As we close out November, I’ll start with a review of the Vancouver Canucks’ resurgence. After an 0-5-2 start that had fans - and his boss Jim Rutherford - calling for Bruce Boudreau to win OR ELSE, the team is quietly 9-5-1, actually one of the best records in the west over that span.   So, [...]

Back in the first week of September, I put out some outrageous too-early predictions for the NHL season, team results. I had five new teams making the top-16, and thus into the playoffs come April, these being (alphabetically) Detroit, New York Islanders, Vancouver, Vegas, and Winnipeg.  Ok it’s now the eve of USA Thanksgiving, and [...]

DFS Thursday: Suzuki, Stone, the Canadiens, and the Golden Knights

On Tuesday, I discussed a team that’s underperforming badly (Vancouver), and yes they came to play for their coach, taking away a 5-4 win.   Today I’ll cover the opposite end, and discuss the New Jersey Devils. First stat - they’ve won their last 10 games and sit atop the Metropolitan Division. But why? The goaltending [...]

This week, most teams will pass the 20% mark of games played for the 2022–23 season. It’s no longer a small sample, and there are already several teams above or below the expectations that we all saw back in early October. Raise your hands if you saw Boston, New Jersey, Winnipeg, and Vegas leading their [...]

DFS Thursday: Blues, Islanders, and Kings Lead The Way

I’m traveling, so not as easy to get in my ALWAYS accurate reading first, so I’m going off the routine, and picking teams to focus upon, with stackable options. This puts winning on you, the reader, and keeps you from throwing more eggs my way. WARM:  St. Louis at home against San Jose. A few [...]

DFS Tuesday: St. Louis and Ottawa Looking For Improvements

By |2022-11-08T13:41:42-05:00November 8th, 2022|Daily Fantasy (DFS) Advice, Daily Fantasy Hockey Tips (DFS)|

Teams that really, really need a win do often play with that added degree of desire and desperation, but alas, Pittsburgh, Columbus, and San Jose are off on Tuesday. Thus, I’ll focus on the St. Louis Blues, who are absolutely a better hockey team than they’ve shown, and those elusive wins will have to start [...]
