Ramblings: Injured Avalanche; Boychuk update; DeBrincat’s scoring; Dunn’s season – March 5

By |2020-03-04T21:50:45-05:00March 5th, 2020|Hockey Rambling|

Both Andre Burakovsky and Cale Makar were out of the lineup for Colorado on Wednesday night. The team seems to think Makar is closer to returning than Burakovsky is. On the bright side (I think?), Gabriel Landeskog was able to play with a broken nose. I know a lot of teams are going through injuries, [...]

By |2020-03-08T13:50:46-04:00March 4th, 2020|Roos Lets Loose|

The fantasy hockey season might be winding down, but the mailbag is as important as ever, whether to tackle questions about how to approach the last month of the 2019-20 regular season or ones looking ahead to the Stanley Cup playoffs, the summer or even the 2020-21 campaign and beyond.

Ramblings: Searching for Breakouts, Penguins Wake Up, RNH, Fiala, & Podkolzin (March 4)

By |2020-03-04T01:10:40-05:00March 4th, 2020|Hockey Rambling|

The Penguins seemingly forgot how to score last week. It was especially dreadful for the owners of Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin. The two combined for just a single assist in three contests. Fortunately, a date with the gutted Senators was just what the doctor ordered. Three points apiece for Sid, Jason Zucker and Bryan Rust. [...]

By |2020-03-02T22:34:11-05:00March 3rd, 2020|Hockey Rambling|

Well, we’ve reached that time of year: head-to-head playoffs. Some may have already started, some may have yet to start, but March, in the fantasy hockey world is H2H month. Just wanted to see one thing: I thoroughly enjoy H2H leagues. I know sometimes they get downplayed outside of fantasy football due to the randomness, [...]
