  4. 5 Fantasy Hockey Sell-High Candidates You Should Shop Now

    Season 1, Episode 730

    Show notes

    Blake is back with five fantasy hockey players whose value may be peaking right now.

    Mark Stone, Seth Jones, Vasily Podkolzin, Jack Quinn and Artturi Lehkonen are all producing — but that doesn’t necessarily mean you should just sit back and enjoy the ride.

    We dig into the underlying numbers, deployment, power-play usage and sustainability behind each player’s hot start, then look at the kinds of players you might be able to target in a deal.

    Selling high doesn’t mean selling bad players. It means recognizing when perceived value may be running ahead of expected value and seeing if you can make your roster just a little bit better.

    No panic moves. No wholesale changes. Just stacking small wins wherever we can.

  8. 5 Fantasy Hockey Buy Lows to Trade For NOW

    Season 1, Episode 726

    Show notes

    The fantasy hockey season is still young, which means slow starts can create some major buying opportunities.

    Blake breaks down 5 players he’s actively trying to buy low on right now: Adrian Kempe, Lucas Raymond, Gabriel Vilardi, Wyatt Johnston and Brayden Point.

    We’re looking past the box scores at deployment, power-play usage, shooting efficiency, underlying metrics and team environment to figure out which struggling players are poised to turn things around.

    Blake also gives potential trade examples for each player so you can start sending offers before the buy-low window closes.

    It’s time to take advantage of some nervous fantasy managers. Let’s get to BIZ!

    Show notes

    The final ADP Battle of draft season is here, and we brought in the FINAL BOSS.

    Matt Larkin of Daily Faceoff joins Blake to debate some of the toughest decisions on the Yahoo draft board using standard category scoring.

    We battle:

    ⚔️ Evan Bouchard vs Zach Werenski
    ⚔️ Cole Caufield vs Cutter Gauthier
    ⚔️ Leo Carlsson vs Aleksander Barkov
    ⚔️ Adam Fantilli vs Dylan Cozens
    ⚔️ Brandon Bussi vs Spencer Knight — Zero G Round
    ⚔️ Zeev Buium vs Zayne Parekh — Sleeper Round

    We break down projections, deployment, power-play opportunity, peripherals, breakout potential and where we'd actually make the pick.

    One last battle before puck drop.

    Let the battle BEGIN. Let's get to BIZ!
