Same faces, new places | NHL offseason report

2021-22 NHL Season Preview: Fantasy Sleepers and Undervalued Players
Below are a few undervalued fantasy hockey targets in the 2021-2022 season for your NHL drafts. You could call these players sleepers if you want, but it’s hard to call a former 38-goal scorer a sleeper, so I went with the term undervalued.

The NHL’s Central Division was around during the shortened 2021 season, but the alignment has reverted back to the 2019-20 format with the addition of Arizona as the eighth team.
