Fantasy Hockey Advice Defenseman to Drop

 Here are some players you should drop in Fantasy Hockey:



Seth Jones

Although Seth Jones is having a solid year, he is playing on the worst teams in the league, which has resulted in him getting the worst +/- in the league. Jones has 1 Goal, 8 assists, and 5 PPP but is a -21, which in some leagues may be bad enough to offset his offensive production. I don't see Seth Jones turning it around this season, so you should consider dropping Seth Jones if you still have him on your team.


John Klingberg

John Klingberg has decent offensive production, with 4 goals, 7 assists, and 3 PPP but is a -15 because he plays for a terrible Anaheim Ducks team. Unless Klingberg is traded to a contender, I don't see him having significant fantasy contributions, and you can definitely find a better replacement on the waiver wire than him.


Cam Fowler

Cam Fowler is having a decent season so far this season, with 4 goals, 12 assists, and 7 PPP but is a -9 because he plays for a bad Anaheim Ducks team. It seems like every season, Fowler has stretches in which will be really good, but on the other hand, he has stretches where he can go pointless. Fowler is owned in 15% of Fantasy leagues, and that percentage should drop if and when he goes on a scoring drought.


Colton Parayko

Colton Parayko has continuously been a disappointment in fantasy, and this season has arguably been the most disappointing start to the season that he has had. Parayko had 1 goal, 7 assists, 1 PPP, and is a -6, along with 57 SOG, 51 hits, and 51 blocks; he has value in CAT leagues, but not in standard leagues. Parayko is owned in 12% of Fantasy Leagues, and I could see more owners dropping him if St.Louis continues to struggle.


Calen Addison

Calen Addison has been a revelation on the Man advantage for the Minnesota Wild, with 2 goals, 13 assists, and 11 PPP but is a -9 and doesn't provide value in other categories other than assists and PPP. Addison has been playing less lately and has been strictly used as a PP specialist, so unless you are in desperate need of PPP, I would suggest finding a different defenseman. Addison is owned in 11% and I can see him getting dropped more if his playing time continues to decrease.


Sam Girard

Sam Girard is a player who has been a massive disappointment for two straight years in fantasy; many owners gave him the benefit of doubt that he was injured last season, but not anymore. Girard is having another dud year, recording 1 goal, 4 assists, 2 PPP, and is a -8; at this point, just cut your losses and find another player to replace him because he isn't helping at all. Girard is only owned in 10% of leagues and I could see that percentage dropping if he continues to record zeros across the board.

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 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...
