Capped

  This week we’re going to jump back into analyzing players on a cost-per-point basis. Two weeks ago, we covered some of the top performers, and some of them have already come back to earth a little. With the season almost a month old already, players who are slumping have given us a large enough [...]

  Last week here we covered some of the best early-season performers on a cost-per-point basis, and next week we’ll dive into some disappointments, but this week I decided (with the help of some readers as well) that it was time for some cap league goalie coverage. Let’s begin the goalie rant!   **** Marc-Andre [...]

  A couple weeks into the season, and Tampa Bay has lost to Ottawa, Jonathan Quick, Sergei Bobrovsky and Brayden Holtby have been worse than their backups, the highest scorer on Vancouver is J.T. Miller, and the Hurricanes are atop the NHL standings (as of Wednesday night). Some things are easier for us to see [...]

  A week into the season and we have some surprises – both positive and negative – as well as some early season line changes and injury news. With all of this, it is easy to overreact, and hamstring your chances of bouncing back from a bad start. Like with driving on ice, sometimes you [...]

  Hello and welcome to the beginning of the NHL season. We have your Cap League info covered, and what you most want to know right now, are who the best depth players are for you to fill out your roster with. Maybe fantasy owners are looking for replacements for players who were sent down? [...]

  Happy Thursday everyone, and what a fine day it is. The cap rankings were posted yesterday, and from here on out they should be smooth sailing through the season – likely updated every two months. You can find them here. I summed up my initial thoughts on the project in an article from back [...]

  Welcome to week seven, which concludes our buy/sell features. We also have actual NHL hockey to watch (though it’s only preseason games), and there are somehow still a bunch of very skilled RFAs left unsigned. To recap, in the buy and sell features, I profile one player per team to sell, and one to [...]

  Welcome to week six – we’re almost at the end! (Both of the offseason and the buy/sell series.) To recap, in the buy and sell features, I profile one player per team to sell, and one to buy. These recommendations are based on salary cap leagues, and I try to cover various league sizes [...]

  Welcome to week five. I’m back from getting married (!), taking our honeymoon, and somehow keeping away from hockey for those entire two weeks away. The time away from hockey was easier to bear than I thought it would be, but at the same time it is nice to be back, and with only [...]

  Welcome to week four. To recap, in the buy and sell features, I profile one player per team to sell, and one to buy. These recommendations are based on salary cap leagues, and I try to cover various league sizes and categories. Last year we started alphabetically at the bottom, so this year we’re [...]
