It’s time to empty the mailbag for the final time not just in 2020 but also, fingers crossed, before the 2020-21 season begins. For new readers, this is a column where I answer your fantasy hockey questions while also giving advice that should be useful to all poolies even if they don’t own the specific [...]
Every NHL player peaks at some point in his career. From there, usually, the downward descent is slow, with it being several more seasons before he either retires or ceases to become fantasy relevant.

Welcome back to Forum Buzz, where I peruse the DobberHockey Forums and weigh in on active, heavily debated, or otherwise relevant recent threads, reminding folks just how great a resource the Forums are. Nearly anything might be covered here, other than trades and signings, which usually get their own separate write-ups on the main site and are also normally [...]
Welcome back to Goldipucks and the Three Skaters, a play on words of the Goldilocks and the Three Bears story. Here though, instead of there being three bowls of porridge I'm covering three skaters and declaring one too hot (i.e., doing unsustainably better than he should), another too cold (i.e., doing unsustainably worse), and a [...]

Now that the dust has settled for the most part on free agent signings, poolies are left to wonder what the ramifications might be for their players or their teams as a whole. Have no fear, as the mailbag is a resource for me to answer your fantasy hockey questions while also giving advice that [...]
Although most recent attention of poolies has rightfully been paid to free-agent signings and trades, and their ripple effect in fantasy, let’s not forget there was also a little thing called the NHL Entry Draft earlier this month.
