Ryan Hartman, he of a 31-point career high, is off to a fantastic start with nine goals and a 59-point full-season pace. On Sunday he was moved to center a line with Mats Zuccarello and Kevin Fiala (and at times Kirill Kaprizov). That’s a pretty sweet reward for his productive start. He even saw PP [...]
Every Sunday, we 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, Alexander MacLean, and Dobber ___ 1. I always seem to have a big miss. This year it's Dawson Mercer. Ugh. Terrible.

Another week of hockey is in the books and a few surprising standouts have emerged as of late. This week I am going to take a look at these players who have been on some impressive hot streaks. Some of these players are a big part of why their teams have seen so much success [...]
Seth Jarvis has been a popular Frozen Tools search this week because he now has goals in three consecutive games and 12 shots over that span. Jarvis was originally credited with a second goal in this game, but that goal was later credited to Sebastian Aho. The 2020 first-round pick has been playing on Hurricanes’ [...]
Bang bang, baby! Last week’s Gold-Silver-Bronze sweep and a perfect 3-0 showing for my side bets has me even more fired up than usual for our favorite day of the week. Not to pump my own tires too much, but I am cooking right now when it comes to picking winners, posting a 20-6-1 overall [...]

Roto league stud Darnell Nurse has been placed on IR, as he is expected to miss the next 2-3 weeks with a broken finger. Nurse’s 26:05 TOI is the fifth-highest total in the league, and his 53 SOG is the second-highest total among defensemen. He also has the second-highest hits total among blueliners (66 Hits), [...]
The Immediate Fix (Grab this guy and use him for the next several days)Mikael Granlund, C/RW, Nashville Predators (Available in 75% of ESPN leagues, 40% Fantrax, 64% Yahoo) – Coming into this season I don’t think that any of us saw Mikael Granlund as a 20-minute-a-night top-line center, but this season has been full of [...]
