Fantasy hockey dynasty rankings: The best players of 2026
As a reminder, these rankings stem from a spreadsheet that attempts to project the future fantasy production of all relevant players, including many that haven’t laced up skates in the NHL ever. The ranking is simply the product of adding up all the projected fantasy scoring by each player over the next five seasons. Players […]

The Seattle Kraken are joining the NHL for the 2021-22 season and will play in the Pacific Division. The front office and coaching staff have taken shape, and Climate Pledge Arena is on track to be ready, but the team needs players.

Rask wouldn’t disclose the nature of his ailments after the Bruins’ 6-2 loss to the Islanders in Game 6 on Wednesday night, which eliminated Boston from the playoffs. “I don’t think that needs to be the headline now,” said the goalie, who stopped 23 of 27 shots in the loss.

No, there’s no reason to suspect a further spiralling of the planet into some Lovecraftian horror. It’s the Seattle Kraken that will wrap their tentacles around players and pull them into the Northwest.

The poor fantasy managers invested in the Calgary Flames can’t be pleased with the remaining schedule. The Flames only have five more games to count for fantasy. The Los Angeles Kings, Canucks, St. Louis Blues and Colorado Avalanche, for example, have 10. Vince Dunn is more appealing than Mark Giordano under these circumstances, and it’s […]

Phil Kessel, RW, Arizona Coyotes (51.0%): The Coyotes need Kessel to be at his best if they’re to hold realistic hope of keeping the Blues at bay for the fourth and final playoff spot in the West. Especially with Conor Garland out week-to-week with a lower-body injury. Fortunately, “Phil the Thrill” is usually more effective […]
