Happy DFS Tuesday to everyone out there who’ll be on the front lines with me tonight! This is very interesting slate that we have coming up tonight, and I say that because most of these matchups are closer than they appear as far as predicting the outcomes of these games. Still, I have a couple [...]
Welcome back to Puck Picks! Each Thursday, I’ll be breaking down some of my favorite NHL bets. The goal isn’t just to share picks, but to explain the why behind them, helping you recognize similar value spots on your own throughout the season. I’ll be tracking every pick transparently in this column, logging units won [...]
With the start of the season, we have seen a lot of top draft picks get into games and given some opportunities to succeed before management makes decisions on the player’s rest of season development. Here are some names that have been active from the 2025 draft class. Pittsburgh Penguins - Ben Kindel (11th overall) [...]

Alright, so this one’s another dive into a new dataset I’ve been messing around with. I pulled game-by-game data from MoneyPuck going back to the 2008–09 NHL season, cleaned it up as best I could, and threw it into Tableau to see what kind of visualizations I could build. This is very much a work [...]
The Pittsburgh Penguins announced that defenceman Kris Letang will undergo surgery to fix a hole in his heart which will carry a recovery timeline of at least a month. Given his history with this issue, it is always a bit nerve-wracking to see he’s still dealing with it, but that he’s getting it fixed is [...]
Welcome back in! Welp. I don’t know about you guys, but my fantasy season came to an end last week. The guys took it pretty hard, but I didn’t address the group in the room after Sunday’s slate came to an end.

There was a slew of important injury updates yesterday that will have huge impacts over the final week of the fantasy hockey regular season so let’s get right to them.
