Hockey Rambling

  Dobber: Fantasy Guide is now updated as of this evening, including the Grabner waiver fallout.   My fantasy hockey mailbag is open once again! Ask your questions all day today.   The Canucks have released Brendan Morrison from his tryout agreement. They offered him a contract but rumor has it he wanted more money. [...]

  Washington has named Neuvirth as starting goalie for their opening night contest. I'm not surprised. He's going to be a better goalie than Varlamov both this season and long-term. Unflappable between the pipes.   Vancouver has waived Darcy Hordichuk and Shane O'Brien.   The Fantasy Guide is updated up until last night, and the [...]

  Dobber: Fantasy Guide is now updated as of tonight. Draft List will be late tonight, or else tomorrow morning.   Kyle Beach and Igor Makarov were among today's Chicago cuts.   Happy October everybody!   With Okposo out, the guy in NYI I am keeping an eye on is Blake Comeau. He’s big and [...]

  Angus here. If you want my take on a player/team/trade/situation or anything else fantasy-related, post it below in the comments! I'll do my best to get to each one for tomorrow's ramblings.   Dobber: The Wings have cut Tomas Tatar. George Malik claims that he bulked up his upper body too much, similar to [...]

Fantasy Guide - updated through Monday night - can be found here. I hope to have the next update posted by this evening.   The Sharks have cut Cam McIntyre. They are quite high on him, but he has been injured throughout camp.   Zach Boychuk has been cut by the Hurricanes. As I noted [...]

  Both the Fantasy Guide and Draft List were updated as of last night.   Chris Botta reports that Kyle Okposo will require shoulder surgery and is out for two months - or about 30 games. This could have been a big year for him. The door opens wide for Niederreiter, Comeau and Parenteau - [...]

  Fantasy Guide and Preseason Draft List are now both updated through to today. I also changed the bottom of the draft list to get some PIM guys on there rather than 18-point players. Thought that would be more useful.   Francois Bouchard was among Washington's cuts this afternoon.   Riley Holzapfel and Spencer Machacek [...]

  Hodgson will actually be lining up at right wing with Kesler and Raymond, according to a recent tweet from Dan Murphy.   Patrick O'Sullivan has all but sewn up a top six spot in Carolina. Riley Nash has been sent down.   The Leafs have cut 17 players today, including Marcel Mueller, Jerry D'Amigo, [...]

  According to Chris Botta, Mark Streit left the arena with his left arm in a sling today. Not good news for anyone who owns any Islander players.   Cody Hodgson will play in Edmonton tomorrow. He'll center Sergei Shirokov and Billy Sweatt.   Jeff Tambellini is playing with the Sedin twins on Vancouver's top [...]

  Column on the way for tonight - Five Teams to Invest in For the Future. St. Louis is in the mix, as are the Oilers. Can you guess the other three? Factors used for evaluation - star quality, prospect quality, coaching philosophy, scoring depth quality, and prospect readiness.   Goldie says: Why Deeper is [...]
