Fantasy Hockey Top 10

When it comes to peripherals and fantasy hockey leagues, it's always the same players who are sought-after commodities and seem to get all the hype. However, it's always a smart move to see if other players can offer the same type of peripherals but may still be available on the waiver wire. For this list, [...]

We are at the one-quarter mark of the season, and some prominent players haven't figured out how to score when their team is up a man. Much of this has to do with the team they are on. Have a look at the worst teams for power-play effectiveness: The Islanders, Golden Knights, Canadiens, Penguins, Coyotes, [...]

It's always tough to assess which surprise players can keep up their hot starts, but figuring it out will go a long way to winning you a championship. Obviously, you don't need to be an expert in fantasy hockey to know that Connor McDavid will keep putting up points. But what about those that no [...]

Glass half-full or half-empty? That was the general theme of last week's column, when we looked at disappointing players where fantasy general managers could still hold on to some optimism that things will turn around. While researching that column, however, I found it's tough to be optimistic about everyone. There are plenty of players that, [...]

Now that most NHL teams are at the 10-game mark of the season, fantasy general managers are trying to get a sense of where they stand with their team.  It's not easy. It seems as if there are more than the usual number of injuries to top stars this year, plus Covid protocols are also [...]

No matter how excellent we draft or how often we fleece our fellow general managers in trades, we often find ourselves scouring the waiver wire for help. This year appears to be worse than usual, at least so far. Not only do we have to deal with injuries, but Covid protocols are also forcing many [...]

We're less than a week into the season, but it's never too early to have a look at who is getting opportunities and who is struggling early in the season. It may seem utterly unfair to judge the players now. After all, we're dealing with an extremely small sample size. Six teams have played just [...]

We're one day from the start of the NHL season, and every fantasy general manager is full of hope and optimism. After all, you made all the shrewd drafts picks and obviously won every trade.

One of the best feelings in fantasy hockey is when a player you believe in breaks through for a monster season.
