Fantasy Hockey Trends: Risers, Fallers, and Goalie Notes

A look at the latest trends in fantasy hockey, including goalie, power-play, and droppable notes, with a focus on rising and falling players.

It's been a minute since we checked in on the risers and fallers on the ESPN fantasy hockey rankings. The rankings are updated every Friday, but they don't offer space for discussion or analysis, so I like to use this space every so often to highlight some movement. In this case, our reference for the last check-in is Nov. 5. A reminder that the rankings are expectations for fantasy points in the standard game here on ESPN from the date of the rankings forward. No previous results are factored in aside from using those results to drive the projections forward.
