I’m going to look at players from each team in the Western Conference and see what skaters have dropped or gone up a tier or two this season (2024-25) compared to last season (2023-24). These are tiers I’ve just made up for this article so please don’t confuse this with other Tiers you have seen [...]
Today, we are going to go through each team in the Western Conference to see which players made any of Team Canada, USA, Sweden or Finland for the 4-Nations Face Off happening in February 2025. The tournament is a round-robin of three games with the top two teams playing in a one game final. It [...]
Today, I’m going to list the MVP(s) from each Western Team and make mention of any other players who were in the running after 20 or so games. My choices are a little slanted towards multi-category fantasy pools where more than points matter. Anaheim Ducks I’m going to split this between Lukas Dostal and John [...]
I thought we could check in on some of the young prospects who are in the AHL and see how they are doing and what progression/regression that they might be showing. I’m not going to include players who are currently in the NHL or players over the age of 25. Check out Part One here! [...]

I had included 23 sleeper picks in the 2024-2025 Dobber Fantasy Guide and was curious to see how each of them was doing to this point in the regular season. It’s still early to have a conclusion on most, but there are some that are already in the trash. In 2023-2024, I had included 20 [...]
We ran a power play article a few weeks back and I thought it would be interesting to see what changes to the power play units teams from the West have made in the past three weeks. Changes can happen quickly! Anaheim Ducks (27th in the NHL at 13.9%; 5 goals/36 PP opportunities) Players that [...]
We are going to look at some sell-high candidates from the Western Conference. I’m going to look at shooting percentage, PDO and 5on5 shooting percentage (5on5%). It’s not that some of these players won’t get to the levels they are currently at some time in the future, but they will have a very difficult time [...]
Most teams have now played between four and six games in 2024-25 and we might be able to glean an idea of how each team is deploying their lineup and what players are off to good starts and what players are struggling. Anaheim Ducks Cutter Gauthier (5-0-0-0) and Alex Killorn (5-0-0-0) have both gotten off [...]
Some teams have only played one or two games, so this is a very early look at what players are on what power play unit on each team in the West. These could change by the next game, but it gives us an idea who the coaches see as the options on their teams right [...]
