Been a busy week as I was involved in another draft that I had to set up on a new site with the draft in motion. I got it done and the draft was a success so it was worth the aggravation. I hope to give you a rundown of that Dynasty league draft this weekend. Right now let's get caught up to date.
The 2018-2019 PrimePuck Fantasy Hockey Draft Guide has been updated through the signings of EDM D Darnell Nurse and BUF RW Sam Reinhart, injuries to VAN LW Loui Eriksson and OTT C Jean-Gabriel Pageau. Download the most recent Guide before your hockey draft.
Darnell Nurse and Sam Reinhart signed 2 year deals with their respective clubs as they headed into training camp and the pre-season games. Look for both players to be an integral part of their teams this season. Nurse may provide some offense with D Andrej Sekera out with a n injury while Sam Reinhart is counted on to breakout up in Buffalo.
New Montreal Canadien Max Domi took a page out of his father's book with a sucker punch on FLA D Aaron Ekblad. Fortunately Ekblad wasn't;t seriously injured, especially with his concussion history. Domi was suspended for the remainder of the pre-season, so in essence he got off light.
Veteran Vancouver LW Loui Eriksson is out week-to-week with a lower body injury. No reason for you to be concerned with Eriksson unless your draft is way deep, but if you're drafting Eriksson these days, I hope it's in like one of those senior leagues like they have in golf.
Carolina forward Victor Rask is out indefinitely with a wrist injury after having surgery. Rookie C Martin Necas should benefit with increased ice time.
Dallas rookie Ty Dellandrea signed a 3-year entry deal. Look for him to develop in the minors for a year or two.
