Below is a list of my favorite fantasy hockey targets for the 2021 NHL season. There’s a theme here with most of these players and if you’ve been following my hockey work you already know. I target shooters and scorers early and often. I also like players who touch a lot of categories. I call […]

The offseason in the NHL was the shortest and most unique in quite some time, especially at the goalie position.
