Fantasy Hockey Life: Salary Cap Leagues Part 2
Part 2 of Victor and Jesse's 3 part salary cap series is here. This week we share thoughts on how to manage your salary cap teams and organize for the season.
Wild West – Regular Season MVPs and MDPs
This week we’re going to look at each team in the Western Conference and name an MVP and an MDP (most disappointing player). I’m going to exclude players who were out with an injury for more than three-quarters of the season, but focus more on players who just didn’t perform up to expectations. Anaheim Ducks [...]
Top 10 Disappointing Netminders of 2022-23
A couple of my top 10 columns over the past few weeks have focused on surprising forwards and defensemen of 2022-23. With scoring up to 3.18 goals per game per team (the highest since 1993-94), it was pretty easy to find some of the most surprising skaters. The most difficult was limiting it to 10 [...]
21 Fantasy Hockey Rambles
Every Sunday, we share 21 Fantasy Rambles from our writers at DobberHockey. These thoughts are curated from the past week's ‘Daily Ramblings’. Writers/Editors: Ian Gooding, Michael Clifford, Alexander MacLean and Dobber — 1. The cap-strapped Vegas Golden Knights attempted their own Nikita Kucherov salary cap strategy, activating Mark Stone just in time for the playoffs. [...]
The Journey: Young Players Who Outperformed Expectations in 2022-23
Welcome back to The Journey, where we track the development of prospects as they excel in junior, make the NHL, and push towards stardom. Although we are in the midst of playoff action—and wow, do I ever miss this time of year!—fantasy managers have already begun performing retrospectives on their rosters, assessing strengths and deficiencies [...]
Saturday’s Game Props: Colorado For a Road Win
Writing Thursday and Saturday this week, I can both smile that I picked DFS players from all four winning squads in my last article, and also take my lumps having missed any winning bets. Game props might be easier….or not. Gold selection: Colorado Avalanche @ Seattle Kraken - Pick: Avalanche to win (-155 ML) The [...]
DFS Saturday: Ranger Rampage
I know it is said every year, but the Stanley Cup Playoffs truly never disappoint. Following Game 2 for all eight of the series, six of them are square at a game a piece and there’s been some great games already with three overtime games and a few comeback wins from teams trailing by multiple [...]
Top 100 Keeper League Goalies – April 2023
Here are the top 100 goaltenders to own in your points-only dynasty leagues - April edition! As always, since goaltenders are so finicky (top fantasy owns one day, six months later nobody touches them with a 10-foot pole, but six months after that they are top owns again), go by the tiering system. Two goalies [...]
Frozen Tools Forensics: Peak Fantasy Playoff Performers
It has been a pretty wild start to playoff matchups. Those story lines are being covered pretty extensively elsewhere and we will be reviewing from a fantasy perspective at a later time so expect some playoff content once some of the rounds have wrapped. For now, we are going to take a look back over [...]
Capped: Values For Next Season On Jordan Eberle And K’Andre Miller
The NHL playoffs are underway and that means that sixteen teams’ fanbases are absolutely stressing out currently which is totally valid; everyone wants to see their favorite sports team manage to win the sixteen games that are required to win the Stanley Cup. Obviously, some teams are in a better position to win in the [...]
