You could trust the panel with your first-round picks this season, as they collectively went 7-for-8 in picking a winner. The only series the majority of Dobber writers got wrong was Boston over Toronto, which could have possibly gone either way because it went to overtime in Game 7. This was not the year that [...]
Every Sunday, we share 21 Fantasy Rambles from our writers at DobberHockey. These thoughts are curated from the past week's ‘Daily Ramblings’.

First off, I know you’re dying to read about that Game 7 unless you’re a Leafs fan. However, I have to start with an update from the man himself.

Only one game of playoff pucks on Thursday… and it was quite the night for Leafs fans. Maple Leafs 2, Bruins 1 (series tied 3-3) Maybe losing Auston Matthews was what the Leafs needed to figure out how to dig deep and play with passion. Of course it’s not as simple as that, but the [...]
As we are heading to the end of round one with a couple of series left, let’s take some time to analyze some of the series which have already concluded.
