    You have written another excellent article that will certainly help others in their attempts to do better in their fantasy hockey leagues. I appreciate all you have done to improve an already knowledgable online community. You offer a great insider's perspective with pertinent hockey news from various leagues that is immeasurable. I foresee a very bright future for you in the hockey industry.

    Your recommendation of Kupari convinced me to do some further research on him which lead to me drafting him in the Comish Dynasty League. His fantasy hockey value will surely sky-rocket within the next few years.

    Thanks for your kind words, Nehithaw!

    I try to provide a little bit of something for everyone but it's difficult to do. In many leagues, guys like Kupari are not worth much of anything because he's not even playing in the AHL yet. But in deeper leagues, everyone is already familiar with guys like Kupari and Ylonen, and are looking for sleepers like Laaksonen perhaps. So finding a balance between different league types is not easy but I try to do my best, and I'm always happy to get feedback - positive or negative.

    Laaksonen is really intriguing. Nice late round sleeper potential right there. I first heard about him from Finnish prospects on twitter.... He's firmly planted on my radar
