Now that most of the regular season has concluded and your hockey leagues have wrapped up, you’re probably already thinking ahead to your playoff hockey pool. Pretty much every race is determined, and with a couple of exceptions, most of the playoff matches are set. The first few rounds of a playoff draft are often [...]
For the 15th time in 16 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). I had to quit working on it to write these Ramblings, but even with that minor delay I expect [...]
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. There were significant concerns about Minnesota's centre position this year, especially after Marco Rossi was lost for the year. That made me [...]
You could feel it in the air. Connor McDavid would hit 100 points on Saturday, even though he still needed four points to get there. He flew off the blocks by scoring a goal in the opening minute. 97, to match his jersey number. Nearly seven minutes into the second period, he assisted on Jesse [...]
Welcome back to The Journey. In last week’s edition, I wrote a Part 2 of top rising forward prospects for April.

See below for the total Gold, Silver, Bronze breakdown, but [...]
Well friends, we’ve reached the final Saturday of the regular season (excluding the one Vancouver-Edmonton make-up game on the schedule). When the season kicked off four months ago, I wasn’t too sure this day would come, especially on time, but the league was able to pull it off. How they managed certain situations is certainly [...]
The main beneficiary of Alex Ovechkin’s absence from the lineup (now nearly two weeks) has been Daniel Sprong. With another goal on Friday, Sprong now has six goals in his last six games. Currently he’s on what should be considered the Capitals’ top scoring line with Nicklas Backstrom and Anthony Mantha. Sprong is still only [...]
So… quite the Capitals-Rangers game on Wednesday night. Next season’s rematch should be highly anticipated. Whether you liked it or not, it undoubtedly grabbed your attention. No surprise that the Rangers were fined $250,000 for their statement regarding Tom Wilson and George Parros. As much as publicly calling for someone to be fired from their [...]
