Fantasy Hockey Top 10

I’m pretty fit for 45. Not Zdeno Chara fit, but between kettlebells in the morning and training to race mountain bikes in the evening, I can forget I am middle aged. I can forget, that is, until my competitive juices get flowing and pretty soon I am sprinting up stairs, having a chin up contest, [...]

I announced to my wife it is Bubble Keeper Week. She had the look on her face she gets when worried I have spent a large amount of money on a new hobby. I have no idea what she was imagining I might have bought. Bubble wands? Some sort of bubble storage device? To set [...]

After an eight-year hiatus, the Puck Pastor is back at DobberHockey. This time around with Dobber, I am filling in for a few weeks for Tom Collins. I doubt anyone remembers my old column, but if you did you would remember I tried to be true to the “Puck Pastor” moniker and weave some life [...]

We are only a couple of days away from what may be one of the quietest days in free agency history. With NHL teams not seeing an increase in cap space, many squads may choose not to stay quiet on the opening day of free agency on Wednesday, July 28. Instead, teams may have to [...]

The big news of the weekend deals with the Seattle Kraken and the list of players who were left available for potential selection in the expansion draft.
