The Wild West

I thought we could see if there are any players at the halfway point from the Western Conference who are in the running for some of the major league awards at the end of the year. We will look at the Calder, Norris, Art Ross, Rocket Richard, Vezina and the Hart Memorial trophies and make [...]

This week we are going to look at some players in the West who might have been drafted with aspirations of being 30-story towers with two-story penthouses but might only be two-story walk ups. I’m going to focus on players aged from 23 to 25 who were 1st or early 2nd round draft picks, as [...]

Happy Holidays and an early Happy New Year! I thought it would be interesting to see what player(s) (prospects) each team in the Western Conference had in this year's WJC. Hopefully, this might help you get an update on some of your prospects or give you a heads up on some available ones in your [...]

Hi everyone! I’m Eli Feldman, the sheriff in town for this week’s edition of the Wild West.

Today, I’m going to list the MVP(s) from each Western Team and make mention of any other players who were in the running after 20 or so games. My choices are a little slanted towards multi-category fantasy pools where more than points matter. Anaheim Ducks I’m going to split this between Lukas Dostal and John [...]

I thought we could check in on some of the young prospects who are in the AHL and see how they are doing and what progression/regression that they might be showing. I’m not going to include players who are currently in the NHL or players over the age of 25. Check out Part One here! [...]

I had included 23 sleeper picks in the 2024-2025 Dobber Fantasy Guide and was curious to see how each of them was doing to this point in the regular season. It’s still early to have a conclusion on most, but there are some that are already in the trash. In 2023-2024, I had included 20 [...]
