Players to pickup in Fantasy Hockey

Erik Haula

Erik Haula is off to a great start with the Carolina Hurricanes, having put up 3 G and 2 PPP in his first 4 games.
Haula also has 13 SOG and 41 FW to go along with the 3 Goals and 2 PPP, which is a great fantasy statline.
If your league you league counts Faceoff wins, Haula is worth picking up.

Victor Olofsson

Victor Olofsson is off to a great start to the Season with the Buffalo Sabres, having scored 4 goals in his first 4 games.
Olofsson also had 4 PPP to go along with the 4 goals he has scored this season.
Playing on the Red hot Sabres Powerplay, Olofsson is a must add in any fantasy hockey league especially if you own Jack Eichel.

James Neal

James Neal already 7 Goals so far this season, with 5 of the goals being on the Powerplay
Obviously, James Neal isn't going to be the same player he was in Pittsburgh, but he certainly is capable of getting 25-30 goals.
Playing alongside Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl on the PP makes him a must add in any fantasy league.

Colin Miller

Colin Miller has had a great start with the Buffalo Sabres, having put up a point in 3 of his first 4 games.
Miller plays on the Buffalo Sabres' 2nd D pair with Rasmus Dahlin and on the 2nd PP unit.
Colin Miller should be a valuable 5th or 6th defenseman in a deep league.

Neal Pionk

Neal Pionk has fit in pretty well with the Winnipeg Jets; he has put up 2 G and 3 points along with 11 hits and 6 blks so far this season
Pionk is paired on the 1st D pair with Josh Morrissey and on the 2nd PP unit.
I wouldn't recommend picking up Pionk in a standard league but he could be a solid 5th or 6th defenseman in a deep league.

James Reimer

James Reimer is off to a great start with the Carolina Hurricanes; he is 2-0 with a 2.42 GAA and a .940 SV%.
While you don't rely on James Reimer to maintain this type of performance for the entire season, he should he be a solid 3rd goalie in a deep league.
If you have Petr Mrazek, it might be worth picking up James Reimer as the Carolina Hurricanes are off to a great start to the season.

Fantasy Hockey Forwards to Trade For

Here is a list of Players who you should consider trading for in Fantasy Hockey. Tage Thompson Tage Thompson had very high expectations of him heading into this season but has been a massive disappointment to this point in the season with only 7 goals, 8 assists, 4 PPP, 60 SOG, and 99 FW. Thompson has been better after coming back from injury and you would think that he is going to eventually start putting points in bunches. Because of how bad Thompson's statline is this season. it would be a good idea to trade for him because you may not have to give up a lot in return. Elias Lindholm Elias Lindholm is another player who has had a slow start to the season with only 7 goals, 10 assists, 3 PPP, 68 SOG, and 297 FW so far this season. Lindholm is definitely going to want to play better if he wants to increase his value for his next contract and also showcase himself for a trade at the deadline. If Lindholm gets dealt to a contending team, his fantasy value would drastically improve b

TIPS FOR DECIDING WHO TO KEEP FOR KEEPER/DYNASTY LEAGUES

Keeper fantasy leagues are a variation of traditional fantasy sports leagues where participants are allowed to keep a certain number of players from their previous season's roster onto their team for the upcoming season. The number of players that can be kept, as well as the specific rules regarding keeping players, vary from league to league and are typically determined by the league commissioner or by a set of agreed-upon rules among league members. In a keeper league, the kept players usually come with a cost, such as forfeiting a specific draft pick in the upcoming draft or having to pay a predetermined fee. This adds a strategic element to the game, as managers must decide which players to keep based on their performance, potential, and value relative to the cost of keeping them. Keeper leagues often provide a deeper level of engagement and strategy compared to standard fantasy leagues because managers need to consider long-term player development and roster management beyond

FANTASY HOCKEY WAIVER WIRE PLAYERS TO PICKUP

Here are some players you should pickup in Fantasy Hockey, sorted by position. Center Colton Sissons Colton Sissons is one of the best 4th line centers in the league, but in fantasy hockey, he could be even more valuable than he actually is in real life because of what he provides in the peripheral categories. So far this season Sissions has 5 goals, 1 PPP, 1 SHP, 12 PIM, 20 SOG, 89 FW, 15 hits, and 9 blocks. This is a terrific stat line and although you can't count on Sissons scoring a ton, he will fill out the FW, Hits, and blocks usually. Sissons is owned in 6% of fantasy leagues, snag him up while you can. Nick Bjugstad Nick Bjugstad is having an excellent year so far with the Arizona Coyotes, in fact he has played so well that he earned himself a promotion to play on the 2nd line along with Mattias Maccelli and Lawson Crouse.
