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 *** Merry Christmas! *** 1. Congratulations to Alex Ovechkin on passing Gordie Howe for #2 on the all-time goals list. He needs only 93 [...]
Merry Christmas! Whether you celebrate or not, hope you have a great day. Alex Ovechkin needs only 93 more goals to catch Wayne Gretzky for the all-time lead. Ovechkin has 22 goals in 36 games, so let’s assume he scores 20 more goals this season for another 40+ goal season. That would leave him with [...]

Before we dive in though as the schedule person, I want to quickly comment on the ESPN article from Sunday that [...]
Special Edition of the article this week with a DFS Friday on tap as 26 teams were scheduled for action in the last night before the league pauses for a holiday break. We’ve since lost two of those games as of this writing because of weather concerns, but that still leaves us with a more [...]

I’ve taken my time to look over every matchup tonight, and I think I’ve found a few props that can win [...]
