Show notes
On this episode of the Keeping Karlsson Fantasy Hockey Podcast, Elan and Brian make some difficult calls on cutting or keeping players with light schedules in the near future, including all Canadian teams, the New York Islanders and the Seattle Kraken. We share our decision-making guidelines for how to know whether it's worth holding or moving on someone when you're not getting games from them, and also cover the latest shuffles and shimmies across NHL depth charts, including: Has Noah Dobson earned a full on PP1 role? Which Toronto third-wheeler is most likely to be worth your while long-term? Are we seeing a return to form for Patrik Laine? Who are players with emerging value in Boston and Nashville? What in the world is going on with David Pastrnak? ..and more! And then, after the episode, stick around for a special bonus feature, where Elan is joined by Short Shifts's Ben Burnett, plus Fantasy Hockey Life's Victor Nuño and Jesse Severe, to take part in a draft where they're only allowed to pick players who are <50% rostered on Fantrax. Head over to the Fantasy Hockey Life feed to hear Part 2 of the draft. And, if you're the type who loves spoilers, see the draft results and follow the live scoring from the draft through the rest of the season at keepingkarlsson.com/draft.
