Fantasy hockey rankings Week 6 update: Top four goalies to trade for

Fantasy 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 […]

We have a larger-than-usual batch of new faces to the rankings this week, with 22 players shuffled in and 22 shuffled out. Why? With close to a quarter of the season on the books, it feels like a good chance to do some “spring cleaning” of the ranks. There are more than a few dust […]

Why Tampa Bay Lightning GM Julien BriseBois’ job only gets harder after Stanley Cup win

The 1980 Team USA hockey “Miracle on Ice” is folklore. Cinderella teams are more compelling than No. 1 seeds in March Madness. Unless it’s part of a dynasty, hearing an absurdly talented team talk about how hard it is to win a championship is like hearing a billionaire complain about a dearth of island vacation […]

On brink of OT, Nikita Kucherov’s goal gives Tampa Bay Lightning 2-0 lead on New York Islanders

Losing leading scorer Brayden Point to injury and Alex Killorn to ejection after going into the game with just 11 forwards, the Lightning played much of Game 2 of the Eastern Conference finals with nine.
