Fantasy Hockey Advice Left Wingers to Drop

 Here are some Left Wingers you should consider dropping:



Andre Burakovsky

Andre Burakovsky got off to a hot start to the season with the Seattle Kraken, but in the last two weeks of the season, he has failed to register either a goal or a point. Burakovsky is still owned in 43% of fantasy leagues, but that number will decrease drastically if his scoring slump continues. Burakovsky has a track record of being highly inconsistent, I would consider dropping him if you find better options on the waiver wire.


Tyler Bertuzzi

Tyler Bertuzzi is having a rough season so far, only having recorded 1 goal, 3 assists, and 1 PPP in 9 games. Bertuzzi has been injured twice already this season for an extended period of time and his production doesn't warrant using an IR spot to keep him. If you still own Bertuzzi, I would cut bait now because you could probably still pick him up when he is healthy again.


Alexis Lafreniere

Alexis Lafreniere was a healthy scratch recently for the New York Rangers, and before that had only recorded 1 point in the last two weeks. If Lafreniere is not moved to another team, I don't see him turning his season around, so I would probably drop him and replace him with better players.


Anthony Cirelli

Anthony Cirelli has been decent since his return to the lineup for the Tampa Bay Lightning, tallying 1 goal, 7 points, 1 PPP, 35 SOG, 78 FW, and a +3 rating. Cirelli doesn't particularly excel in any category and has failed to register a point in the last two weeks. I would consider dropping Cirelli in favor of players who can fill up garbage categories.


Ivan Barbashev

Ivan Barbashev is having a slow start to the season, having only put up 5 goals, 11 assists, 3 PPP, 56 SOG, 80 hits, along with 1 GWG. Barbashev hasn't been getting much of a chance to showcase his offensive skillset with St.Louis this season, as he has bounced around the lineup frequently. Barbashev is owned in 14% of fantasy leagues, and that percentage could decrease if he continues to have scoring woes.


Jaden Schwartz

After a red-hot start to the season, Schwartz only has record 2 points and a -5 in the last month of the season. Schwartz is owned in only 5% of Fantasy leagues, and is not fantasy relevant anymore unless you are in a deep league.

    Not sure I would drop Barbashev in a week Tarasenko and O'Reilly both got long term injuries. He is about to get an instant promotion to PP1 and Brayden Schenn is being moved to C

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...

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...
