Today's Shuffle Up comes to you from the blue line; it's defensemen only, amigos. Goalies dropped last week, forwards arrive next week. If you have an issue with this schedule, please consult with Carl Racki in customer service.
The ranking below is the way I'd attack the position if facing a new draft right this second. What's already happened is an audition, not a mandate. Consider basic Yahoo! league scoring parameters (goals, assists, power-play points, PIMs, shots on goal) as you navigate along.
Your respectful

When it comes to fantasy netminders, environment is a gigantic part of the equation. An ordinary goalie can turn into roto gold if the right defense is protecting him, while a rock-solid puck stopper sometimes has his fantasy value torpedoed by a sketchy defense.
For most of Jimmy Howard's professional life, he's had a cushy setup. He's not going to enjoy that in 2013. Detroit's blue line is a mess right now.
When Howard inherited the gig for the 2009-10 season, the Red Wings were overflowing with quality defensemen. Nicklas Lidstrom and Brian Rafalski were

Time for Phase 2 of our Fantasy Hockey 2013 reranks, the Blue Line Shuffle. Normal rules apply: your respectful disagreement is welcome, but make sure you provide sound reasoning to go along with it. Win the debate, win the rank. We're all in this together. Commentary will be added later tonight, and a few ranks might be tweaked as the night goes along.
Players were considered in these stat categories: goals, assists, shots on goal, plus-minus, power-play goals and assists, penalty minutes. And as always, job security and injury concerns are part of the

The Stanley Cup playoffs are finally here so let us breakdown the first round of the Western Conference.
Vancouver Canucks (1) vs. Los Angeles Kings (8)
The Canucks won their second straight President’s Trophy, finishing as the top team in the NHL this season. However, this year, the team did it with a more balanced attack as their top offensive players saw dramatic decreases in their scoring totals.
The prize for finishing first overall is a series against a goalie that has a strong chance of winning the Vezina trophy. Jonathan Quick posted 35 wins, 10 shutouts and a very low 1.95 GAA. Vancouver will need scoring from

And with the calendar turned to October, the eyes of the multi-sport rotohead now turn to … ice hockey.
A collection of 12 suspects (some the old usuals, some newcomers) gathered on Thursday for the fifth annual Yahoo! Friends & Family League draft. We laughed, we mocked, we shed blood, we broke up a fight or two. And when the smoke cleared and the horn sounded, 240 players were selected, covering various talent levels.
Draft reviews mean different things to different people. Perhaps you'll learn something from our hits and misses (and comments to that end), or maybe you'll be in the middle of a glorious nap before you finish this piece. That's up to you. We'd like to know which teams you like the most, in
