Happy 2023 everyone! I hope that you all had a very happy and safe New Year’s and wishing nothing but the best in 2023. This week has been a difficult one to navigate for most fantasy players out there with the smaller slate for the Winter Classic, along with a high amount of roster moves [...]
Welcome back everyone! I hope that everyone out there had a happy and safe holiday, but now it’s time to focus back in on fantasy hockey and DFS. I mean, it’s either that or check all the emails you’ve missed while you have been out of office? The answer here to me is obvious, let’s [...]

Whether or not we all want to admit it, if you’re in more than one fantasy league, there’s always one league that you likely give favor to.
