Welcome back to Goldipucks and the Three Skaters, a play on words of the Goldilocks and the Three Bears story. Instead of there being three bowls of porridge though, I cover three skaters and declare one too hot (i.e., doing unsustainably better than he should), another too cold (i.e., doing unsustainably worse), and a third [...]
Patrik Laine scored his first hat trick in 23 months against the Sabres last night as part of a six-goal onslaught but the Habs. That ups him to six goals in seven games. He won't keep that pace up as his shooting percentage normalizes, but the assists will click up a bit too to balance. [...]
Good day, DFS’ers! How’d everyone’s weekend plays go? I missed out on cash by a mile on Saturday, but that said, I did make my lineup in I’d say a minute in a half. These things happen. This is an interesting slate tonight because we don’t have Edmonton, Colorado, Toronto, or Minnesota, on this slate [...]

Edmonton winger Viktor Arvidsson was at the team’s morning skate before the game Monday night at home against Florida. Arvidsson has been out over a month with an undisclosed injury, though he seems to be on the mend. Edmonton has three games later this week, including a back-to-back on Saturday and Sunday. We will see [...]
I’m going to look at players from each team in the Western Conference and see what skaters have dropped or gone up a tier or two this season (2024-25) compared to last season (2023-24). These are tiers I’ve just made up for this article so please don’t confuse this with other Tiers you have seen [...]
As we hit the holidays of the 2024-2025 NHL season, it’s always fun to look for players who could potentially hit the 70-point mark for the first time. This list focuses on players currently hovering around or below a 70-point pace. These players may be near the milestone, but remember, it’s no guarantee. Some are [...]
Mathew Barzal returned to the lineup after missing six weeks with an upper-body injury. There was certainly rust to shake off as some of his passes lacked the quality we’ve come to expect from him. Through roughly 21 minutes of action, Barzal posted two shots, two hits, four faceoff wins and was a minus-2. He [...]
