declaring one too hot (i.e., doing unsustainably better than he should), another too cold (i.e., doing unsustainably worse), and a [...]
Welcome back to the much anticipated Bubble Week here at DobberHockey. The McDavids, Makars, and MacKinnons of the world see enough inked spilled in their names to impressive an octopus. This week is all about isolating players who are on the cusp of your keeper list. They’re the old dogs looking for one more productive [...]
It’s Bubble Keeper Week here at Dobber Hockey! Across the website, you’ll be treated to articles discussing players who you may be on the fence about keeping in your fantasy league. I decided to focus on two low-profile players this week, but make sure to check out other articles across the site for thoughts on [...]
The Jets signed their first-round pick, Cole Perfetti, to a three-year ELC with an AAV of about $1.6M. Perfetti is hopefully the 2C of the future they’ll need to play behind Mark Scheifele. Despite a lot of talk around Quinton Byfield, Marco Rossi, and Tim Stuetzle, let’s remember that if any of them step into [...]
Last year, during bubble week I focused on the format I know and that is a 26-team salary cap ($81.5 million) keeper pool with 27 players on each roster (20 active and seven in reserve, but all salaries count). As it is the off-season, we allow each team to carry 28 players if one of [...]
