You couldn’t write this, and be believed! With three games remaining - under a week now - that last Eastern Wild Card has four teams scrambling, and all within one point in the standings. Do the Penguins hold a theoretical advantage, with the single point lead? They play three playoff teams (unless the Islanders implode), [...]
An update for those who have purchased the playoff draft list: Currently it is still in progress, but it should be ready early next week. I know Dobber mentioned that he would have it ready for early April, but unfortunately his current health situation doesn’t allow him to work on it this season as he [...]
With about a week’s worth of regular season action left I wanted to take a moment for what has become an annual tradition over here in Frozen Tool Forensics. We are using our regular season stats to look forward to playoff leagues and see if we can predict some unlikely playoff heroes. This all started [...]
Anaheim announced that forward Jakob Silfverberg is going to retire at the end of the season. The 33-year-old winger has over 800 regular season games to his name where he’s amassed 168 goals and 205 assists, and 69 playoff games with 18 goals and 26 assists in that time.

Hello and welcome back in to all my Cap-Friendlies out there. Fantasy playoffs are now all but over, but the best time of the year, in my opinion, is finally upon us and this goes beyond the ice as well; the Masters (hello friends), baseball is back with us, and of course round one of [...]

Whether it’s winning the Cup with Samuel Girard injured or Gabriel Landeskog’s two-year effort to back to game action, it’s not often we’ve seen Colorado with a full roster as they chase a Stanley Cup. That [...]

Welcome back to Forum Buzz, where I peruse the DobberHockey Forums and weigh in on active, heavily debated, or otherwise relevant recent threads, reminding folks just how great a resource the Forums are. Nearly anything might be covered here, other than trades and signings, which usually get their own separate write-ups on the main site and are also normally [...]
Jack Hughes missed last night’s game, and it’s now confirmed that he’s done for the season. He finishes the campaign with 74 points in 62 games, which is just shy of a 100-point-pace. That’s his third season in a row pacing between 94 and 104 points, which would seem to be his production wheelhouse. However, [...]
