Mark Barbour (@18sktrs, 18skaters.com) The inspiration for this article came when I updated my skater projections the other day. I noticed that an intriguing skater has emerged as a potential Round-1 selection in some fantasy hockey drafts. It wasn’t Jason Robertson or Tage Thompson, though both of those skaters are rising in my projections. No, it wasContinue reading “Trade Target: Jack Hughes”

Mark Barbour (@18sktrs, patreon.com/18skaters) What Is This? I’m trying something new here: using a bot to identify “streamers” for fantasy hockey. What you’ll find below are robo-picked skaters who play on 2 or more “off days” over the next week, and who are on a roster in less than 60% of Yahoo leagues.

Josh Hutchinson (@JustJoshin41) Happy New Year everybody! My apologies for not putting out the power rankings for week 12.

Breakout Goal Scorers
Mark Barbour (@18sktrs, patreon.com/18skaters) This week I’m taking another look at skaters who are under the age of 24 and have some “breakout” goal scoring potential. The last time I wrote this type of article I identified Dylan Cozens as a skater to watch (click here to read that article). I got lucky there as DylanContinue reading “Breakout Goal Scorers”
What’s Going On With Auston Matthews?
Mark Barbour (@18sktrs, patreon.com/18skaters) This week I’m looking at the leading goal scorers in the NHL and I have my eye on one in particular: Auston Matthews. Coming into this season I expected Matthews to be the best goal scorer in the league, and my personal skater projections still think that should be the case.Continue reading “What’s Going On With Auston Matthews?”

Josh Hutchinson (@JustJoshin41) We have two (!) #ZeroG to Victory graduates this week! Karel Vejmelka and Pyotr Kochetkov have both surpassed 50% rostered in Yahoo leagues. These two were not drafted in most leagues but in the last 30 days they were both in the top 10 goalies in KKUPFL scoring. I hope you pickedContinue reading “#ZeroG to Victory: Week 11 Power Rankings”
