Welcome back to Puck Picks! Each Thursday, I break down some of my favorite NHL bets, explain the reasoning behind them, and track performance transparently. The goal of this column isn’t just to share picks, but to help you recognize why certain spots have value so you can identify them throughout the season. I’ll be [...]
Welcome back in, everyone! I don’t know if you’re in the same boat, but my fantasy season in my main league came to a crashing halt last week. And honestly, I’d always rather lose by a lot than by a little, and let me tell the readers:this one wasn’t close. Being in Nashville over the [...]
Derrick hosts a speedy check-in on a busy fantasy playoff night with 30 NHL teams in action.
Adam Sýkora made his NHL debut for the New York Rangers on Wednesday night. The second-round pick from 2022 has spent the last three years in the AHL and had amassed 58 points in 131 games. He is not typically known for his offence, but with the team’s lacklustre forward depth, he has a chance [...]
After an incredibly busy night last night, I’m sure you’re tired of hearing about (and dealing with) how this week’s NHL schedule is so unbalanced. Next week it gets a bit better, and if you’re in a position to get a jump on schedule management there, then target the five-game week from the Penguins. Now, [...]

Let’s get to it! For those of you invested in Pittsburgh Penguins [...]
Happy Tuesday y’all! If you’re still in the playoffs, your teams probably did squat after the snooze fest that was the Ottawa Senators and New York Rangers last night. Unless you are in deep leagues, you probably don’t own many players who hit the scoresheet (I picked up Nick Cousins instead of Warren Foegele, booo), [...]
The Utah Mammoth announced the signing of Caleb Desnoyers to his three-year entry-level deal. The fourth overall pick from 2025 had 78 points in 45 games with the Moncton Wildcats in the QMJHL this year. It will be interesting to see how the Mammoth decide to use him for the balance of the campaign considering [...]
Happy Monday y’all! I hope you advanced in your playoffs or if your postseason starts this week, good luck to all! I have two leagues that start this week so please keep me in your thoughts as well. I know a lot of us want the NHL to switch up the playoff format to see [...]
This week we will be looking at the future of the NHL. With the season winding down, many top prospects are looking to sign with their NHL clubs. These young stars could have an immediate impact for fantasy managers and their pro teams. While some of these players haven’t signed or made their debuts yet, [...]
