Saturday fantasy hockey tips - NHL picks, matchups, more
Fantasy hockey friends, we're now forced to pay some real attention to the dreaded 'r' factor. After accomplishing all they can in capturing the President's Trophy and home-ice advantage from mid-April onward, outside of carving out fresh records for accumulated points, Boston can do no better. Which means some players — including some of your most precious fantasy faves — will start resting with greater frequency. Taking games off.
