By |2024-11-18T01:35:02-05:00November 18th, 2024|Hockey Rambling|

Carolina, who averages the most shots for and the fewest against, experienced a rarity on Sunday as they were outshout by the Blues. Still, they pulled out a 4-1 victory over St. Louis. Pyotr Kochetkov had a strong showing, stopping 29 of the 30 shots he faced. Kochetkov has been better when busy this season. [...]

Hi friends, it’s Brennan filling in for the handsome and talented Alex MacLean today, but fear not, he should be back next week. Let’s get right into Tuesday’s action! The Bruins-Flyers game featured two goaltenders with hideous numbers to start the year. Joonas Korpisalo and his .850 SV% + 4.57 GAA went up against Samuel [...]

Ramblings: Edmonton’s Power Play; Peaking Dach; Goals Galore for Caufield, Hischier & Colton (Oct 28)

By |2024-10-28T01:22:38-04:00October 28th, 2024|Hockey Rambling|

Celebrating a birthday that equates his age with his jersey number, Leon Draisaitl had a hand in all of Edmonton’s goals en route to a 3-2 overtime victory over the Red Wings. #29 had a slow start to the season, posting just one point in his first three outings, but has since rebounded with nine [...]

Ramblings: Ross Goal-ton; Jarry & Bunting Benched; Annunen & Dostal Excel; Adding Frost, Noesen & OEL (Oct 21)

By |2024-10-21T00:06:42-04:00October 21st, 2024|Hockey Rambling|

With a 6-3 victory over Pittsburgh, Winnipeg remains the only undefeated team this season, sporting a 5-0 record. Kyle Connor and Mark Scheifele have been integral to the Jets’ success, scoring on Sunday and finding the scoresheet in every game thus far. Both players are riding five-game point streaks. Nikolaj Ehlers and his deft playmaking [...]

Ramblings: Gustavsson & Hellebuyck Shine; Flames Hot, Oilers Not; Streaming Avs in Week 2 (Oct 14)

By |2024-10-14T01:31:40-04:00October 14th, 2024|Hockey Rambling|

Three games, three wins for Connor Hellebuyck and the Winnipeg Jets. Hellebuyck has conceded just two goals over these three games, stopping 81 of 83 shots, and handsomely rewarding fantasy managers that used an early pick to acquire him.  With a goal and assist against Minnesota, Mark Scheifele has now posted two points in each [...]

Ramblings: A Fantasy Question for All 32 Teams; Streaming Options for Week 1; Swayman Signs (Oct 7)

By |2024-10-06T22:13:26-04:00October 7th, 2024|Hockey Rambling|

With the 2024-25 campaign set to kick off in North America tomorrow, I thought we’d start today’s Ramblings with a fantasy question facing each team this season. Let’s get into it! Anaheim Ducks What will Anaheim’s power play look like? The Ducks split time evenly between two units last year, but that could change this [...]

Ramblings: Hanifin & Ehlers on PP1; Underrated Third Wheels in Novak, Killorn, Tatar & Smith (Sep 30)

By |2024-09-30T00:20:25-04:00September 30th, 2024|Hockey Rambling|

https://twitter.com/SinBinVegas/status/1839741207939035536 It looks like Noah Hanifin has the luxury of starting on Vegas’ top power play, but Shea Theodore will be champing at the bit if he falters. The sample is small but after Hanifin was promoted to the top unit on April 2nd, he racked up eight power-play points in 14 games over the [...]

Ramblings: Do Players Perform Better When They Need a New Contract? (Sep 23)

By |2024-09-22T14:09:53-04:00September 23rd, 2024|Hockey Rambling, Latest|

When sharing five tips for your fantasy draft, I made the obvious claim that not every player elevates their game when they’re in the final year of a contract. One of our lovely readers, Glenn, aptly pointed out that having real data behind that claim would make it more useful. If pending UFAs elevate their [...]
