Dobber’s Ramblings

Ramblings: Coyle Registers Hat Trick, Rinzel Recalled, Panarin Trade Talk (Jan 31)

Friday’s schedule featured only one game while Saturday has 14 games, which is my way of saying tomorrow’s Ramblings will probably be quite a bit longer than today’s. Friday provided a few topics for discussion, though. The only game on the schedule saw the Blue Jackets defeat the Blackhawks in Chicago by a score of [...]

Ramblings: Demko Done; Palat Punted; Steeves Scratched; Dominant Dahlin; The Highest Scoring Ameri-Kane & More (Jan 28)

By |2026-01-27T22:48:40-05:00January 28th, 2026|Hockey Rambling|

Thatcher Demko is going to miss the rest of the 2025-26 season, which should come as a surprise to no one. First-off, his previous three seasons were all injury-plagued, and this season was no different, even up to the latest injury. On top of that, the Canucks are already last in the league, by a decent margin, so [...]

Ramblings: Bouchard Six Points, Marchment and Caufield Hat Tricks, Lyon Shutout (Jan 25)

By |2026-01-25T02:17:10-05:00January 25th, 2026|Hockey Rambling|

The Buffalo Sabres are… maybe a playoff team this season? The Sabres are now 18-3-1 in their past 22 games, which has had positive effects on their players. One area where the Sabres can be trusted more than in previous seasons is in goal. On Saturday, Alex Lyon pitched a 26-save shutout over the Islanders. [...]

Ramblings: High-Scoring Helenius; Hagel’s Heater; Top-Line Dach; Some Recent Fantasy Trades & More (Jan 21)

By |2026-01-20T22:24:13-05:00January 21st, 2026|Hockey Rambling|

After Brandon Hagel started the season with one point in seven games, there were many poolies unwilling to wait on him, and those who dropped/traded him early are now kicking themselves. With two goals and an assist last night, he has 45 points in 36 games since October 25th, adding exactly three shots per game, [...]

Ramblings: Draisaitl Takes Leave, Hat Tricks for Zibanejad and Svechnikov, Andersson Trade Rumors (Jan 18)

By |2026-01-18T11:50:23-05:00January 18th, 2026|Hockey Rambling|

In the Rangers’ 6-3 win over Philadelphia on Saturday, Mika Zibanejad recorded a hat trick, while Artemi Panarin scored two goals and added an assist. Once Panarin leaves the Rangers, Zibanejad’s scoring could take a hit. Zibanejad and Panarin have been paired up quite a bit this season, and Zibanejad’s best linemate both at even [...]

Ramblings: Panarin Watch Begins, Carlsson Out 3-5 Weeks, Ehlers and O’Reilly Hat Tricks (Jan 17)

By |2026-01-17T02:04:52-05:00January 17th, 2026|Hockey Rambling|

On Friday, Rangers GM Chris Drury shared an open message stating that the Rangers will undergo a retool but not a total rebuild. Although certain players were not mentioned in his message, Elliotte Friedman reported that the Rangers will not offer Artemi Panarin a contract extension, instead opting to work with Panarin and his agent [...]

Ramblings: Coyle & Fabbro Impress in Bowness’ Debut; Frank and Josi Pot Two in OT Wins; Cutting Ties too Early With Goalies & More (Jan 14)

By |2026-01-13T23:06:03-05:00January 14th, 2026|Hockey Rambling|

Rick Bowness made his coaching debut with the Columbus Blue Jackets, and between the recent lineup changes and Bowness’ own tinkering, there are a few lineup notes worth fantasy attention. Up front, Charlie Coyle seems to be in line for a bigger role, as he is the main centre on the top power play unit, [...]
