DFS Tuesday: Leafs Looming Large; Goals in Buffalo; Tomas Hertl Against Arizona
Last night’s games were a fantasy-hockey dreamland for goalies, with five of the six games played having three or fewer goals scored. If my math skills haven’t failed me, the combined save percentage for the 12 netminders was 0.945. Offensive kudos to Evgeni Malkin and Brayden Schenn, each scoring dramatic [...]
DFS Thursday: Stars and Leafs Looking For Home Cooking; Anthony Cirelli Ready to Break Through
News of the morning has to start with Tage Thompson. His 5-points (4G,1A) in the first period against Columbus was crazy enough, yes? Almost an afterthought that he added a fifth. Thompson has Rocket-ed to third in the NHL goals race. My DFS+ starts with my Thursday feature, “What’s Wrong [...]

Hmm, four goals, six [...]

DFS Thursday: Scorching Flames, Lightning May Strike, and Shining Stars
Starting this month, as part of my NHL DFS column, I’m planning a Thursday feature that’s tentatively titled “What’s wrong with…(playoff teams),” and my first examination will be the Tampa Bay Lightning. No, they haven’t collapsed, they’re not tanking, they have no plans to enter the Connor Bedard sweepstakes - [...]
