Welcome to the Week 3 fantasy hockey waiver wire article, which has a few more appealing names than Week 2. It’s still very early in the NHL season, so you should be patient with your rosters. Even if you’re dealing with a couple of injuries, I would hang tight for now. It’s a long season […]

2021-22 NHL Season Preview: Fantasy Sleepers and Undervalued Players
Below are a few undervalued fantasy hockey targets in the 2021-2022 season for your NHL drafts. You could call these players sleepers if you want, but it’s hard to call a former 38-goal scorer a sleeper, so I went with the term undervalued. I don’t think a player who flirted with 40 goals is going […]

2021-22 NHL season preview: Central Division
The NHL’s Central Division was around during the shortened 2021 season, but the alignment has reverted back to the 2019-20 format with the addition of Arizona as the eighth team. This division is both easy and difficult to handicap, as the Colorado Avalanche should be the class of the division and run away with both […]

After a year hiatus due to COVID-19 restructuring, the NHL’s Atlantic Division returns with some changes for the 2021-2022 season. The Florida Panthers, Tampa Bay Lightning and Detroit Red Wings come back in from the Central Division and collide with a mix of multiple divisions. It looks like we are getting closer to how things […]

2021-22 NHL season preview: Pacific Division
After a year hiatus due to travel restrictions, the NHL’s Pacific Division returns with a small change — the expansion Seattle Kraken have taken the place of the Arizona Coyotes, as Arizona has moved to the Central Division. Overall, this division is extremely poor defensively with seven of the eight teams coming in with […]

The NHL’s Metropolitan Division is back after a one-year hiatus. Six of the eight teams from last season’s East Division are back to compete together, along with Carolina and Columbus.

There are several sleeper, bust and breakout candidates throughout the fantasy hockey draft guide, but I wanted to dig a bit deeper so I hit up every team. I have a sleeper, breakout, bust and a stud listed for all 31 teams in the NHL. And no, I didn’t list names like Nathan MacKinnon or […]

Fantasy sleeper candidates for the 2021 NHL season
Below, you’ll see a few fantasy hockey sleepers to consider for the 2020-21 NHL season. Sleeper is just another term for value. You can pretty much label anyone a sleeper as long as they present value on draft day. They can be a 16-year vet expected to bounce-back or a young player expected to breakout. […]
