Nate and Blake dig into ten of the most surprising statistics from last season—and what each one could mean for fantasy hockey in 2026-27.Can the historically dominant Edmonton and Dallas power plays maintain their success? Is Colorado’s man advantage destined for a major bounceback? How did Pittsburgh go from projected lottery team to one of the NHL’s highest-scoring offences, and was any of it sustainable?The guys also examine a potential Los Angeles offensive turnaround, the teams most likely to regress from elevated shooting percentages and whether Ottawa’s strong defensive process could fuel a Linus Ullmark rebound.On the player side, they discuss Dylan Cozens’ elite post-Olympics chance creation, Auston Matthews’ underlying dominance, Logan Cooley’s 100-point potential and the remarkable numbers behind Matthew Schaefer’s historic rookie season.Ten shocking stats. Ten major questions. Plenty of implications for your next fantasy draft.

The 2026 Stanley Cup Playoffs may have changed the fantasy hockey outlook for a handful of players heading into next season.In this episode, Blake looks at the playoff performers who separated themselves from the pack — and what their postseason runs could mean for 2026-27 fantasy hockey drafts. Mitch Marner went nuclear in Vegas and may still be undervalued because of old playoff narratives. Brett Howden turned a bigger role into a monster goal-scoring run. Carolina’s second line of Jackson Blake, Taylor Hall, and Logan Stankoven looked like a legitimate weapon. Leo Carlsson flashed superstar upside. And Zach Benson may have played his way into a bigger role in Buffalo.Were these just playoff heaters, or did we get an early look at next year’s fantasy hockey values?Let's get to BIZ!🏒 Welcome to Apples and Ginos – Your Ultimate Fantasy Hockey Edge!Every week we dive deep into fantasy hockey insights, player analysis, waiver wire pickups, trade targets, lineup tips, and more to help you dominate your league.

Blake and Nate fire up the fantasy hockey trade machine for one of the more chaotic offseason episodes yet.In this one, we each bring four made-up NHL trades that could completely shake up the fantasy hockey landscape. Some are realistic, some are unhinged, and some would probably cause a full fanbase meltdown — but every deal comes back to the same question: who wins and who loses for fantasy?We dig into hypothetical deals involving Dylan Larkin to Boston, Jordan Kyrou to Columbus, Brady Tkachuk to San Jose, Simon Nemec to Philadelphia, Vincent Trocheck to Minnesota, Ross Colton to Toronto, Elias Pettersson to Seattle, and Jason Robertson to Anaheim.Would Larkin unlock another level for David Pastrnak? Could Brady Tkachuk be the perfect winger for Macklin Celebrini? Would Pettersson get a much-needed reset in Seattle? And what would Jason Robertson do to Anaheim’s already exciting young core?This is a fun one: fake trades, real fantasy fallout, and plenty of debate along the way.Let's get to BIZ!🏒 Welcome to Apples and Ginos – Your Ultimate Fantasy Hockey Edge!Every week we dive deep into fantasy hockey insights, player analysis, waiver wire pickups, trade targets, lineup tips, and more to help you dominate your league.

Some players don’t completely disappear — they just fall out of the fantasy hockey conversation.In this episode, Blake and Nate dig into a group of forgotten players who could still matter for fantasy in 2026-27. We look at what happened last season, why the hype faded, whether the underlying profile still gives us hope, and what fantasy managers should do with these names heading into next year’s drafts.Are they bounce-back candidates? Draft-day values? Formerly exciting names we need to let go of? Or players the fantasy community may be forgetting too soon?Players discussed include Matt Coronato, Adam Fox, Aleksander Barkov, Victor Hedman, Arseny Gritsyuk, Artyom Levnshunov, Mason McTavish and Jordan Kyrou.Perfect for managers already thinking about 2026-27 fantasy hockey rankings, sleepers, bounce backs, draft values, and potential buy-low targets.Let's get to BIZ!🏒 Welcome to Apples and Ginos – Your Ultimate Fantasy Hockey Edge!Every week we dive deep into fantasy hockey insights, player analysis, waiver wire pickups, trade targets, lineup tips, and more to help you dominate your league.

Was it more ice time? Better linemates? A new power-play role? Increased shot volume? Better team offense?
