The Salary Cap League Rankings are here! All of the top 200 skaters. **** With the draft wrapped-up and free agency past the frenzy portion, there’s lots of dust to settle out. We have new faces, old faces in new places, and all sorts of new contracts to face. Got it? Only a couple of [...]
While many fantasy keeper leagues and dynasties prefer to wait until closer to the start of the NHL season before conducting their prospect drafts, some choose to hold theirs early in the summer. It's not uncommon for some leagues to hold their fantasy draft before the NHL draft, which adds an extra layer of difficulty [...]
It seemed like just a couple of weeks ago when the Fantasy Prospects Report was last updated. Oh wait! It was! But now it’s time to turn our focus to the upcoming Fantasy Hockey Guide, which is released on August 5th. I note in the shop that this will be a “partial release” but that [...]
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, Michael Amato and Dobber — For anyone who wants to read on the individual impacts from the recent trades and free agent signings, we covered a [...]
It remains to be seen where Matthew Tkachuk slots in to the Florida Panthers lineup, but I think it’s safe to say his offensive numbers are going to take somewhat of a hit. He scored 100 of his 104 points while playing Johnny Gaudreau last season and maybe the only Panthers player he could’ve played [...]
Welcome back to The Journey, where we follow hockey prospects and their paths to the NHL, providing fantasy predictions and analysis along the way. After a busy start to this summer’s free agency, the moves have begun to slow down. After all of the transactions made, I thought it would be interesting to look at [...]
The Calgary Flames traded Matthew Tkachuk to the Florida Panthers in exchange for the NHL’s second leading scorer (tied) Jonathan Huberdeau, plus defenseman Mackenzie Weegar, prospect forward Cole Schwindt, and a first-round draft pick. The Flames get: the scoring to replace the recent loss of Johnny Gaudreau. And funny enough, they replace him with the [...]
Things are looking up for Elias Lindholm. Despite losing 2/3s of arguably the best line in hockey last year, getting Jonathan Huberdeau and his 85 assists from a season ago as a consolation prize isn’t too bad. A top unit of Huberdeau/Lindholm/Tyler Toffoli should still be very fruitful for the Calgary Flames and there’s a [...]
There was news on Friday afternoon that Columbus had extended Patrik Laine for four years with an average annual value of $8.7M. That put the Blue Jackets in excess of $6M over the cap and while being over the cap is fine in the offseason, it’s often better to take care of the trades necessary [...]
We had a fun few days of free agency, and while there are certainly still some names out there, not much has happened recently. There has been a lot of analysis here at Dobber Hockey, and all of the summary takes can be found here. As so much of this ground has been covered already, [...]
