Two games of playoff pucks on Friday. Let’s get to it. Panthers 6, Bruins 2 (Panthers lead series 2-1) After a fight-filled Game 2, the two teams were on much better behavior in Game 3, combining for just 16 penalty minutes. However, 12 of those minutes were from the Bruins, and the Panthers made them [...]
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 [...]

Playoff pucks again… Saturday featured four more games as the first round continues. Islanders 3, Hurricanes 2, 2 OT (Hurricanes lead series 3-1) The Islanders staved off elimination on Saturday, avoiding a sweep with a double-overtime goal from Mathew Barzal. The point shot from Robert Bortuzzo appeared to be deflected in by Barzal at 1:24 [...]
It’s all playoff pucks today. I’ll use that term because it was the name of the very first fantasy hockey article that I wrote way back in 2006 for a website that no longer exists. Canucks 2, Predators 1 (Canucks lead series 2-1) Just gotta catch my breath here… okay, I’m good. After looking a [...]
