The human side of the Buffalo Sabres’ 18-game winless streak of 2021
When Krueger was dismissed on March 17, assistant Don Granato was appointed interim coach. Granato, 53, is a member of one of America’s most prominent hockey families. His younger sister, Cammi, is a Hockey Hall of Famer, and now a pro scout for the Kraken. His older brother Tony played 774 NHL games and now […]

Despite the difficulties, teams are making plans, as reported by ESPN’s Greg Wyshynski. So let’s take a look at some of the players being discussed as trade bait with a fantasy-lens. Complete your bracket by selecting the winner in each of the games in the NCAA tournament from the Sweet 16 to the championship. Tournament […]

I also want to take stock of the position through analyzing fantasy points per 60 (FPP60) and crease share to date, while looking forward and projecting those stats. But I’m also shortening the bench for a distilled look at the stats. Here’s a quick rundown on how some key fantasy goaltenders have performed since Feb. […]

Tarasenko has been a consistent contributor of 2.2 fantasy points per game (FPPG) for a couple of seasons now. At that pace, he would project for a further 66 fantasy points this season, which slots him in at No. 55 among all skaters. Of course, that is assuming he can recapture his usual pace quickly, […]

Clayton Keller, C/LW/RW, Arizona Coyotes (36.6%): Following a largely uninspired January, the 22-year-old has six goals and eight assists in 14 contests, including three goals and two helpers in his past four. That point-per-game pace – a good number of them counting with the extra skater – merits more love across ESPN.com’s fantasy spectrum. Take […]

Hits and blocked shots, however, are less likely to ebb and flow for the non-elite fantasy assets. The same is somewhat true of shots. They are stats that can be collected by a player for fantasy points independent of deployment. Not completely independent, mind you, but to an extent, taking those actions doesn’t rely on […]
Continue readingFantasy hockey rankings Week 6 update: Top four goalies to trade for
Based on current season fantasy points per 60 minutes (FPP60), games remaining for each club and each goaltender’s timeshare percentage in their team’s crease, only four goaltenders are projected to accumulate more than 100 points from this stage forward. And of those four, fantasy managers could only feel really good about Andrei Vasilevskiy and Semyon […]
Continue readingNHL Power Rankings: 1-31 poll, plus stocks to buy or sell for each team in 2021
We’re one month into the 2021 NHL season, and there’s already been plenty of market fluctuation. In this week’s edition of ESPN’s Power Rankings, we identify what NHL team-related stocks are worth buying or selling. How we rank: The ESPN hockey editorial staff submits selections ranking teams 1 to 31 — taking into account game […]
Continue readingFantasy hockey rankings Week 5 update: Hold onto Jordan Staal and Bryan Rust
If we take a player’s fantasy points per game (FPPG) and multiply it by the number of games they have left, that’s how much fantasy value they have remaining — again, assuming a static pace forward (which we know isn’t the case). Join or create a league in the No. 1 Fantasy Hockey game, and […]
Continue readingFantasy hockey waiver watch: Nick Schmaltz and Max Comtois lead weekly pickups
Nick Schmaltz, C/LW/RW, Arizona Coyotes (33.5%): Somewhat quietly, the Coyotes’ top center has amassed six goals and six assists in 14 games – a third of those points counting with the man-advantage. Competing with Conor Garland and Clayton Keller, Schmaltz will continue to produce with regularity. Useful in all but the shallowest of standard ESPN.com […]
