Dobber’s Offseason Fantasy Grades – Los Angeles Kings
For the last 14 years (12 with The Hockey News) Dobber has reviewed each team from a fantasy-hockey standpoint and graded them. This year, due to Dobber’s battle with cancer, he recruited Cam Robinson (of Frozen Pool Forensics fame) to pinch hit. The 15th annual review will appear here on DobberHockey throughout the summer.

The Journey: Looking Back at the 2016 NHL Draft – Part Three
In this week’s Journey, we complete a three-part series looking back on the 2016 NHL Entry Draft.

Ramblings: Theodore and Schmidt; Ovechkin, Carlson, and Oshie – August 12
Looking back to the expansion draft, one of the more discussed situations was what would happen with the Washington Capitals.

Ramblings: News from Russia, Ducks Blue Line, Coyotes Youngsters and more (Aug. 11)
After being called out for propping up the Cats in Tuesday's Ramblings, it was fitting that Florida was included in Sean McIndoe's list of five teams that could be this year's Avalanche. His assessment of the Panthers was similar to mine, and I won't be wishy-washy about Jaromir Jagr, Florida is better off without [...]
Capped: Team By Team Buy and Sell – Part One
Two years ago, Chris Pudsey took a walk through each NHL team, plucking one player that you should be trying to get onto your fantasy team, and one player you should be trying to get off of your fantasy team. For the doldrums of August, I thought this was a great topic to revive. We [...]
Ramblings: Martin Jones, Dylan Larkin, Alex Steen, and Fantasy Busts – August 10
At the risk of sounding like a freshman humanities student that just finished their first philosophy course, much of life is about continuing education and learning from mistakes. It is simplistic, and oft-repeated, but nonetheless true. This holds water for fantasy sports, and in our case, fantasy hockey. Maybe your first three picks for 2016-17 [...]
