In this week’s Eastern Edge, we’ll discuss power-play situations for the Leafs and Hurricanes. These are two of the top teams not only in the East, but the entire league, and their man advantage is a reason why. This piece will talk about the top producers from each team, some guys that are struggling, and [...]
Before getting into the bulk of the article, I just wanted to say thank you to everyone who took the time to congratulate me on the new opportunity that I have been given here at DobberHockey. The kind words and interactions mean the world to me, and it only makes the passion grow that much [...]
Players changing teams is a constant in the league, but the reasons why they change teams can vary. Sometimes it’s just a UFA signing elsewhere, sometimes a player requests a trade, sometimes the team is stripping itself for parts, and sometimes a player just needs a fresh start somewhere else. Regardless, players change teams and [...]
We did a similar column last season, but I thought we would look at each category this time instead of by the team. All shots are not equal and this kind of analysis is focused on the bigger picture and the philosophy that you can’t score if you don’t shoot. All stats are taken from [...]
Covid has clearly done a number on many fantasy leagues. While some fantasy commissioners have decided to pause their leagues during these few weeks, they are in the minority. Most leagues are going ahead as normal, but that means there are plenty of open spaces on rosters as there were about 75 players on the [...]

Maybe it’s just because we’ve come to expect such greatness from the Pittsburgh Penguins superstar that 22 points in his past 15 games doesn’t make a ton of headlines. Crosby is actually on an 89-point pace this season if he played [...]

Writers/Editors: Ian Gooding, Michael Clifford, Alexander MacLean, and Dobber ___ 1. If Bowen Byram had played in more games, perhaps we'd hear his name more in the Calder Trophy conversation. Entering Saturday action, [...]
Hey everyone, hopefully everyone enjoyed their New Year festivities last week and are doing their best to enjoy 2022 so far. From a fantasy hockey perspective though, things have been tumultuous at best. The “set it and forget it” managers will surely be having a bad time this season as we continue to deal with [...]
The Sharks have placed Evander Kane on unconditional waivers to terminate his deal, although Kane is expected to file a grievance through the NHLPA. The last straw for Kane is reportedly for violating the AHL’s COVID protocols, when Kane travelled to Vancouver while he was COVID positive. If his contract is terminated, Kane will lose [...]
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’ll return to Mason Black’s (@NHLRankKing on Twitter) Rank King app to select three under-the-radar prospects with high PNHLe—players who many dynasty owners haven’t heard of who are likely [...]
