Analytics Advantage: What the New Goaltending Trends Means for Goalie Fantasy Value

By |2026-08-07T06:07:26-04:00August 7th, 2026|Analytics Advantage|

In last week's Analytics Advantage, we covered how the 60-start workhorse goalie doesn't really exist anymore, how much (or how little) a goaltender's workload has changed over the decades, the prevalence of back-to-back starts and performance within those starts, as well as team goaltending philosophies or lack thereof. Go read that to get the foundation [...]

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

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 [...]

Going into the season, one of the biggest stories for the Vancouver Canucks revolved around the health of goaltender Thatcher Demko. He missed a large chunk of the 2024-25 season and looked to be ready to go in 2025-26, but after missing games over the weekend, and leaving Tuesday night’s game after the first period, [...]

Ramblings: Sharks Rebuild Plan; Demko Re-Ups in Vancouver & Some Fantasy Notes from Draft Weekend (July 1)

By |2025-07-01T21:26:47-04:00July 2nd, 2025|Hockey Rambling|

It’s a little strange doing Ramblings for the day after free agency opens, as all of the news is pretty well covered in other fantasy take articles (which you can find here). Cliffy did an awesome job basically covering the whole day himself, so stick taps to him. It's also a little too early to [...]
