Fantasy Hockey Top 10

One of the best tools on this site is the hot/cold tool that you can find here. I try to look at it once every couple of weeks to see if there are under-the-radar players that might be found lurking. It doesn’t take a genius to realize elite players such as Connor McDavid, Patrick Kane [...]

Even though we’re about six weeks into the season, there are still plenty of good options on the waiver wire that can help your squad contend for your fantasy hockey championship. There are always players just waiting to be plucked. It’s just a matter of going through the waiver wire to find those players. Ideally, [...]

Sometimes it’s tough in fantasy hockey to know what to do with top players when they struggle. Players you draft in the 15th round are easy drops if they are struggling.

We’re only a couple of games into the campaign, but it’s already worth noting which players are starting with more power-play time than many of us anticipated. No exhibition games made it tough for fantasy general managers to get a firm grasp on plans for many of the teams. Many of us were taking guesses, [...]

Each season, fantasy general managers go into their drafts wanting to grab the shiny new toy.

You see plenty written about Alexis Lafreniere, Tim Stuetzle, Kirill Kaprizov, Marco Rossi and goalies Igor [...]
