Lucas Main breaks down the latest fantasy information from the Western Conference – the streaks, the slumps, the line combinations and much more.
For the next couple of weeks I thought I’d go back and revisit a few of my pre-season columns to see where I stood, while comparing them to now.
With the end of the regular season in sight, it's time to take a look back at how your Western Conference fantasy players have fared this season and hand out some April flowers.
If you are in a tight league where every little stat matters, making the smart adds/drops could determine whether you are the league champion or just another one of the nine, 11 or 13 disappointed losers. At this point of the season it’s not about what your players have done for you all season long, it’s all about what your player will do for you in the next four weeks that will determine your fantasy fate.
We’re rounding the final corner of the fantasy season and depending on your league settings you could be heading down a few different paths. Let’s look at those who are gunning for a money spot in Roto leagues, or those entering the playoffs in H2H leagues. If you are in a tight league where every little stat matters, making the smart adds/drops could determine whether you are the league champion or just another one of the nine, 11 or 13 disappointed losers. At this point of the season it’s not about what your players have done for you all season long, it’s all about what your player will do for you in the next four weeks that will determine your fantasy fate.

In order to be successful in fantasy hockey one key strategy that will help tremendously is being able to identify past historical trends and utilize them to your advantage. Much like the column a month ago, this week we’ll showcase a few of the players out West that have had either positive or negative career trend during the month of March. Obviously these players aren’t going to be bargain bin material, so hopefully you can hone your sharp bartering skills to net you a few of these players for the stretch run of the fantasy season.
Following the crazy trade frenzy of the last couple of days, I’ll go through the Western Conference teams and analyse some of the fallout that has occurred because of the trades.

Following along the lines of my Eastern counterpart, this week we’ll look ahead to the final 30 games (or so) and see what might be in store for the balance of the season.

I'll try my very best to avoid being Captain Obvious.
