Today on Frozen Tool Forensics we are going to dig into shooting percentage. The summer is a time full of articles exploring players who “should be better next season” or are “likely to fall off.” Sometimes this is pure conjecture, but often it is related to shooting percentage.

Hi everyone. Ian here. Just in time for single-season fantasy drafts, I have some important changes to announce for the Top 100 Roto Rankings. First, I’d like to introduce Bangers Fantasy Hockey. If you’re on Twitter, you might be familiar with their work on player cards such as the one below. You can follow them [...]
Look for the Roto Rankings to be released today with some major changes. I will have full details then. As a spoiler, I’m going to be receiving some assistance and insight that I think will make the rankings even better. Another spoiler: There will be changes to some of the categories used to rank players. [...]

The focus was on groups of players, such as those leading our projections, blue liners with serious competition for top offensive time, younger stars, and others. Go read that for a review of a dozen-or-so blue liners that are comparable in some way. [...]
Welcome back to the only poll I’ve run every single year since I transitioned to the Roos Lets Loose column format. It’s an important poll, because the goalie position is so key and there are always a number of teams with projected goalie shares or likely 1A/1B situations. The poll is based entirely on the [...]
We’ve had enough discussion about Yahoo and their positions over the last few weeks, and it looks to have settled into their usual spot before the majority of drafts, so we’ll leave it there for now. One thing I wanted to touch on, is that throughout the season I would like to try and put [...]
In this week’s Eastern Edge, we’ll discuss why Jake Guentzel and Joonas Korpisalo are players you want on your fantasy team this year.
