Agree with FUFH on this along with the general public. Just an unnecessary move by @YahooFantasy. The gap in popularity of fantasy football and hockey just got larger. Part of the draw for football is not being required to update lineups daily. Yahoo just took that from us in hockey.
FantasyPuck Update: After a lot of discussion and consideration, we have decided not to continue with FantasyPuck this season. FP has been a fun and exciting project for us. What started six years ago with nothing more than a love for hockey and fantasy sports grew into an incredible community of thousands of passionate hockey fans. We’ll always be grateful for everything we were able to build together. I (FP Mike) began FP during the Covid-19 pandemic. Eventually recruiting long-time friends FP Don, FP Chris and FP Sven, we had plenty of free time to curate and develop a fantasy hockey brand. Over the years, continuing to push FP toward growth and becoming a leader in the fantasy hockey space came with a significant commitment. Today, the FP team balances full-time careers, relationships, family & friends and activities that take time away from fantasy hockey. The work that goes into a season felt more and more like a chore than a passion. We feel like the time is right to step back and prioritize other commitments. The Discord will remain open. We’ve built a great community here, and there’s no reason to shut it down. We’ll still be around and hope the friendships and conversations within the community continue. FPPL, although we have seen the excitement for another season, will also not be continuing. The organization, scheduling, administrative work and livestreams still require a significant amount of time and effort that we do not feel we can adequately provide to the community. Similar to our other content, we do not feel like it would be fair to the community to continue without being able to give the level of effort and commitment you deserve. A huge thank you to FP Don, FP Chris, and FP Sven for being incredible friends and teammates throughout this journey. Thank you to all of our moderators, especially Wick3d, who has been with us since the early days, as well as Barzy, Dip, Chadilac, Salty, Soaring Ostrich, Aladoma, Ham and DDH Jake. Thank you to everyone who watched, supported and followed FantasyPuck over these past six years. YOU are what made FantasyPuck special and what kept us coming back each year. We’ll still be around in the Discord, so this isn’t necessarily goodbye forever. Maybe one day we’ll miss it enough to come back. Love you all, and thank you for everything.
Jack Hughes fantasy owners need to be real with themselves over the next 2 months. Our advice would go as follows: If you are comfortably in a playoff spot and have not been hit with the injury bug - HOLD If you are outside of a playoff spot and underperforming, consider selling Hughes for some assets to win 5-6 of the next 8 weeks. Look for a 2nd or 3rd round ADP and some extra pieces.
This year’s Ross Colton? Bolduc makes for a fine add as a bench Fwd on your fantasy teams. Can drop someone along the lines of Laine, McTavish, Lindholm, DeBrusk, Schmaltz.
Surely the #Preds don’t start Brady Martin at 1C in his debut right? I look through that lineup but no other obvious options jump out. Martin is worth an add in a deep league. 2025 5th overall pick.
Something to monitor on Markstrom. He was pretty good value as G14 off the board in #fantasyhockey drafts. Jake Allen also left Monday’s games with cramps so it doesn’t appear to be severe.
Never want to look too deep into preseason stats, but certainly a good sign for Tage, Wyatt and Norris who we have seen drafted frequently. Hendrix Lapierre worth a look in deep leagues as he looks to take another step forward this season.
5 Sleepers we are drafting in ALL of our #fantasyhockey leagues: 🧵 😴
Luke: 😀 Meier: ☹️ Mercer: 🤨
Blackwood on conditioning loan to AHL. Expect him back before EOW.
Since Rick Bowness took over in #CBJ they have gone 5-1-0. The D has undergone some changes (Mateychuk -> IR, Gudbranson activated, so it’s not quite fair to evaluate the D ATOI changes. On fwd, Kent Johnson is seeing +3 mins ATOI, Fantilli is ~ +1.5 mins. Voronkov has seen the biggest drop (-4.5 mins) since the new coach.
❌Avoid These Players❌ in your #fantasyhockey drafts. 🔗 t.co/Yvt0fONN5u
Have not verified this but I believe Boldy put together the best fantasy week of the season this past week. 4 GP 6 G 6 A 5 PPP 25 SOG 2 H 4 BLKS
Draft these guys in your #fantasyhockey leagues this year, because they are about to skyrocket in value. 📈📈 Top Breakout Players for 2025-26: 🔗 t.co/FkbZkA3Cck
Sean Walker (#CarolinaCulture) has quietly turned himself into a great bangers D. Only 11% owned on Yahoo, he is one of four D this season with 75+ blocks, 75+ hits and 75+ sog. He ranks 10th amongst all D this season in SOG with 111. Consider him for your D4 or D5 spot in bangers leagues.
Buy Low📉 Sell High 📈 FP Chris with the names you need to be targeting in trades or holding strong on. #fantasyhockey 🔗 t.co/jIvxuTepv5
Weegar has been tough to own in #fantasyhockey, particularly in +/- leagues. Despite his drop in production, he is the only skater this year with 50+ shots, hits and blocks.
SOG/gm YoY changes (min. 5 GP this yr., 10 GP last yr.) 1. Cutter Gauthier +2.41 2. Jason Robertson +1.68 3. Corey Perry +1.48 4. Roope Hintz +1.39 5. Jordan Harris +1.35 1. Willy Nylander -1.53 2. Jake Walman -1.52 3. Alex Ovechkin -1.40 4. Warren Foegele -1.13 5. Gus Forsling -1.10
