It’s been more than a year now, that I’ve been writing this monthly piece on the trends and events of the American Hockey League. Few months go by where I don’t reference the league as being one of the best, if not THE best professional development league in the world. Now, obviously that is [...]
Welcome to the first ever Fantasy Hockey Prospects consensus ranking at DobberProspects. The way this worked was that each participating writer provided their personal top 50 ranking, and then average ranking was calculated based on those rankings.

Camp rosters for the World Juniors are starting to get released now. I've done my projections for Team Finland, Team Sweden and Team Russia over the past eight days. When doing those, I was flying a bit blind because camp rosters were not released at that time. This time, I know which players are [...]
Article has been updated on December 5th after the release of the final camp roster. It's December now which means the World Juniors are right around the corner! Over the past week, I've done my projections for Team Finland and Team Sweden, so now it's time for Team Russia. The Russian team is always [...]

Article has been updated on December 5th after the release of the final camp roster. The World Juniors are just three weeks away. Time to get excited! I released my projected Team Finland for the WJC a few days ago. This time, it's time to project Team Sweden. My Finnish team had 25 players but apparently [...]
