Last year, the Fantasy Guide was updated 41 times and the Draft List 37 times. Get update notifications on X and Bluesky (@DobberHockey).

“After reading this Guide, your understanding of fantasy hockey will dramatically improve—more than with any other resource. From managing expectations and timing your picks to evaluating player timelines and underlying drivers, Dobber’s got you covered.”
This is the only online fantasy service backed by 21 years of acclaimed Fantasy Hockey Guides. Dobber has contributed to dozens of newsstand magazines for over 25 years, including The Hockey News (fantasy writer for 12 years with over 900 articles) and the Hockey Forecaster. He has been building player projections for over 30 years—starting as a project in his fourth-year Statistics degree course at the University of Guelph.
Tired of preseason magazines that cut off after their Top 500? Dobber always gives you at least 850! That league-mate who drafted a sleeper completely off your radar? They got that name and projection from Dobber, while you were stuck using a competitor who stopped at 500.
In the 2025-26 Fantasy Guide, 255 player projections were accurate within five points. That marks THIRTEEN consecutive seasons of delivering more than 250 player point projections accurate within five points.
Between release day and the second day of the regular season, the Guide and Draft List are combined-updated more than 70 times—sometimes two or three times a single day! Updates are 100% free; simply re-download your files to access the latest data. Line combinations, projections, injuries, and training camp cuts are updated up-to-the-hour so you never draft with stale news.
For 16 years, Dobber has dedicated a custom section to advanced team statistics. Learn how coaches deploy their players and what it means for your fantasy squad. Includes 5-on-5 save percentage (S%), zone deployment, coaching tendencies, and Corsi-Rel analysis—presented clearly for the everyday player without bogging you down in heavy math.
Where is the rest of the fantasy hockey industry? While other sites shut down their content every summer, DobberHockey is still there for you with rankings, analysis, and breaking news. A fresh daily Ramblings column has been published every single day for over 20 years—without missing Christmas! Do you really want to put your fate in the hands of seasonal sites that vanish during the off-season and reappear just in time to take your money?
YOUR SECRET WEAPON. DobberHockey is dedicated exclusively to fantasy hockey. For multi-sport outlets, hockey is an afterthought behind football. Do you want multi-sport generalists giving you hockey advice? Furthermore, traditional newsstand magazines rely on beat reporters who write about real-life hockey all year—do they play in fantasy leagues? Hell no. DobberHockey is powered by a team of over 40 fantasy hockey fanatics providing insights 24/7.
Also included in this Guide:
Remember: A good guide is more than just raw projections—it’s about finding the hidden gems before anyone else does.

“Dobber, just writing to say Thank You for all of the draft guides I’ve used over the years. I’ve been in a no-money Yahoo fantasy league with some high school friends for 20 years now. We have fun with it, there’s a Canadian family in the league (2 brothers, 1 father) who get really pissed when I take them to the woodshed every year. Anyway, been getting your guides for well over a decade, just thought I’d say thanks and much appreciated.”

Ive won my league 5 years running. This is the best in the industry in my opinion. Always love the insight and reasoning for potential outcomes that just doesn’t come with the competitors.
Keep up the great work!
Really too early to tell…
In the last years I have won several thousands of dollars in a local pool, using your very useful spreadsheet, it has been especially efficient in the goals categories, your predictions are reliable and consistent each year ! Thanks a lot and keep predicting !
