COMPLETELY REWRITTEN DUE TO ALL THE DEALS - In Part 3 of this six-part series (by the way – I have updated the other two parts for any new trade rumors and recent deals that have gone down), we’ll take a team-by-team look at the Northeast Division. Buyers? Sellers? Who’s available? How can you prepare your fantasy roster for the upcoming address changes for some of these guys?

The Right Wing Rant

Fantasy hockey is like anything else, if you want to be good at it you need to put in your time.

Making the jump from point only leagues to standard rotisserie is a whole new game of puck. Roto leagues demand a different mindset from poolies when approaching the draft and trade table. There are many cases in which a stud in points-only could easily turn out to be a dud in roto (and vice versa). To your benefit, the Market Buzz series wastes no time in revealing a player’s true rotisserie value and focus on separating the underrated from the overrated.

Welcome back to An Expert’s Audit. I took a little time off to address some other issues but I’m hoping to be back on the horse regularly soon.

MacLean Getting Close

Brett MacLean

Brett MacLean has a knack for scoring goals. And since coaches need those to win games, the 22-year old Port Elgin native will no doubt find his way to the NHL one day. It’s just a question of when.

Looking Ahead – Week 19

By Dave Poleck|2015-07-24T10:23:22-04:00February 11th, 2011|Looking Ahead|

Getzlaf

When do your fantasy playoffs start? Does your league mirror the NHL and have your season run right up until game 82? Or do you end it a week early in fear of having your top guns taking a few games off to rest nagging injuries? Either way (I prefer the latter), if you plan your cards right, your ^sixth seeded team that barely made it could breeze to the finals, subsequently annoying your entire group of friends and giving you bragging rights for the summer.

Advantageous Situations

There are times during the season when certain players are given an opportunity to shake a season long funk or step up when a team mate succumbs to an injury. All fantasy owners know to watch out for this, but we are often too busy to recognize it before it is too later and a competitor swoops in and claims the glory.

Frolik traded to the Blackhawks

By Jeff Angus|2015-07-24T10:23:30-04:00February 10th, 2011|Fantasy Take - Latest NHL Moves|

Frolik

Fantasy Impact: Chicago has acquired skilled winger Michal Frolik from the Florida Panthers in exchange for Jack Skille. There are other moving parts in the deal, but it essentially breaks down to Frolik for Skille swap. I guess Dale Tallon doesn’t subscribe to the “don’t sell low” theory.
