Eight Injury Prone Players for the 26-27 Fantasy Hockey Season

from Apples & Ginos Fantasy Hockey Podcast · host Apples & Ginos Fantasy Hockey

Ryan and Evan are on the mic for a deep dive into one of fantasy hockey’s trickiest questions: are injuries actually predictable, or are we just building narratives after the fact?They break down the difference between chronic injury concerns and plain bad luck, how much weight fantasy managers should put on recent games played, and why IR+ can completely change the value equation by allowing you to replace injured production from the waiver wire.Then they put the theory to the test with some of fantasy hockey’s biggest injury-risk names, including Jack Hughes, Jack Eichel, Auston Matthews, Leon Draisaitl, Mark Stone, Matthew Tkachuk, Shea Theodore and Dylan Holloway. Which players have legitimate recurring concerns? Which injury histories are mostly a collection of unrelated events? And where is the market potentially discounting players too heavily because of the “injury-prone” label?It’s data, history and risk — with the injury narrative put under the microscope.
