For Part 1, click here. While Alex Mclean and others have their predicted salaries and terms for what free agents might sign for, I wanted to come up with a performative salary number for an individual or a team’s salary value that they had for a particular time frame. The idea was to see if [...]
Montreal has signed David Reinbacher, its fifth overall pick from this past Draft, to his three-year entry-level contract. This does not necessarily mean that he will be in the lineup for the 2023-24 season, of course, but it is nice to get that contract done and not have it something to worry about down the [...]
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 [...]

There are development camps going on across the NHL and it’s really not a great time to assess much. Teams are restricted, for now, to their own prospects, so an elite pick from the 2023 Draft out-performing a 7th-rounder from 2022 doesn’t tell us much. It is also hard to follow along with what is [...]
While Alex Mclean and others have their predicted salaries and terms for what free agents might sign for, I wanted to come up with a performative salary number for an individual or a team’s salary value that they had for a particular time frame. The idea was to see if the salary or cap that [...]
Even though many teams regret their free-agent signings less than a year later, there are a few moves that are great for fantasy hockey general managers. We all want to believe a player we have in a fantasy keeper league that has signed with a new team will excel; we twist all logic to try [...]
