Ramblings: Miller Salvaging Something, Rangers Turning to Youth, DeBrincat Piling up Points and Shots (Mar 28)

By |2026-03-28T00:18:39-04:00March 28th, 2026|Hockey Rambling|

The New York Rangers have officially been eliminated from the playoffs, but they still provided a number of storylines to discuss today thanks to a 6-1 win over Chicago on Friday. J.T. Miller has failed to deliver for fantasy teams this season (Yahoo ADP 45), but he at least provided something in an important fantasy [...]

Top 100 Roto Rankings: March 2026

By |2026-03-15T14:43:43-04:00March 15th, 2026|Hockey Rankings|

The final month of the fantasy hockey season is upon us. For many teams, this means assembling a lineup without a key player or two heading into the fantasy playoffs. In other words, your league championship this year may simply be a war of attrition. But isn’t that what the Stanley Cup playoffs already are? [...]

Ramblings: Matthews Gone For Season, Gudas Suspended 5 Games, Blues Remain Hot, Fantasy Playoffs (Mar 14)

By |2026-03-14T00:48:45-04:00March 14th, 2026|Hockey Rambling|

An MRI confirmed the worst for Auston Matthews, who will miss the rest of the regular season with a Grade 3 MCL tear and quad contusion. In case you missed it, Matthews was injured on a knee-on-knee hit from Radko Gudas during the second period of Thursday’s game against Anaheim. https://twitter.com/MapleLeafs/status/2032598575428022668 Given the recent winless [...]

Ramblings: Jack Hughes Hat Trick, Sanderson Injured, New Team Debuts (Mar 8)

By |2026-03-08T03:22:10-04:00March 8th, 2026|Hockey Rambling|

Jack Hughes’s hat trick on Saturday seemed long overdue. American hero Hughes scored four goals in the Olympics, including the famous one that secured a gold medal. However, he entered Saturday’s game with just a single goal in his last 23 games. It is worth noting that Hughes accrued 19 assists over that 23-game stretch [...]

Ramblings: Kadri Back to Colorado on Trade Deadline Day, Hintz Injured, Kreider Heating Up (Mar 7)

By |2026-03-07T01:46:15-05:00March 7th, 2026|Hockey Rambling|

The trade deadline has now come and gone. You can view trades both big and small on the Trade Deadline Tracker, including links to Fantasy Takes and Forum posts. Cliffy, Alex, and Puneet took care of the Fantasy Takes for you (in particular Cliffy, who worked like a madman today). I also threw in a [...]

Fantasy Take: Garland Traded to Columbus for Picks

By |2026-03-06T01:37:31-05:00March 6th, 2026|Fantasy Take - Latest NHL Moves|

The Vancouver Canucks have traded right wing Conor Garland to the Columbus Blue Jackets for a 2026 third-round pick and a 2028 second-round pick. From the Blue Jackets’ side: The Blue Jackets receive Garland, a middle-six winger who has been a consistent 45-to-55-point player during his 4+ seasons with the Canucks. The smallish (5-10, 165 [...]

Ramblings: Cozens Contributing, Vasilevskiy Pulled, Johnson Healthy Scratched (Mar 1)

By |2026-03-01T01:44:22-05:00March 1st, 2026|Hockey Rambling|

With all the rumors floating around, I’m surprised that no deals were announced on Saturday. Trade deadline day in recent seasons seemed to have a bunch of small deals with the bigger trades taking place earlier, like on the weekend. Although Saturday did not feature any major trades, it did have plenty of NHL action [...]
