In this column we have used a lot of the Frozen Tool reports to gather league wide data and spot players who are excelling in various categories. This week I would like to go back to basics, to one area we have not yet addressed, the Player Profile. It houses a wealth of information about [...]
With Phase Two underway, it’s tough not to be hopeful that we really will see hockey again at some point this summer. That means we get play-in games, and then the playoffs. As a result, there aren’t really too many salary cap points to discuss around the remaining portions of the 2019-2020 season. However, that [...]
Welcome back to Forum Buzz, where I peruse the DobberHockey Forums and weigh in on very active, heavily debated, or otherwise relevant recent threads, reminding everyone how great of a resource the Forums are, especially now that the season is paused. Nearly anything might be covered here, other than trades and signings, which usually get separate write-ups [...]
Before we get into this week’s Eastern Edge, I think it’s important to highlight the movement towards equality that’s echoing through our world right now.

Welcome back, prospect enthusiasts. Before I go any further I just wanted to remind that you that the ever so popular Fantasy Prospect Report will be going on sale next week on June 12. Of course, the actual draft date remains unconfirmed. However, an updated version will be made available once the final draft order [...]
So the NHL has a plan. A plan to play. And a plan for the playoffs. Last week we took a look at how players have historically played well in the playoffs (looking at you Logan Couture). This week I wanted to return to an idea I had started with the Wild West column. The [...]
