Mike Babcock has resigned as the head coach of the Columbus Blue Jackets, with associate coach Pascal Vincent being promoted to head coach. Babcock was officially hired on July 1 and had not yet coached a game for the team. However, he ran into hot water when reports surfaced that he had viewed players’ private [...]
Since I tend to study players that I add to my team fairly closely, I’m going to discuss three players that I’ve added to my dynasty team this offseason. One of these players is Connor Bedard, who I was able to add because I won my league’s draft lottery tournament. There are already a ton [...]
In case you missed it, we’ve made some major changes to the Top 100 Roto Rankings for September. If you’re participating in any multicategory league drafts soon, I encourage you to have a look. https://twitter.com/Ian_Gooding/status/1702685723667935734 As I’ve always said, feel free to leave feedback. In making these changes, I’m hoping that we are being more [...]
Hi everyone. Ian here. Just in time for single-season fantasy drafts, I have some important changes to announce for the Top 100 Roto Rankings. First, I’d like to introduce Bangers Fantasy Hockey. If you’re on Twitter, you might be familiar with their work on player cards such as the one below. You can follow them [...]
Look for the Roto Rankings to be released today with some major changes. I will have full details then. As a spoiler, I’m going to be receiving some assistance and insight that I think will make the rankings even better. Another spoiler: There will be changes to some of the categories used to rank players. [...]
First, an update on what I wrote yesterday. It appears that Yahoo has updated its forward positions to give some wingers their rightful designations. I’m not going to take credit for the update, simply because a) the update was probably in the works before the Ramblings were published, and b) others, such as Shayna Goldman, [...]
I don’t have any specific data on this, but Yahoo is probably the most-used fantasy hockey platform out there. That’s why it’s unfortunate when they can’t seem to get the positions right for a significant number of forwards. In particular, many wingers are listed as centers. Here’s an example: https://twitter.com/keepingkarlsson/status/1698785592249573601 I should start this by [...]
For the last 20 years (12 with The Hockey News) Dobber has reviewed each team from a fantasy-hockey standpoint and graded them. The 21st annual review will appear here on DobberHockey throughout the summer. This is not a review of the likely performance on the ice or in the standings, but in the realm of [...]

Yesterday I listed some potential sleepers for the upcoming season. Not all of them might qualify as sleepers in your league – yes, shout out to those of you who didn’t think Evan Bouchard was a sleeper. It all depends on the type of league (keeper/non-keeper) and the size. What if I said don’t sleep [...]
