The first edition of this list was put together last year, and it is something I am going to update at least once each season. I have a few general rules when it comes to building a team in a fantasy hockey keeper league. One of the more important ones is to not plan beyond a two or three year window. You are not building a real NHL club, and too often I see poolies place too much of an emphasis on youth and prospects instead of trying to add players who could help them win now.

 

Using this rule, take a look at your team(s). Can you realistically say you will have a shot at winning the league at some point within the next two or three seasons? If not, time to scrap the rebuild and start adding proven NHL talent.

  What an incredible hockey game.   Three points for Cody Eakin at the Mem Cup last night. Hell of a tournament to follow up a hell of a postseason. Eakin is a prospect who should be on your radar.   Is this the biggest game for the Bruins since 1979? How about since 2010? [...]

  Dobber here. Please bear with us as we go through some cosmetic changes. And the new banner is one we made several months ago - it is a placeholder until voting for players in the banner is complete. The nav. menu up top will soon be different and have drop options, and the nav [...]

  Ehrhoff is doubtful for tomorrow's game. Look for Keith Ballard to draw in. Don't expect to see Aaron Rome, either. Could see Chris Tanev or Andrew Alberts.   Manny Malhotra continues to improve each day...   Sounds like if/when Winnipeg joins the league, they will stay in the Southeast for scheduling reasons. I'm sure [...]

  Torontonians - looking for your vote/feedback on the possible date of an event. We will be celebrating the acquisition of Goalie Post sometime in mid-June and you're all invited to join myself (Dobber), Justin Goldman and Goalie Post's Jeff Hillen. I'm sure there will be a couple of other writers there as well (Anthony [...]

  One more point about the Prospects Report - as a poolie who uses a one-to-three year window to build my team, I absolutely love the 3YP (best three seasons of production) number that has been added to the guides this year.   The upside number is good and all, but often times players will [...]

  Goldie Says: Here's Nine Thoughts on Niko Hovinen and his new deal with the Flyers. This damages Eriksson and Riopel's long-term value. A phrase to describe Philly's goalie depth? Convoluted and over-saturated madness.   Chicago prospect Ivan Vishnevskiy is off to the KHL.   Pekka Rinne with a gem of an interview over at Puck Daddy. [...]

  Manny Malhotra skated for the sixth straight day today.   Patrice Bergeron also skated and looks to be progressing. He left before the contact began, but could be back for game three or four if he continues to improve at this rate.   Gates has posted his Top 100 Roto Players for May. Access [...]

  Since 1940, Kesler, Gretzky, Hull & Oates only players in on 75%+ of team's goals in a single playoff series. Per Jeff Patterson (Team 1040). Robin Lehner continued his fantastic playoff run for Binghamton with a 35 save shutout last night. The Baby Sens now have a two game lead over the Charlotte Checkers. [...]
