Drake Batherson filled the statsheet for the Senators in their 5-4 win over Tampa Bay: two goals (one on the power play), one assist, seven shots, and two hits. It’s been feast or famine for Batherson this season, as this is his second three-point game. He hasn’t registered a point in his other three games. [...]

Including overtimes, the defending Cup champion Florida Panthers have lost as many games (three) as Tampa, [...]

With 14 shots over his four games, Stamkos’ 3.5 SOG/GP is as high as it has been [...]

We’re barely a week into the season, and already the questions are pouring in about whether to drop a struggling goalie. In fact, it’s a usual rite of passage of every fantasy hockey season.
