Still mostly quiet on the trade front, as we enter into the final quarter of the fantasy season. Following along the same lines as the last three weeks, we’ll conclude the series this week by analyzing the potential trade candidates of the Sharks, Blues and Canucks.

Andrei Markov was in the lineup for Russia. Andrei Kostitsyn will not play for Belarus today, as expected.   I picked up both Hnat Dominechelli (for old time's sake) and Mark Streit in the Olympics pool and they each drew an assist on the lone Swiss goal last night. Just found that cool   The [...]

Whew.  With the NHL now on its Olympic break, you can afford to take a fantasy hockey breather over the next couple of weeks.  No one should be denied the Olympic opportunity of sitting on the couch getting fat while watching athletic perfection play out on your big-screen, but don't forget about your fantasy squad altogether.

For those of you not in Vancouver - check out what you are missing! Thanks to Dobber reader Duane S. for the link! It is an awesome aerial panorama photograph that is updated and you can move around in it.   Some more funny names from the pool - The Dangelina Jolies, and Timonen and [...]

Oh boy are we ever in for a treat, best on best hockey is, well, the best, and doesn’t happen as often as we all would like. The downside to all the great hockey we are seeing is no NHL hockey. And while NHL teams have to abide by a trade freeze during the Olympic Games, you certainly don’t have to.

 

All NHL teams have between 19 and 22 games remaining in the regular season. But not all games are created equal. For the shrewd fantasy owner, there is opportunity here.

I expect that Mats Zuccarello Aasen (Norway) will get a shot with an NHL team every soon. He is small (very small), and was overlooked during his draft eligibile years because of this. The fact that he played hockey in Norway obviously didn't help either. However, he is fast and incredibly skilled, and plays an [...]

I'll be at the Slovakia/Latvia game tonight. Scouting fantasy hockey sleepers, of course.   Jaromir Jagr wants to return to the NHL. He will be back, I have no doubt in my mind. The rumor last season was Edmonton being the destination of choice, but I can't see that still being the case. The power [...]

A good way to avoid wasting your time as a prospector – and your draft picks as a fantasy hockey GM – is to learn to spot fool’s gold.


For the past couple of months, I’ve been touting players that I thought might be worth having a look at. This week, I’m going to try to get you to steer clear of a player.
