Thomas Greiss was placed on IR yesterday with a lower-body injury. It was retroactive to the 16th so we could see him back sooner than later. Christopher Gibson was recalled, but it’s doubtful he sees much action. Gibson’s now 25 and his AHL numbers leave something to be desired. Any goalie can go on [...]
Fantasy Impact: The Philadelphia Flyers acquire goaltender Petr Mrazek from the Detroit Red Wings in exchange for a conditional fourth-round pick in 2018 and a conditional third-round pick in 2019. The Flyers get: A proven professional goaltender that they desperately need with Brian Elliott out until April and Michal Neuvirth now day-to-day. [...]
With one week until the NHL trade deadline, it’s important to remember that some of the best moves are the smallest ones. Last year, we saw Sven Andrighetto have surprisingly great success once he was dealt to Colorado, while Patrick Eaves continued with his career year in Anaheim by notching 11 goals in 20 games. [...]
In the midst of a season-high four game win streak, and an 8-5-5 record since the calendar hit 2018, Arizona is salvaging some late success from another year gone wrong. For a team starting the campaign with 11 straight losses and not earning their fourth win until their 23rd contest it’s hopefully a harbinger [...]

There are three afternoon games that feature a lot of fantasy-relevant players so you don’t want to fall behind in your head-to-head leagues. * A full day of hockey was kicked off with a wild game between the Flyers and Rangers. There were three fights [...]
Has Phil Kessel been an elite player this season, even in leagues that count hits? […]
Kopitar’s Consistency, Hamilton’s Hattie, plus more… […]
It’s that time of the month when I examine some of the biggest risers on Dobber’s top-200 prospect rankings. While other players, such as Ryan Donato and Boris Katchouk, have had larger jumps I covered those players fairly recently here and here so I didn’t feel it necessary to go over them again. Andreas [...]
Another 5-1 Saturday and I'm edging ever closer to the coveted 66% target I set out for every year, hopefully with games becoming more predictable I'll get there in the new few weeks. I've been a bit surprised this week with some of the money lines I saw and took full advantage of a few [...]
