Back when I was writing the Wild West Column, every so often I would take a break from scorers and focus on some adds managers could make to boost their category coverage. This week I would like to dive back into the world of hits and blocks and take a look at multi-category players. We [...]

Back in April we did a small mini-series about fourth-year breakout candidates. In the first article we used the 4th Year Breakout Report and some sorting to come up with a list of potential break-out candidates. In the second, we examined a few in more depth, looking at their specific prospects in the lineup. When [...]

Two weeks ago we took a look at Matt Murray and Devan Dubnyk moving cities, and last week, inspired by the Taylor Hall move, we examined big-name wingers on the move over the last several seasons. This week, after some positive comments and questions about goalies we are essentially going to combine these two approaches [...]

You’ve probably heard by now that Taylor Hall has signed a deal to play in Buffalo. The surprising nature of the choice and the deal has led to a plethora of takes and articles. Dobber is no different with some references here, here, and here. It got me thinking though, this isn’t the first time [...]

Things are certainly moving along in this NHL ‘summer’. We have a Stanley Cup champion, we have drafted players, and we have a few trades. Dobber Hockey, as always, has hit the ground running with trade analysis for all the fantasy-worthy trades - giving you the takes you need to consider the fantasy impacts. There [...]

Back in June we ran a continuation of a series that had started when I was writing the Wild West column. We were looking at Unlikely Playoff Heroes. The idea was to try and figure out who might be players outside of the stars to target for your second tier of draft picks. These are [...]

Game three of the final wrapped up on Wednesday night with game four set to come out Friday (9/25). Both Tampa and Dallas have come to the finals with different strategies and different successes. In this week’s column it is time to take a look at the runs to the finals for both teams and [...]

Back in April we did a feature on 4th year breakouts, and then took a look at some players in their third year who had some solid potential to be 2020-21’s fourth-year breakout. This week I wanted to follow up on that article and see if more playoff games have given us any more information [...]

We have been following the playoffs for the last several weeks here at Frozen Tool Forensics and I wanted to continue that trend this week. So far we looked at potential targets in the Play-In rounds, some of the results of the Play-Ins, and then some high performers from the teams that were eliminated (see [...]
