Fantasy hockey season preview: Guide to centers
In all seriousness, I’ve done the number-crunching in previous iterations of this article and the fact is that there is no discernible difference in the statistics you will be drafting from your average center versus your average winger in most standard leagues. For the purposes of building your fantasy hockey team in default ESPN leagues, […]

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. The Kraken will select one player each from 30 NHL teams, as the […]

The Stars also traded forward Jason Dickinson to the Vancouver Canucks for a 2021 third-round pick before rosters had to be set for the Seattle expansion draft. The move was designed to keep the club from losing the 26-year-old to the Kraken for nothing. Heiskanen will count $8.45 million against the salary cap through 2028-29. […]

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 Vegas Golden Knights get to skip this expansion draft, being relatively new to the league themselves. But that also offers a […]
Continue readingDallas Stars’ Roope Hintz to have surgery next week for tendon issue
General manager Jim Nill said Friday that Hintz played through “an avulsion injury of the left adductor tendon,” which he explained was a small chunk of bone attached to the adductor pulling away where the tendon attaches to the pelvis area.

Continue readingFantasy hockey rankings Week 13 update: Is it time to drop Logan Couture or Tyler Toffoli?
Default head-to-head leagues are into the second week of the playoffs, with the championship all that remains after this week. Points and rotisserie leagues don’t have to sweat the nuances of that schedule, but the pressure created by minimal games really puts a strain on the value. While season-long success can still inform decision-making, the […]
Continue readingDallas Stars goalie Ben Bishop, wing Alexander Radulov done for year
There was some hope at the trade deadline that Radulov could return to spark the Stars, but general manager Jim Nill said on Wednesday that the 34-year-old right winger will require surgery to repair a core muscle injury. Radulov had 12 points in 11 games this season before leaving the lineup on March 18 with […]

Some teams only have a dozen games left in the fantasy season. There are no more excuses for a player, no more wait-and-see approach. If a player isn’t putting up points on your fantasy roster, you don’t need him. Baseball is back, and so is fantasy! Get the gang back together, or start a new […]
