This week, most teams will pass the 20% mark of games played for the 2022–23 season. It’s no longer a small sample, and there are already several teams above or below the expectations that we all saw back in early October. Raise your hands if you saw Boston, New Jersey, Winnipeg, and Vegas leading their [...]
One month of NHL action has come and gone, and we now have a small sample size on the season. That has resulted in many changes to the rankings, particularly closer to the bottom of the rankings. Some unexpected names have also broken into the top 100, and of course injuries have played a role [...]
We had the 2022 Hockey Hall of Fame induction ceremony on Monday. It is highlighted by a trio of high-profile Canucks players with Daniel and Henrik Sedin plus Roberto Luongo. There was also Daniel Alfresson, Riikka Sallinen, and Herb Carnegie. There has been some debate as to the merits of some of these players i.e. [...]
This week we are going to look at players from each team in the West and see who are the leaders in points per 60 minutes. There are a few surprising players here who could be available in some pools. I’ve tried to include some numbers from the 2021-22 season as well for comparative purposes. [...]
You may not be able to win a fantasy hockey championship in November, but you can lay the groundwork for March and April by snagging players now that help you then. Ever seen a trade announcement where you can't believe the return and thought you could have beaten that offer? Smart general managers are already [...]
I hope you have Matej Blumel on your radar. The 22-year-old has made a strong transition to North American hockey when he followed up a good training camp with 11 points in his first nine AHL games. It was enough to earn an early recall to the big club and so far he’s fitting in [...]
Every Sunday, we share 21 Fantasy Rambles from our writers at DobberHockey. These thoughts are curated from the past week's ‘Daily Ramblings’. Writers/Editors: Ian Gooding, Michael Clifford, Alexander MacLean and Dobber — 1. It's fun to see the great players add new elements to their games, and continue to evolve in their dominance. Sidney Crosby [...]
We’ve arrived at the end of another week, and you know what that means! It’s time to comb through the waiver-wire and see what stands out. By this point of the season, a lot of the league's “best-kept secrets” have been scooped up by this point, but there’s still some value to be had. This [...]
Alex DeBrincat led the Senators with a pair of power-play goals in their 4-1 matinee win in Philadelphia. The goals were the Cat’s first in seven games. I saw someone on Twitter making a case that DeBrincat has struggled early in his first season with the Senators. Maybe in the goal-scoring department, but he’s now [...]
Welcome back to The Journey, where we follow hockey prospects and their paths to the NHL, providing fantasy predictions and analysis along the way. This week, we will look at several prospects who have excellent track records dating back to junior but seem unlikely to become meaningful fantasy contributors for the next couple years. Although [...]
