Alex Goligoski has a lower body injury that will sideline him for 2-3 weeks. The team is already missing Letang, Orpik and Gonchar. Letang is still a week or two away. Look for the Pens to make a small deal - either a trade or waiver wire - to solve the problem. Because Nate Guenin [...]
The ranking reflects the statistics accrued through Nov 13th and does not compensate for games missed. So although somebody like Malkin is projected for large numbers, his injury affected his ranking.
I decided to change pace slightly this month because of the abundance of new names on this chart. I have taken the consensus pre-season projections I collected (6 fantasy sources) and offered a comparison to where their 2010 statistics have projected them forward. Will they be able to hold on? Or are they one-hit wonders?
Nik Kronwall has seven points in his last three games. After 12 points in 11 games, Matt Carle has zero in his last five. The stats are re-setting for a lot of players these days - falling back into line. Joni Pitkanen still hasn't recovered from what Angus termed "suckitis". He is pointless [...]
Notch's NHL picks for Saturday, November 14th.
Crazynuck steps up and delivers the goods once again for all you poolies. Having a tough time figuring out your lineup for this coming week? Your prayers have been answered.
Carolina is winless in their last 13 games (0-10-3) and have only seven points in 17 games (2-12-3) on the season, good for last place in the entire NHL. They look nothing like the team that eliminated the third seed New Jersey Devils and one seed Boston Bruins in last year’s playoffs.
You draft players to your fantasy squad, not coaches. But coaching obviously can alter a team’s on-ice personality and impact their performance. So what happens to a team when a defensive-minded coach takes over?
Let’s take a look at how Jacques Lemaire’s return to New Jersey has affected your beloved Devils.
A very big and heartfelt thank you to all who serve, or have served Canada and the United States in the name of freedom. Both JVR and Briere are probable for tomorrow night's contest. This could be an interesting one, although he'll likely see more time in the press box than not, but [...]
Since the Rangers don't play tonight, obviously the below statement is speaking about their next game. Lundqvist is rumored to be nursing a lower body injury, possibly his groin according to Larry Brooks. He will be scratched tonight. If you are desperate for goaltending, you may want to nab Valiquette and hope that Lundy [...]
Tomorrow's THN article is on the St. Louis Blues and their sputtering offense - a player by player forecast. Another thought on Ovechkin - he's a prankster so he may have been kidding with Chesnokov and us fantasy junkies started frothing at the mouth. But I wonder why the Caps PR people started denying [...]
