Taking a look at some interesting line combos across the league...
It felt like a week perfect for Sidney Crosby until the weekend reared its ugly head. Suddenly the stakes rise a bit and Week 3 featured a new cast of line combinations with some familiar faces along the way. As we head into the middle of February, it is time to go “Between The Lines” once again for fantasy goodness.
Forward March……
This week, I take a look at Alex Killorn, Joe Morrow, Jordan Schroeder's great play in Vancouver, Nazem Kadri's surprising physical presence, and more.
My first attempt at starting a keeper league ended in domination – and disaster.
In this weeks report we look at updates, players recently injured, the resulting suspensions, and more.
There are just three weeks to go in the fantasy hockey season. We do want to remind people of the potential AlexRadulov return. Please check your leagues to see about availability but ESPN definitely has him in their database.Anyway, most leagues continue their playoffs this week and it is time to go “Between The Lines” once again.
Jason Farris, author of Behind the Moves, and currently a member of the front office for the Dallas Stars, has written a number of hockey books. Behind the Moves, a book I reviewed last fall, presents the reader with an in-depth look at the history and current status of hockey’s general managers. One of Jason’s first books, Hail Cesare!, describes the evolution of goaltending in the 1960’s and 70’s through the eyes and mask of goaltender Cesare Maniago.
Things are heating up in the polls as we close in on deciding who the best fantasy player is - only 12 left standing...
Apparently there are a ton of fun things you can do with chalk. One thing that isn’t much fun is going chalk in a bracket tournament. In that regard you guys are total bores (at least this round anyway). After the previous round of polls yielded two upsets you guys decided to go straight chalk in the first half of the Sweet Sixteen. I am not complaining though, I just love the irony that a “fantasy” game could yield such unimaginative results.
Brian Burke - the best man for the job in Toronto - The worst franchise that I have ever seen was the 2008-09 version of the Toronto Maple Leafs. They had little in the way of draft picks, their farm system was disgusting, and their pro team was filled with untradeable contracts. There wasn’t one franchise in the NHL that I would swap for the Leafs. They were horrible in every sense of the word.
The worst mistake losing poolies can make down the stretch is to tune out their teams entirely.
