Welcome to Part 5 of our original four-part series. We started with the skaters, but it turns out we have easy access to the goalie data as well. We have already covered centermen, left wings, right wings, and defensemen. Our goal is to figure out which players gave the most value to their fantasy teams. [...]
If the Tampa Bay Lightning win the Stanley Cup, Brayden Point has to be considered a Conn Smythe favorite for his dynamic clutch play.

Welcome back for part 2 of The Good, The Bad (fair) and The Ugly In the same vein as last week, I will review two players that fall into each category. The good will cover players that produced over expectations & provided really good to exceptional value to their cap hit. The ‘bad’ – perhaps [...]
I think there’s a lesson being taught to fantasy owners these playoffs that we need to keep in mind each and every fantasy season: we are at the mercy of individual coaches, the minutes they give players, and the combinations they use them in.

In this week’s Eastern Edge, we’ll contrast player production between the regular season and playoffs. In particular, we’ll focus on three players that are still battling it out in the 2021 postseason: Jean-Gabriel Pageau, Mathew Barzal and Alex Killorn.

With the playoffs underway for the past month, there have been few changes to the Roto Rankings for June. Most notable are the addition of players injured during the 2020-21 season that should be back for the 2021-22 season.
