Right up front I’ll say if this poll sounds familiar, it’s because I’ve run it in the past at least once. But it’s fun and useful, and truthfully lends itself to being done every season. Many poolies don’t pause to consider the reality of there always being a number of skaters who will never again [...]
I have to hand it to the NHL for their arrangement of timeslots. They have finally figured out that they need to space out start times and not put all four games of the day into the usual 7pm EST slot. * The goalie timeshares are spilling over into the playoffs, and it may have [...]
In this week’s Eastern Edge, we’ll discuss players whose future fantasy value could be influenced by this year’s playoff performance. For the most part, we’ll talk about players who underperformed during the regular season that could change public perceptions with a strong showing in the postseason. These are players to keep in an eye on [...]
Kevin Hayes will be having core surgery. At present time, he doesn’t appear likely to miss training camp, which is obviously very good news for the Flyers.

Now that the regular season is mostly over, it’s time for fantasy general managers to take stock of the season and ask themselves: “Where did I go wrong?” In one-year pools, it most likely fell apart at the draft before the season even began. For those in keeper pools, maybe you overpaid for a few [...]
For the 14th time in 15 years (damn lockout), I am offering a playoff draft list for your playoff pools. This will be available for download Monday (so it may be available as you read this. It is an interactive list – you select your teams that go deep, run the rankings on the spreadsheet, [...]
Every Sunday, we'll share 21 Fantasy Rambles from our writers at DobberHockey. These thoughts are curated from the past week's ‘Daily Ramblings’. Writers/Editors: Ian Gooding, Michael Clifford, Alexander MacLean, and Dobber ___ 1. We probably wouldn't have known how strong a goalie Alex Nedeljkovic is if Petr Mrazek hadn't missed two months with a thumb [...]
Now that our annual fantasy hockey seasons have come to a collective end, I thought this week would be a great time for some reflection. Every year is guaranteed to have its fair share of both breakthrough stars and underachievers alike. A lot of times a player’s performance is heavily influenced by their team environment [...]
The Stanley Cup Playoffs kicked off on Saturday with Game 1 of the East Division series between the Bruins and Capitals. It ended with Nic Dowd tipping a T.J.
