We’re going back to the well for this rendition of the Ramblings. A few months ago, mere moments before the NHL season kicked off, I shared my notes from a recent appearance on The Hockey PDOCast with Dimitri Filipovich. Well, Dim and I decided to evaluate our early predictions while discussing all the early surprises, [...]
In this week’s Eastern Edge, we continue analyzing the big storylines from around the Eastern Conference. We began our journey with observations from Boston to New Jersey in last week’s article. I know I promised that we’d close out the series this week with thoughts on teams from New York to Washington, but I [...]
Good day to all here in fantasy hockey land. This week I have compiled a list of the top lines for each team over the last ten games at even strength. I am going to look at a couple of hot lines in the Western Conference and a couple of cold players in the [...]
Here are the Top 100 defensemen to own in your points-only keeper leagues - December edition! These were pulled directly from my Top 300 skaters ranking (posted here).

Do we have a new favourite Columbus winger to own? Are a couple flailing Sharks worth giving another shot? Has the time come [...]
Last week, using Dobber’s hot/cold list, we looked at 10 players who were running cold. This week, we’re flipping the script and looking at some of the hottest players. However, we’re looking at some of the players whose streaks may not be getting the attention they deserve. After all, you don’t need the list [...]
Here are the Top 300 skaters to own in your points-only keeper leagues - December 2019. As per usual in the December rankings, lots of movement and jockeying for possession as we try to sort through the flashes in the pan to find the actual trends. Where were we wrong in the summer? [...]
Ramblings: Digging deep on Subban and Fiala, thoughts on Puljujarvi, Rust, Dumba, Krejci and more (Dec 02) *** I was asked on Twitter about PK Subban. Is it over? Is he done? At 30 years of age and coming off a season that saw him tally just 31 points, he’s struggling even worse. Just [...]
