Fantasy Hockey Life | EP 125 | Arizona Coyotes

Louis Pannone from the Hockey Writers stops by to talk about the Arizona Coyotes. Oh, those Arizona Coyotes. On the bright side, Conor Garland and Jakub Chychrun had stellar, breakout seasons while ironman Phil Kessel kept on keepin on. On the flipside, the young core does not seem to be coming together the way Coyotes (or fantasy) fans want. Clayton Keller, Christian Dvorak, Christian Fischer, and Nick Schmaltz are rounding into their mid-20s and short of expectations. Add that to a disappointing season from Darcy…

We talk about the relative value of Heiskanen and Klingberg and multicat sneaky stars in Lindell and…

Fantasy Hockey Life | EP 123 | New York Rangers with Ben Burnett

Longtime friend of the show Ben Burnett joins Jesse and Victor to talk about the New York Rangers. We talk about the underappreciated pack of fantasy stars on the team. With even more young players like Lafreniere, Kappo, Miller, Kravtsov, and Lundkvist still on the rise, the Rangers seem like they have good times ahead. Unless Rangers management does something crazy, that is....but what are the odds? In the dig, Victor talks about a couple of hot prospects still on the way. Follow on twitter @victornuno12…

Fantasy Hockey Life Ep. 122 Sharks with Lizz Child

In episode 122, Lizz Child from The Hockey Writers joins Jesse and Victor to discuss and preview the San Jose Sharks. It was not a great year, especially for an aging, expensive blue line. Still, there are reasons for optimism with a great year from fantasy star Evander Kane and some hope for a rising prospect system. The Dig considers that prospect system and possibilities for the 2021 draft. Subscribe, rate us 5 stars and review us on Apple Podcasts or anywhere else.
