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.

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. Bjugstad also gets time on Arizona's 2nd PP unit and 2nd PK unit. Bjugstad may not be a name who stands out to casuals, but his fantasy stat line is
