I decided to focus this week’s poll on something that’s debated a lot but, as far as I’m aware, has never been voted on here at the site, namely which players are signed to the worst contracts. Of course, when using a word like “worst” it’s not always easy to measure one player versus [...]
The NHL released some ‘at the quarter-mark’ stats via their public relations on Tuesday and it’s just a good as we had hoped it would be. Heading into Tuesday’s contests, this season’s 1956 goals scored represent the second-most markers in the last 23 seasons (2005-06 had 2007 goals). Additionally, the 1462 even-strength tallies are the [...]
In this week’s Eastern Edge, we take a look at who has been struggling and who has been thriving over the past month (October 18th – November 18th). When you’re looking at a player’s performance, his overall numbers for the season are the easiest to access as they’re the first thing you see on [...]

In part one of this mini-series we took a look at players who were scoring above their expected goal rates. These, for the most part, were guys that we expect to be at their highest value right now. They have high shooting percentages and we can assume that their goal-scoring pace will slow down [...]
Unless it’s your netminder getting a shutout, there’s almost nothing worse than seeing a zero in a box score next to the fantasy players you own. It reminds me of the frustration that former Toronto Raptors coach Sam Mitchell showed with some of his players in 2004. “We had guys with stats lines that [...]
On this week's episode of the Keeping Karlsson Fantasy Hockey Podcast, Elan and Brian are mucking about in the data trenches to get you the goods on the (un)sustainability of all the latest stretches, slumps and line changes, including: Should a 19 year old sophomore skyrocket to being a top 25 fantasy draft [...]
Ramblings: Thoughts on Dach, Gustafsson, Glass, and Some Short-Term Roster Adds (Nov 18) *** Chicago rookie Kirby Dach has points in four consecutive games now. The Blackhawks have won four consecutive games. Coincidence? I think not. And what’s more – the team has scored 20 goals in those four games. It’s amazing what an added [...]
