Detroit welcomed Jake Walman back to practice on Monday after he missed three games due to a lower-body injury. Walman has 12 goals and 21 points in 61 games this season, but his 150 blocked shots have been a huge boon for fantasy managers. There is a little bit more on Walman and defence partner [...]
The Stanley Cup. There’s something tantalizingly mystifying about the best trophy in sports. Even mentioning it can conjure up the kind of excitement that makes watching springtime NHL hockey so uniquely awesome. With most teams in the league having already eclipsed the 70-game mark, the push to the Cup is most definitely on - buckle [...]
This week, I will go through Minnesota to Winnipeg in the West and look at some players who spent at least 30 games in the AHL and who we could see get some playing time the rest of the year or next season in the NHL. I will only consider players who are 25 years [...]

With two years left on his entry level deal after this one, it’s not tough to see why. The slightly less expected name in the top-10 is Noah Dobson, [...]
Ahead of Sunday’s game against the Jets, Washington recognized T.J. Oshie for reaching the 1000-game milestone recently.

Proving that no goalie is immune to a rough start during the fantasy playoffs, Connor Hellebuyck was pulled midway through the game against the Islanders after allowing five goals. Granted, he had already faced 27 shots, so the blame isn’t necessarily on Hellebuyck personally and can at least be partially shifted to the team in [...]
