Welcome back to another edition of Lining Up. This week we will focus on reviewing the first week of hockey for any noteworthy line combinations as well as highlight a few players who have good deployment and favourable schedules for the remainder of the coming week. Let’s dive in. Detroit Lucas Raymond joined the top [...]
The biggest hope and goal for Montreal this 2023-24 regular season was to see progress from its bevy of young players. To do that, the young players would need to stay healthy as the team was decimated by injuries last year. It took a grand total of two games for those hopes to be dashed [...]
It is very early in the 2023-24 season, but we can see which players from each team have been given opportunities on the first or second unit of the power play. Some teams split 50/50, others 60/40 and some 80/20 like the Edmonton Oilers. Most NHL teams tend to operate with 4F/1D on the power [...]
The NHL season is less than a week old, but that won't stop fantasy general managers from jumping to conclusions, ready to drop studs off to a slow start for hot third- and fourth-line players. If you're one of these GMs, a bit of advice: If you're going to make a knee-jerk reaction, you can [...]

Statistically, there isn't much to discuss yet. He is taking [...]
Hello and welcome back to Geek of the Week! In this week’s article, I am going to bring up three players that will be undervalued right now, based on their early season “bad luck”. These are players who normally put up many shots on goal, but have not been able to so far. I will [...]
With very few games played so far, the October rankings simply include some minor tweaking to factor in early-season injuries. As of September, the updated stat categories for the Roto Rankings are as follows: Goals, Assists, Special Teams Points, Shots on Goal, Penalty Minutes, Hits, and Blocked Shots. Bangers also has full projections available, which [...]
First Saturday of the season! Lots of hockey to break down. No Taylor Swift coverage, I promise. Because of Connor Bedard, the Blackhawks have become must-watch TV whenever they are broadcasted nationally. Nothing against the Wild/Leafs or Flames/Penguins, which are both decent matchups in and of themselves. Yet here I am viewing two of the [...]
