Andrew Santillo studies DFS and uses his experience to pass along his most optimal lineup for busy slates of games on Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday.
The first DFS Saturday of the NHL season has arrived! It seems like just yesterday we were building showdown lineups for 3-0 games. Actually, come to think of it that was me last night for the first half of the Bears-Commanders NFL game, oops. Shifting back to hockey, the first Saturday is loaded with all [...]
Like many fantasy managers, I scan the free agent market for each of my leagues. Sometimes I’m looking for replacement players due to injuries (or just questionable drafting), but just as often it’s for a spot starter or a few games’ gamble on a young guy... which brings up my quick comments before a DFS [...]
The NHL is back, and I couldn’t be any more excited. I know we’ve had two games already in Prague, but it feels different when teams get to play in front of their home crowds. There are two games on the schedule tonight with the Tampa Bay Lightning visiting the New York Rangers and the [...]
Oh my. Another NHL season is already underway, and I hope your fantasy drafts went better than my last one. Trying to beat the clock in round 8, I typed in B J O R and accidentally rested my thumb on the edge of my phone… BJORNFOT instead of the Seattle first-liner. Yeah. DFS. I’m [...]
Having not expected to write another column until September, I predicted there wouldn’t BE a Game 6. Nonetheless, here’s the next fearless forecast. But wait!! You can’t just go picking players. You need to decide whether the Colorado Avalanche comes with enough determination and desperation to close the series out, or will the Tampa Bay [...]
With the Lightning facing elimination, there is a real possibility that the 2021-2022 NHL season ends tonight and with that, would spell the end of my DFS articles for the year. Would just like to take a quick moment to thank anyone who takes the time out of their day to read these columns and [...]
Well what a difference a game makes. After the Avalanche rolled the Lightning on Saturday to take a commanding 2-0 series lead, Tampa Bay returned the favor on Monday as they have so often done over the last three postseasons. That leaves some questions as to what to expect for tonight’s Game 4. With any [...]
Wow. Actually "wow" twice! First, the Avalanche absolute domination from Saturday night, making the two-time Stanley Cup champions look old, second-tier, and just outclassed. Sixteen shots, really? Can you say that any one of Tampa’s players had a good game? Nope. And then second to Steve Dotzel, who totally nailed the DFS player predictions for [...]
This Stanley Cup Finals matchup is a highly anticipated one with the great storyline of having the “best” team in the league who’s been trying to get over the hump, facing off against the team who has been at the top of the mountain each of the past two seasons. Even with the hype, Game [...]
Well, here we are with one of the best Stanley Cup Finals matchups in at least a decade. Colorado dominated the West, going 12-2 through the 3 rounds. Tampa had to get through what was arguably the toughest road to the Finals in a long time - - Toronto, Florida, and Igor Shesterkin (oops, I [...]
