Players to pickup in Fantasy Hockey

Marcus Johansson

Marcus Johansson is having a bounceback season and is off to a great start with Buffalo Sabres.
Centering a line with Jeff Skinner and Vladimir Sokotka, Johansson has put up 3 G, 5 Pts and 1 PPP along with 18 FW.
Marcus Johansson could be valuable in a deep league because he is eligible to play Center and LW.

Zach Aston Reese

Zach Aston Reese is a very valuable player to have in a deep league; due to injuries to key players, the Penguins have had to rely on the line of Zach Aston Reese-Teddy Blueger and Brandon Tanev to play heavy minutes.
Aston Reese has 2 G and 4 pts along with 15 SOG, 20 Hits and 6 blks so far this season, which is a really good fantasy statline.

Andre Burakovsky

Andre Burakovsky is off to a great start with the Colorado Avalanche and is major reason why the Avs have a 5-1 record.
Burakovsky has put up 2 G and 5 pts along with 2 GWG so far this season; he has fantasy value in most leagues because he has duel eligiblity on LW and RW.

Sean Walker

Sean Walker has been a plesant surprise for the LA Kings so far this season; he has 2 G, 4 pts, 15 SOG and is a +4.
Walker would be a good pickup if you need a defenseman in a deep league.

Brian Dumoulin

Brian Dumoulin isn't likely to be owned in a standard league but he could be a very valuable defenseman in a deep league.
Dumoulin has 2 pts, 10 SOG, 16 hits, 8 blks and is a +6 so far this season; Dumoulin is a great defenseman to have in a league that counts his and blks.

Joonas Korpisalo

Joonas Korpisalo is actually playing tremendous hockey for the Columbus Blue jackets but its going un-noticed.
Korpisalo has 3 W, a 2.60 GAA and .903 SV% so far this season.
For a team not expected to do well, Korpisalo and the blue jackets are surpassing the expectation set for them.
While Korpisalo is NOT by any means a stud fantasy goalie, he could be a solid 3rd goalie in fantasy.

Fantasy Hockey Keeper League Advice

Keeper leagues add a layer of strategy and long-term planning to fantasy hockey. Every keeper league has its own unique rules and scoring settings, so adjust your strategy accordingly. By following these tips and adapting to your league's specific dynamics, you can increase your chances of long-term success. Here are some tips to help you dominate your Fantasy Hockey Keeper Leagues. Number of Keepers and League Settings When deciding on keepers, it is very important to know how many keepers the league allows you to keep and the league scoring system, because there are players that work better in H2H CAT leagues as opposed to H2H leagues with standard scoring categories.  If you can only keep a few players, focus on those who provide the most value in your specific scoring format. Keep players who excel in categories that are heavily weighted in your league (e.g., power-play points, hits, blocks, faceoffs). If the league uses Rotisserie or Points settings, you will have to take that...

2024 Offseason Preview ft. New Jersey Devils

The New Jersey Devils the playoffs in the 2023-24 season after making it into the second round of the playoffs last season, and finished the season with a total of 81 points, a 38-39-5 record; With Jack Hughes and Nico Hischier in the midst of their primes, the New Jersey Devils really need to start to buckle down and put together the pieces for a contending team. The good news is that the New Jersey Devils have the benefit of having the 10th overall pick, which they could move to acquire a netminder, and they also have plenty of cap space to add other players as well. This coming offseason is a big one for the New Jersey Devils front office because after striking out on a netminder last offseason, the pressure to acquire a netminder this offseason is immense for GM Tom Fitzgerald, who might be on the hotseat if he can't find a way to fix the mess. Before the 2024 NHL Draft, the New Jersey Devils make two major trades New Jersey Devils acquire Jacob Markstrom, Matthew Coronato, 1st...

2024 Offseason Preview ft. St. Louis Blues

 The St. Louis Blues just missed out on the playoffs again in the 2023-24 season, and finished the season with a total of 92 points, a 43-33-6 record; St. Louis is one of those teams that has no direction, as they are stuck with a lot of aging players with bad contracts and are stuck in mediocracy unless they can find a way to move some of those contracts. Moving forward the Blues' primary goals should be trying to unload their bad contracts to gain picks and cap space and retool through the draft.  St. Louis has 8 draft picks in the 2024 NHL draft, this is who they should select. 2024 NHL Draft: 16-Michael Hage (C) 48-Spencer Gill (D) 56-Carson Wetsch (RW) 81-Timur Kol (D) 94-Hagen Burrows (LW) 113-Felix Lacerte (C) 145-Dawson Cowan (G) 209-Jan Golcic (D) 211-Maxim Velikov (RW) Though no big names jump out at you, this group of prospects is pretty solid and could play a vital role on the team a few years down the road. Retooling the Prospect pool is a long process, but the cr...
