For your listening pleasure - put it on your Ipod or just listen in on your computer! Dobber Nation appears on the 25th of every month, except December (Christmas). Let's talk some fantasy hockey!
Quitters Never Win and Winners Never Quit
The fourth month of the 2010-11 fantasy season is just about over, so we’ll return to the old format and take a look at all of the Western Conference teams and see what could be in store for them moving forward.
What are the Chances?
Another week goes by, another set of prospects get thrown into the NHL fire. On Saturday, it was Braden Holtby shutting down Toronto and receiving high praise from Don Cherry. Less than 24 hours later, Jacob Markstrom made his NHL debut in relief of Scott Clemmensen and suffered the loss.
