The 18th annual Fantasy Guide was last updated on Friday, just with some player tryout notes. News will pick up very soon, and I also have a few columns to get in. But the big news was the release of my Goalie Post app. Oh yes, it’s here. And it’s a beauty. Besides a facelift [...]
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. I'm practicing my skills by participating in mock drafts and writing about them afterward. Hopefully it helps you in some way with [...]
For the last 20 years (12 with The Hockey News) Dobber and the team have reviewed each team from a fantasy-hockey standpoint and graded them. The 21st annual review will appear here on DobberHockey throughout the summer. This is not a review of the likely performance on the ice or in the standings, but in [...]
There are some new stats for goalies on Frozen Tools: Quality Weeks, Really Bad Weeks, and Star Weeks.

Finding content to write about during the dead of summer is a real challenge, so I might as well try to kill two birds with one stone. That’s why I’m practicing my skills by participating in mock drafts and writing about them afterward. Hopefully it helps you in some way with your draft while covering [...]

This week we are continuing a bit of a theme of the last few weeks by looking at defensemen. The last two weeks we were focused on power-play deployment as that certainly correlates with point production, but for this week the focus is on peripheral categories. For the purposes of this article, we are mainly [...]
Yesterday, I started a series of Ramblings reviewing some players I am targeting as good values in early (pre-camp) fantasy hockey drafts.
