Hockey season has started and hopefully we’re all enjoying every single game so far that our teams have played – unless you’re a San Jose Sharks fan then it’s just been a bunch of pain with a rocky start to say the least. With the start of hockey season, there are always a bunch of [...]
Early in the fantasy hockey season, there needs to be a balance struck. That balance is between what we thought in the offseason, what we’ve seen in the games so far, and what the numbers are telling us. It has been shown in prior statistical work that it can take about 20 games for expected [...]
Here’s the latest injury news from across the NHL! If you’re looking for information about a specific player and don’t see their name in this article, there probably haven’t been any significant updates about their progress since our last article. If you ever need injury updates for a specific player, shoot me a message on [...]
Welcome back to Goldipucks and the Three Skaters, a play on words of the Goldilocks and the Three Bears story. Instead of there being three bowls of porridge though, I cover three skaters and declare one too hot (i.e., doing unsustainably better than he should), another too cold (i.e., doing unsustainably worse), and a third [...]
The season is well underway now. We have fanbases panicking, parades being planned across half of the continent, and a whole bunch of news to cover. Meanwhile, on a fantasy level, we have at least one week under our belts, so you’re already seeing some direction from your team. Roto leaguers are just starting to [...]

He’s [...]
The first week of the NHL season is in the rearview mirror and I’m ready for another. Tonight, we get an excellent slate of eight games, which is a treat for a Tuesday night. Tonight, I’ll be focusing most of my attention on the Anaheim Ducks @ New Jersey Devils game, I think there are [...]
The season has started, and some teams have outperformed expectations (Boston, Vegas, Philly), while others have laid the proverbial eggs (Vancouver, Minnesota, Ottawa). Trust me, no team will be 82-0 or 0-82 by mid-April, so those deep breathing exercises might be warranted. For today’s matchups, I’m choosing to focus on the New Jersey Devils. Two [...]
Welcome back to another edition of Lining Up. Hopefully everyone has enjoyed their first full week of hockey! Although there have only been a few games played for teams, injuries and line adjustments are already making impacts that can help your fantasy roster. Keep a close eye on the line combinations as they change often. [...]
We are through the first week of the NHL season, at least with all the teams playing and not just the teams that made the trip to Europe. As such, I just want to give a handful of first-week observations from around the league. It is still far too early to make determinations about any [...]
