  It took until the last games of the 2008 regular NHL season to determine the final playoff spots and for 14 franchises, the message sent is ,"You are not good enough!" The NHL step-children left out of this year's version of the post-season tournament are ( in reverse order of their point standings to date) : Los Angeles ; Tampa Bay ; Atlanta ; St.Louis ; New York Islanders ; Columbus ; Phoenix ; Toronto ; Florida ; Buffalo ; Edmonton ; Vancouver ; Chicago ; and Carolina.

• NHL Weekly Fantasy Minute (3/31)

  As this is the final NHL Fantasy Minute for this season, I wish to thank any and all that have read and used the information offered in past weeks for this post. Any suggestions as to improvements or information that might be more useful to fantasy owners would be welcomed. Usually, I have focused on late developing fantasy impacts that happened on either Saturday or Sunday of a given week that might have been missed or not occurred when other posts were printed. With those caveats, onward and forward... Posted Mar 31 2008, 10:09 AM by hduckwall with | with no comments Filed under: hduckwall, NHL Weekly Fantasy Hockey, NHL Weekly Fantasy Minute

• NHL Buy 'n Sell (3/30)

  This will be the last installment of NHL Buy 'n Sell this season. For those of you that have read and used the information offered here each week, thank you! This installment will be aimed for those that are in leagues that continue on in fantasy competition after the regular NHL season is done and over with. Buy Wayne Dubielewicz (New York Islanders - Goal): Replacing a franchise goaltender at the end of a season is not an enviable position to be in, but Dubielewicz seems to have been in the...

• NHL Top Weekly Performances - Centers

  This week's Best NHL Center Performers is offered for consideration by fantasy hockey owners and players. Gold Joe Thornton (San Jose Sharks): Thornton and the Sharks (sounds like a song?) have been on a tear since the trade deadline with the NHL's best won-loss record. Thornton has been one of the major factors in the rise of the Sharks to winning the Pacific Division title. In this last week, Thornton scored five goals and added an assist in San Jose's three games for two points-a-game...

Gold Brad Boyes (St.Louis Blues): Boyes averaged two points a game for this past week. He scored two goals and one assist against Detroit with one becoming the game-winning goal in the Motor city.

• NHL Sleaze Replaces Politics (Published)

  This is the time of the season when a chapter of the NHL Sleaze Channel comes to light to liven things up. This should not have major impact for fantasy owners, as the players mentioned below will not have violated any NHL rules that will remove them from playing currently, as far as has been announced. Ignore the fact that playoff races are in full swing in both Conferences, with playoff berths changing slots with each night's game results. Ignore the fact that one of the NHL's outstanding...

  The regular NHL season is winding down to its most critical stage, and in this Fantasy Minute, recaps of Sunday's action and developments will help fans keep abreast of the developments for the playoff spot races. Martin Biron (Philadelphia Flyers - Goal): At the time that the Flyers need him the most, Biron cast off the funk he has been in of late, and won his last two games. Against the Rangers, who the Flyers trail in the playoff hunt in the Eastern Conference, Biron stopped 23 of the 26 shots...

• NHL Buy 'n Sell (3/23)

  It is getting a little tougher and tighter each week to find new names that need to be bought or sold for NHL fantasy Buy 'n Sell. Never fear however, names are there to be dealt with again this week. They are as follow: Buy Ales Hemsky (Edmonton Oilers - Right Wing): Hemsky has just completed a great week for the Oilers, scoring two goals and six assists in the Oilers last five games. He has averaged just under a point-per-game over the season for the Oilers and ranks at 19th in the NHL this...

• NHL Top Weekly Performances - Centers

  Time is getting extremely short on the NHL wait for the final playoff berth slotting. The Eastern Conference teams change places daily. The Western Conference, while not seeming as volatile as the East, is just as intriguing waiting to see the initial match ups in this year's version of the Stanley Cup Playoffs. This week's Best NHL Center Performers list is as follows. Gold Evgeni Malkin (Pittsburgh Penguins): Malkin struck for Penguin gold again this week. He might well be looking at the...

• NHL Top Weekly Performances - Right Wings

  Watch out! Here come the NHL Weekly Best Right Wing Performers for this past week! Gold Jason Pominville (Buffalo Sabres): One of the few consistent shining lights for the team that keeps flirting with needing life support, Pominville had a stellar week for the Sabres. In the only two games they had scheduled, which has also was a contributing factor that allowed them to lose ground in the playoff spot battle in the NHL's Eastern Conference; Pominville averaged over two points-per-game. He scored... Posted Mar 23 2008, 08:26 PM by hduckwall with | with no comments Filed under: hduckwall, Pominville, NHL Fantasy Hockey, NHL Weekly Best Right Wing Performers, Doan, Hemsky, Sykora

• My Fantasy Hockey Religion ?

  Without trying to become trite, the correlation for me between the NHL, fantasy hockey and organized religion is intriguing. Many references could be made between either myself or certain NHL clubs trying to gain playoff slots that could be referenced to the Resurrection in this holy season! Arenas across the continent are filled with worshippers that are seeking salvation from the disciples serving within. Many are the voices crying and rising to the heavens for divine help on their respective power...

• NHL Fantasy Minute (3/17)

  This weekend's fantasy minute relates to the fact that some NHL teams are pushing ahead towards solidifying their playoff standing, whereas some other teams cannot make any headway and put away the teams that are chasing them (ALA Philadelphia and Boston). Also, fantasy hockey might be entering some fantasy chapters of a different mode! Chris Pronger (Anaheim Ducks - Defense ): Pronger received an eight game suspension for stomping on Vancouver's Ryan Kesler's leg last week. Of course...

• NHL Top Weekly Performances - Right Wings

  As we near the end of the NHL regular season, some names crop up on the weekly best performers lists as regulars, or like good, rare cheese. Then again, there comes a new entry into the dairy case. Gold Jerome Iginla (Calgary Flames): If anyone ever doubted or wondered how Jerome Iginla was selected as Calgary's Captain, one only needs to look at this week's results to see his value. For the week, Calgary had three games scheduled. In them all Iginla did was to score four goals and add three...

• NHL Top Weekly Performances - Centers

  This week's Top Performers for NHL Centermen have some of the same old names on it, but is lead by one newbie to the list. What this translates into is that if the same players dominate the list for weeks, then they have to be the players in their positions having the best year! Gold Jeff Halpern (Tampa Bay): This past week, Tampa played four games. If other, bigger name players had more weeks for Tampa similar to Halpern's, they might be in the thick of the playoff race. For the week, Halpern... Posted Mar 16 2008, 06:18 PM by hduckwall with | with no comments Filed under: hduckwall, Malkin, Roy, Spezza, NHL Fantasy Hockey, NHL Weekly Best Center Performers, Halpern

• NHL Buy 'n Sell (3/16)

  This week's version of NHL Buy 'n Sell consists of one team Captain, two relative unknown commodities, one budding young superstar, one goalie, and a Czech in the proverbial pear tree ! Buy Johan Franzen (Detroit Red Wings - Center/Left Wing): Franzen should be available to buy in most leagues still. He has had a terrific week. One of the reasons is his power play time, due to other red Wing injuries. As long as Tomas Holmstrom is out with a groin ailment for the remainder of the season,...
