Every year we have a couple of rookies who perform alright, some rookies end up getting 35-40 points in a year, other times they get around 50 points. But this year… This year we have what looks to be one of the strongest rookie classes in recent history, this year is very different in comparison [...]
We had just two games in the NHL on Wednesday night so it’s a good time to go through some trade targets for the upcoming trade deadline. Rather than just list guys that may be on the move, though, it’s worth looking at what gets left behind if those players get moved. It is nice [...]
Here’s the latest injury news from across the NHL! If you’re looking for information about a specific player and don’t see their name in this article, there probably haven’t been any significant updates about their progress since our last article. If you ever need injury updates for a specific player, shoot me a message on Twitter @BrennanDeSouza. Ryan Getzlaf – [...]
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 [...]
It feels to me like Jack Eichel made his Golden Knights debut just three days ago, but maybe that’s because I unfortunately don’t own him in any of my leagues. The 25-year-old is up to seven points in 10 games thus far, and that’s just while he gets his legs back under him. If you’re [...]
In this week’s Eastern Edge, we’ll look at skaters who have bounced back from an underwhelming first half and put together a strong second half. For the purposes of this article, I took each player’s total appearances so far and split those appearances in half. So, if someone played 56 games up until this point, [...]
Welcome back to another edition of Lining Up. This week will examine a few continuing hot streaks as well as new or returning faces to respective teams. With fantasy playoffs around the corner, it is worth examining the schedule closely and start thinking about who you want on your roster down the stretch. Let’s dive [...]
The New York Islanders were in action on Monday night, hosting Colorado. The team has gone through some brutal stretches this year, starting with that circus road trip to open the season. They didn’t play a home game until November 20th, and then went through an extensive COVID outbreak. Since Christmas, the team has gone [...]
I have tried to check in on goalie usage a few times this season as things change more often than they have in the past. Most starting goalies don’t play more than 60 games anymore and the typical sweet spot for playoff-bound teams is 50-55 games for the starter to make sure he is fresh [...]
While many of you are still gunning for a championship, there are a few who have already waved the white flag on any hopes for a title this year. However, that doesn't mean your season is finished. After all, you have to work on rebuilding your squad for next year. Depending on the makeup of [...]
