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, Brennan Des and Dobber — 1. I wanted to sprint through a few players who I think that we're getting to that point in the season [...]

Ramblings: Kuzmenko, Meier Back in Business; Zegras Returns; B. Tkachuk’s Continued Bangers Value (Dec 24)

If you’re in a head-to-head league, Saturday was the final day of your matchup. In other words, no players to stream today. The league is off on Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday as the league heads into a three-day break. A very merry Christmas to the Vancouver Canucks, who lead the NHL in points (49), goals [...]

DFS Saturday: Look For Boeser To Score Another

All I want for Christmas - some players coming off absence this week were Dylan Larkin, Andrei Svechnikov, Auston Matthews, Cale Makar, Jacob Markstrom, Aaron Ekblad, Charlie McAvoy, Jack Quinn  - injuries are inevitable, but the NHL is better to have these men playing.  Now my January wishes will be for Kyle Connor, Jake Oettinger,  [...]

Goaltending in fantasy hockey is fickle; hence, the popularity of Zero G and other methods of fading goalies. I won’t profess to being a hockey training expert, but it seems like performance is more psychologically-based at the goaltending position than at any other. Ilya Samsonov’s interview after Thursday’s debacle (five goals allowed in less than [...]

Looking Ahead: A Star-Studded Week

Welcome back everyone! Ah yes, the week before Christmas. If you’re like me you’re not only scrolling up and down Microsoft Teams looking at all the names with an OOO next to them, but also scanning the waiver looking for value. Probably more the latter, but that’s most days for me. Let’s see what we [...]

Ramblings: Ovechkin Breaks Goal Slump, Finally Timo Time, Vilardi Tops Hot List (Dec 22)

By |2023-12-22T01:55:29-05:00December 22nd, 2023|Hockey Rambling|

Gabriel Vilardi is the most-searched player on Frozen Tools as I write this, which makes sense because he should unquestionably be the top waiver-wire pickup of the past week. In case you haven’t been following, Vilardi has five goals and 10 points and a plus-10 over his last four games, which includes three multi-point games. [...]
