There has been a lot of chatter over the last several months when it comes to goaltenders and contracts. There was Jeremy Swayman in Boston who didn’t get his extension until the weekend and thus didn’t start the season opener. There was also Ilya Sorokin and Connor Hellebuyck starting their new $8M+ AAV deals this [...]
Welcome to another year of the Injury Ward. Here you will find the latest NHL injury updates with a focus on fantasy-relevant news and also which players may benefit from these situations. My name is Blake Creamer and I will be tackling this topic every single week. I want this article to work for you, [...]
I’m taking a break from regularly scheduled Roos Lets Loose content, since it’s a bit too early to dissect data for the current season. But at the same time, decisions made, and actions taken - or not taken – at this juncture can be among the most consequential. That begs the question of when to [...]
I had a little too much time to look at the BUF/NJ games. I made an effort not to get caught up in small sample sizes, but it's inevitable to some degree at this point in the season. Regardless, there are a few points that I thought were with making. Dylan Cozens had eight shots [...]

Whether he lasts the season or is sent down after [...]
This year we finally released Dobbernomics without the Beta tag. Over the last couple of years we have observed and fixed flaws and loopholes in the game, as well as implemented user suggestions. We now feel that this game is ready for full rollout. As always, there was a snafu immediately after the first game [...]

I’m only going to look at the West, so I won’t be including Matvei Michkov or any Eastern Calder candidates. I’m going to divide the rookies into dark horses and front runners. [...]
HOCKEY IS BACK, PEOPLE! Ditch the pumpkin spice-infused anything and hide the scented candles and harvest-themed throw pillows, the real reason we all love fall is upon us: it’s time to tap back into our favourite game played on a 200-foot sheet of ice.
