Congratulations to the Vegas Golden Knights for winning the Stanley Cup. I don’t know that many had the Golden Knights taking it all at the start of the playoffs (at least none of our writers did), but this was a team that had the best record in the Western Conference while finishing fourth overall. Not [...]
Now that the Stanley Cup has been handed out, the offseason begins. Since the playoffs aren’t filled with much player news, there are only minor tweaks to the Top 100 from May. Regardless, we’ve shuffled a few players, in particular goalies. As what should be a busy offseason is about to begin, expect more significant [...]
In just their sixth NHL season, the Vegas Golden Knights are one win away from a Stanley Cup. Golden Knights 3, Panthers 2 (Golden Knights lead series 3-1) Chandler Stephenson was the scoring hero for the Golden Knights in Game 4, scoring the first two goals of the game. Stephenson is now up to 10 [...]
Just when you thought the Blue Jackets couldn’t add any more defensemen, they surprised everyone by acquiring Damon Severson in a sign and trade from Columbus for a third-round pick. And he’s getting paid – eight years at $6.25 million per season. I don’t think this trade affects Severson as much as some of the [...]
It’s the year 2023. You’re watching a Stanley Cup Final that features a team from Las Vegas against a team from just outside Miami. Now imagine that you are telling this to the version of yourself from 20, 30, 40, or 50 years ago (depending how far back you can go). Would you have believed [...]
Don’t forget to purchase and download your Fantasy Prospects Report, which is now available at the Dobber Sports store! I’ve combed through the profiles for players on my larger salary cap keeper team, and I’m sure many of you that have bought the guide have done the same for your teams. This team of mine [...]
The Fantasy Hockey Prospects Report was released on Thursday. Make sure you have your copy so that you can answer your own burning questions, such as what is Connor Bedard’s upside or where Luke Hughes is ranked among prospect defensemen. Both are actual questions that I had, since I’m thrilled to say that I will [...]
The Stanley Cup Final starts on Saturday. One finalist was the top seed in its conference. The other finalist is an 8-seed giant killer that has knocked off three of the top four teams (by points) in its conference. Easy pick for the panel to make, right? Well, you’ll soon find out. The writers didn’t [...]
After another sweep seemed inevitable following a disastrous Game 3 for Dallas, the Western Conference Final has slowly but surely become a whole lot more interesting. Stars 4, Golden Knights 2 (Golden Knights lead series 3-2) Ty Dellandrea’s two third-period goals within 1:27 of each other were the difference in this game, where the [...]
The Eastern Conference Final had its moments, but for the sake of competition I hope the Stanley Cup Final requires more games to complete. Despite being swept, the Hurricanes deserved a better fate, since they lost all four games by one goal and two in overtime. In fact, the shot total over the four games [...]
