#ZeroG to Victory: Week 8 Power Rankings
Josh Hutchinson (@JustJoshin41) I hope you all streamed Karel Vejmelka like I told you to last week! As it stands currently (before Sunday’s game against Minnesota) in two starts this week Vejmelka has recorded 1 win, 1 shutout, 69 saves (nice) and a combined .945 save percentage. That’s not bad for a free add! UnfortunatelyContinue reading “#ZeroG to Victory: Week 8 Power Rankings”
Rising Scorers Who Are Under-24
Mark Barbour (@18sktrs, patreon.com/18skaters) One of the most rewarding things you can do in fantasy hockey is snag a rising star before someone else in your league grabs him. Unfortunately, this is also one of the most difficult things to do in fantasy hockey. Frankly, I tend to stay away from unproven players because there’sContinue reading “Rising Scorers Who Are Under-24”

#ZeroG to Victory: Week 7 Power Rankings
Josh Hutchinson (@JustJoshin41) We may finally be able to close the book on the Oilers goaltending conversation (at least for now), not only because Stuart Skinner is now more than 50% rostered in Yahoo leagues and has graduated from the #ZeroG power rankings, but also because he’s started 3 straight games. With the price tagContinue reading “#ZeroG to Victory: Week 7 Power Rankings”
Who’s Getting More Time-On-Ice?
Mark Barbour (@18sktrs, patreon.com/18skaters) This week I’m looking at skaters who are getting a bump in Time-On-Ice (“TOI”). Stating the obvious here: more TOI means more opportunities to register the counting stats that we want in fantasy hockey. The data for this article were pulled from Natural Stat Trick and include games played on or before NovemberContinue reading “Who’s Getting More Time-On-Ice?”

#ZeroG to Victory: Week 6 Power Rankings
Josh Hutchinson (@JustJoshin41) I hope you all got your Martin Jones adds in last week because he is our most recent #ZeroG power rankings graduate. He’s now 59% rostered in Yahoo leagues. Who would have thought Martin Jones, who hasn’t had a season save percentage above .900 since the 2017-18 season, would be sitting prettyContinue reading “#ZeroG to Victory: Week 6 Power Rankings”
Early Season Hot And Cold Goal Scorers
Mark Barbour (@18sktrs, patreon.com/18skaters) In this article I’m going to look at some interesting cases where a skater’s expected goals differ from his actual goals. My approach relies on something I call individual expected goal differential, or “ixGd”. Not sure what that is? No problem – it’s all explained below. Note: the raw data used forContinue reading “Early Season Hot And Cold Goal Scorers”
