We are now ten days into free agency, and here are the notable additions and subtractions from each roster in the Western Conference (not including 2020 draft picks). This week we will look at the next five teams in the West in alphabetical order. Dallas Stars Additions: Mark Pysyk - The Stars have been very [...]
Usually at this time of year, fantasy general managers have finished their drafts and already making crazy assumptions about the first few weeks of the season. (That third liner has eight points in three games! Should I drop Sidney Crosby for him?) However, COVID-19 has pushed everything around. Now, many fantasy GMs are gearing up [...]
The first NHL game I attended was between the Montreal Canadiens and Toronto Maple Leafs. Carey Price has always been my favourite player, so 10-year-old me was absolutely ecstatic to see him play live. I’ll never forget the feeling of disappointment I experienced after finding my seat and seeing Alex Auld in net for the [...]
Every Sunday, we'll share 21 Fantasy Rambles from our writers at DobberHockey. These thoughts are curated from the past week's ‘Daily Ramblings’. Writers/Editors: Ian Gooding, Michael Clifford, Grant Campbell (subbing for Cam Robinson), and Dobber 1. I cannot wait to watch Jack Eichel/Taylor Hall play together. Eichel is in his prime as one of [...]
The Bruins were able to avoid arbitration with Matt Grzelcyk, signing him to a four-year contract with an AAV of $3.6 million. Grzelcyk recorded a career-high 21 points (4g-17a) in 68 games last season. If that doesn’t seem significant, there’s the potential for a lot more given the Bruins’ situation in 2020-21. Because they haven’t [...]
We have officially entered the dark ages. Playoffs, draft, and now the initial free agent frenzy have all come and gone, leaving us with a very uncertain future and possibly months of waiting. Luckily, as long as you have the means to catch games in the morning, there are certain leagues currently running despite the [...]
It’s going to look weird after 15 consecutive years in teal. Joe Thornton has signed a one-year, $700,000 contract with the Leafs. Thornton is the NHL’s active leader in points (1,509), but at age 41 he might have to battle fellow aging veteran Jason Spezza (among others) for a spot in the lineup. The Leafs [...]
On this episode of the Keeping Karlsson Fantasy Hockey Podcast, Elan is joined by Will Scouch to talk through the fantasy impact of the 2020 NHL draft. Will is extremely knowledgeable and drops a bunch of takes of which players he expects to hit and which may end up being more of a whiff. For more from [...]
You’ve probably heard by now that Taylor Hall has signed a deal to play in Buffalo. The surprising nature of the choice and the deal has led to a plethora of takes and articles. Dobber is no different with some references here, here, and here. It got me thinking though, this isn’t the first time [...]
After a flurry of activity over the first few days, the free agent frenzy period has officially cooled off. We were treated to one significant signing on Thursday, however. Evgenii Dadonov signed a three-year contract with Ottawa with a cap hit of $5 million. You can read Mike’s Fantasy Take here. This was a signing [...]
