As keeper league hockey pools increase in number each year, fantasy junkies become more active in the off-season as they prepare their team for the coming year. Rebuild? Retool? Tweak? Whatever your intentions, it helps to get all the information you can about your players.

Throughout the off-season, FPL will look at a pair of teams each week and give you the fantasy lowdown. Bucking the trend of past years, we will review alphabetically – in reverse. Just to be different.

(This column was originally published by The Hockey News and MSN.ca. ESPN no longer carries it due to their recent purchase of The Talented Mr. Roto. In this man's opinion, when the bigwigs get their claws into a fantasy site, the hockey section suffers. Yet another reason why DobberHockey is the best damn fantasy hockey source out there!)

I apologize for all the emails I am not responding to. I'd like to say I'm reading them, but if I see that it's a fantasy question and it's long-winded, I pretty much don't even do that. I know this is an important month, but you can imagine how busy I am with everything this [...]

How to Start a Keeper League – Version #6 This 'Lifetime Insanity Pool' is fairly typical, but it puts heavier emphasis on defensemen scoring. It also requires roster updates every two weeks, i.e. choose the 16 guys you would like to activate. They also make it clear that wimps need not apply - strict rules [...]

The expert draft is starting shortly after 10. I posted a thread in the "one year" section of the forum that I will maybe try and update occasionally if there is time... Ryan Stone has a goal and three assists for the Penguins in two games in the rookie tournament. He is still battling problems with [...]

Rookie Battles in the West

By Dobber Sports|2007-09-09T23:28:32-04:00September 9th, 2007|The Dobotomy|

Camps open up in three days (in the case of Anaheim and Los Angeles – they are already open) and hockey poolies are very interested in the kids that will be in camp with a legitimate shot at a roster spot. This week (as well as last), we’ll analyze the odds of a rookie cracking the lineup and what kind of impact we can expect to see in the campaign ahead.

Article will be later tonight. Things came up today... Jakub Voracek scored two goals and added an assist in yesterday's 8-3 win over the Wild in a rookie game. The Red Wings are going to likely start camp with Datsyuk centering the top line with Holmstrom and Franzen as his wingers, while Zetterberg will center Samuelsson and [...]

“Schedule rating” is a reflection of the amount of games that a team will play in the seven-day period given, in conjunction with two other factors: 1) The amount of those games that are played at home. 2) The quality of team defense that they will be up against. DobberHockey reader Tom Reeve (aka [...]

Mac T on Robert Nilsson: "We have him pencilled in right now," said MacTavish. "It's up to him what he does with it, but we do have a spot for him. We saw him play last year in the playoffs in Wilkes-Barre. We need some power play help and he has the ability to do [...]

UPCOMING...ON DOBBERHOCKEY.COM One small point I missed reporting in yesterday's ramblings: Scott Niedermayer will also miss the first two games of the regular season for sure - he will not be travelling to England with the team. It's looking as if he will miss all of October at the very least, so best-case scenario for [...]
