After months of rehab from his hip surgery, Tyler Seguin made his season’s debut for the Stars on Monday night. He started the game on the fourth line but we know how these things can go. There was a good article over at The Athletic written by Saad Yousuf about Seguin’s road to recovery. It [...]

“It's better to finish at the peak or soon after it, than to wait until the audience notices a decline.” This quote comes from German composer and double bassist Eberhard Weber. I’m pretty sure he was referring to playing music, but he very well could have been talking about rostering players in fantasy hockey. All [...]
I’m starting to wonder if it’s better to just swing for the fences with every draft pick. To always go for that Golden Boy, even if it means waiting two to four years. Take the sure prospect and ignore the hunch prospect. Or leave the “hunch prospect” for the final pick, if you really need [...]

Finding value can be tough at [...]

It was the kind of day where Craig Smith was way more valuable to fantasy owners than David Pastrnak. Many fantasy owners (such as myself) made the decision to drop Smith after he had gone five games [...]
Welcome back to The Journey. In last week’s edition, I covered the Top Rising Forwards Prospects for April. Here is a quick update: Eeli Tolvanen was finally beginning to find his footing at the NHL level with 10 points in his most recent eight games. At the time last week’s edition was posted, however, he [...]
Don’t look now, but your boy is on a bit of a roll to end off the regular in style. Last week’s 5-1 overall showing and Gold, Silver, Bronze sweep pushes my 2021 record north of the .500 mark for the first time since the start of the 2021 campaign - lots more where that [...]
Holy games! You can’t pack more hockey into a Saturday if you tried as there’s a whopping 15 games on tap and every team is in action except the Winnipeg Jets. I’ll pretend I didn’t look ahead to the one, single game scheduled for Sunday and just try to enjoy Saturday first. Of those 15 [...]
