Bounceback Players in Fantasy Hockey

Nick Schmaltz

Nick Schmaltz only put up 7 G and 25 points in 40 games in the 2018-19 season;
he already has 4 G and 13 pts in 14 games so far this season.
Nick Schmaltz has been one of the best Arizona Coyotes this season is on track for a bounceback year.

JT Miller

JT Miller had a subpar year last season, putting up only 13 G and 47 points in 75 games;
so far this season, JT Miller has 6 G and 15 points in 14 games.
JT Miller is a perfect fit on the line with Elias Pettersson and Brock Boeser and is off to a great start in Vancouver.

James Neal

James Neal was acquired by the Edmonton Oilers in a trade with the Calgary Flames for Milan Lucic in the offseason in what was essentially a cap dump for both teams
Neal was in and out of the lineup with the Flames last year and only had 7 Goals and 19 points the entire season;
So far this season, Neal has 11 Goals, with 8 of them being on the PP.
Playing alongside Superstars like Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl on the PP in Edmonton will ensure that James Neal will have at least 30 Goals this season.

Sami Vatanen

Sami Vatanen struggled with injuries last season; he only put up 4 Goals, 17 points and was a -17 in 50 GP.
Vatanen has gotten off to a great start to the season, putting up 4 Goals and 7 points in 12 GP;
Vatanen plays on the Devils' 1st PP unit, so for that reason he should continue to have good fantasy value.

Justin Schultz

Justin Schultz only played in 29 games due to injury last season, so he didn't have much fantasy impact.
With the injuries the Penguins have had early in the season, Schultz has gotten time on the Penguins 1st PP
and his fantasy value will go up with due to Kris Letang miss an extended period of time.

Carter Hutton

Carter Hutton had a terrible season last year; he had a 18-25-5 record with a 3.00 GAA and .908 SV%.
Hutton has gotten off to a great start to this season; he has a 6-2-1 record with a 2.09 GAA, .928 SV% and 2 SO.
While you don't expect Hutton to continue putting up these type of numbers, he should still be a solid third goalie.

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...

Fantasy Hockey All Star Edition Defenseman

 These are the best defenseman so far this season in Fantasy Hockey: Rasmus Dahlin Rasmus Dahlin has been by far the best defenseman in Fantasy this season, and it isn't close; he has 13 goals, 35 assists, 23 PPP, 119 SOG and a +16 rating on a bad Buffalo team. If Dahlin can sustain this type of production for the rest of the season, he will be a favorite to win the Norris trophy. Cale Makar Cale Makar has been a tad bit disappointing considering he was a top 5 pick in most fantasy drafts, but he is still having a fantastic season; he has tallied 13 goals, 30 assists, 21 PPP, 136 SOG, along with 3 GWG and a +7 rating. His dip in production may be due in large part to the injuries on Colorado, but as the team gets healthy, look for a strong second half from Cale Makar and Colorado. Roman Josi Roman Josi has once again been the best player for the Nashville Predators, putting up 12 goals, 23 assists, 17 PPP, 187 SOG, 4 GWG and a surprising 100 blocks, which is only 33 shy of last yea...

Fantasy Hockey Advice Players to Trade Away

Here are some players you should Trade Away: Brock Nelson Brock Nelson has a track record of having hot starts to the season and then cooling off in the second half of the season. Nelson already has 11 goals, 22 points, and 6 PPP so far this season, but his best scoring season was last year when he had 37 goals and 59 points. It's already established what type of player Brock Nelson is, he is a player who excels in the first half of the season but cools off in the second half. For this reason, it would be best to trade away Brock Nelson.  Dominik Kubalik Dominik Kubalik is arguably the biggest steal in fantasy hockey this season, as he wasn't drafted in many leagues, however, his hot start has him rostered in 81% of Fantasy leagues. Kubalik has 9 goals, 13 assists, 10 PPP, and is a +4 so far this season, playing on a line with Dylan Larkin and Lucas Raymond and Detroit's 1st PP unit. It would be a good idea to trade Kubalik now while his value is sky-high. Martin Necas Mart...
