It’s been a fun week for your fantasy team, hasn’t it? At least no games were postponed today (not including ones that were previously), although it’s debatable as to whether certain games should have been played with undermanned rosters. Normally we try to help you dominate your week, but these uncertain times mean that it [...]
If your fantasy team has been ravaged by injuries, you might appreciate the December version of the Roto Rankings. There might be a record number of players hitting our injured list, meaning that they are removed from the rankings for the duration of their injury. Simply put, injury timelines are not definitive, even if there [...]
According to Stars GM Jim Nill, Ben Bishop won’t be able to play any longer. The veteran goalie was attempting to come back from knee surgery and hadn’t played since August 2020. Bishop recently completed an AHL conditioning assignment, but he gave up eight goals, likely figuring that the knee wouldn’t allow him to compete [...]
Sidney Crosby versus Alex Ovechkin matchups never get old, especially since we can still debate which player has had the better career and even which player is better right now. Even with both Crosby and Ovechkin recording two assists each, the Penguins came out on top 4-2. With the two assists, Crosby extended his point [...]
According to numerous reports, the Vancouver Canucks have replaced Travis Green with Bruce Boudreau as the team’s head coach. Several other changes are believed to be in the works, most notably Jim Benning being relieved of his duties as general manager. The Canucks have been a massive disappointment this season with an 8-15-2 record, last [...]
Ville Husso deserved a better fate on Saturday. The Blues goalie faced 51 shots through regulation and overtime before losing 4-3 in a matinee shootout in Florida. This is a situation where three goals allowed can still result in a quality start. Jordan Binnington has been in COVID protocol, and the Blues play four home [...]
Igor Shesterkin had to leave Friday’s game with a possible leg injury. The star goalie was helped off the ice after he appeared to stretch for a puck. After the game, Gerard Gallant said that the injury wasn’t as bad as it looked, which sounds like positive news. Shesterkin was playing an outstanding game that [...]
The Sabres-Panthers game ended with the outcome that you likely expected. It just took an unlikely turn at the beginning. Buffalo scored three first-period goals, two of which were from Vinnie Hinostroza. One of Dobber’s personal favorites, Hinostroza entered the game with just one point in his last five games. After the Sabres made it [...]
Ilya Sorokin aside, the Islanders have been a huge disappointment both in the standings and fantasy-wise. If you’re looking for an immediate turnaround, you’ll have to wait a little longer, as they’ve been placed on hold for at least the next two games due to COVID. The pause includes Sunday’s game against the Rangers and [...]
Happy belated Thanksgiving to all our American friends! Since Friday was Black Friday, we were treated to some daytime hockey, which is unusual for a weekday. Ryan Strome has extended his point streak to seven games with his goal and assist in Friday’s matinee. That gives him 12 points over his last 11 games as [...]
