Leeching off the Leafs (Kessel, Blake, Hagman, Grabovski, Ponikarovsky)
Leafs RW Phil Kessel no longer plays for the Bruins, but he and the suddenly potent Toronto offense visit Boston on Saturday night. The Maple Leafs have won four of their last five, scoring at least three goals in each of those wins, including a 6-3 waxing of the Blue Jackets in Columbus ...

With Ovechkin out, who scores? Survey says, Morrison and Fleischmann
Caps D Mike Green is money in the fantasy bank...when Ovechkin is on the ice. Since Capitals LW Alex Ovechkin (knee, behavior) missed six games between Nov. 1-17 with an upper body strain, we actually have a track record of who scores for the Caps in his absence. Better still: Two of ...

Why does no one own Jean-Sebastien Giguere?
Why is this man only owned in 8.5 percent of ESPN leagues and 27 percent of Yahoo! leagues? Need help with goaltending stats? Despite his track record and pedigree, Ducks G Jean-Sebastien Giguere — who won his third straight Friday night, shutting out the Blackhawks 3-0 in Anaheim ...

Is Marc-Andre Bergeron worth adding?
Bergeron scored 14 goals with the Wild last season, but he failed to impress in other categories. If there’s one game on Wednesday’s schedule I’m watching for fantasy purposes, it’s Montreal’s visit to Pittsburgh at 7:30 pm EST . The focus of my attention is ...

Monday night recap (Bergeron, Kuba, White)
Bruins C Patrice Bergeron (four assists Monday night) clearly relishes the return of teammate Marc Savard. Here’s a recap of the three biggest fantasy developments from Monday night’s action: 1. Bruins C Patrice Bergeron tallied four assists (two on the PP, one shorthanded) ...

Time to (reluctantly) add Maxim Afinogenov
Afinogenov is no longer with the Sabres, but his crap-tastic Buffalo seasons explain his low ownership. After his one-goal, one-assist, +2 performance in Thursday’s 4-3 shootout loss to the Bruins , Thrashers RW Maxim Afinogenov has jumped to the forefront of fantasy hockey watch ...

Three to watch for Thursday (Predators vs. Devils editon: Sullivan, Legwand, Bergfors)
Predators forward Steve Sullivan -- always a threat for a 35-goal season if healthy -- is on fire. Every Thursday, the Genius will list three players to monitor for fantasy relevance. As a rule, the players will be owned in fewer than 50 percent of Yahoo! and ESPN leagues. Player: ...

Steve Mason is the Matt Ryan of fantasy hockey
Does this man remind you of a certain Atlanta Falcons QB? Blue Jackets G Mathieu Garon (3-1-0, 2.60, .923) is getting the start tonight as Columbus hosts Edmonton at 7:00 pm EST. It begs the question: What is a fantasy owner to do with supplanted starter G Steve Mason (pictured left, ...

Time to drop Wideman and Lidstrom?
Time to drop Wideman and Lidstrom?
fantasyhockeygenius.wordpress.com — Bruins D Dennis Wideman is a gifted offensive player, but for fantasy purposes there's little risk in... dropping him. In his first 13 games, Red Wings D Nicklas Lidstrom scored only three points (one goal, two assists). In his next four games, ... (more) Time to drop Wideman and Lidstrom?
Three to watch for Thursday (Greene, Bertuzzi, Bergeron)
What's not to love about the statistical upside of Red Wings LW/RW Todd Bertuzzi? Every Thursday, the Genius will list three players to monitor for fantasy relevance. As a rule, the players will be owned in fewer than 50 percent of Yahoo! and ESPN leagues. Player: D Andy Greene , ...

It’s Torres Time
Blue Jackets LW Raffi Torres is an ideal spot-starter for Wednesday night's games. The Blue Jackets host the Red Wings on Wednesday night, and I’m recommending a spot-start for Jackets LW Raffi Torres . Here’s why: 1. He’s hot. He has four goals in his last four games ...

The O’Reilly Factor
There are 13 games on the NHL platter today. Our advice is to pick up a young man who isn’t playing in one of them. Avalanche C Ryan O’Reilly — an 18-year-old rookie — ranks second on the team with 14 points (four goals, 10 assists). He is also +13. He is tied for the ...

Three to watch for Thursday (Hamrlik, Umberger, Stoll)
Canadiens D Roman Hamrlik should continue his hot play at Boston tonight. Every Thursday, the Genius will list three players to monitor for fantasy relevance. As a rule, the players will be owned in fewer than 50 percent of Yahoo! and ESPN leagues. Player: D Roman Hamrlik, Canadiens. ...
