  1. I'm loving the new life in the Fantasy hockey section!!!! You have given that thing CPR and brought it to life. Amazing job.

  2. Well at Bleacher Report we try to focus our writers on their strongest topic. Your a fantastic writer, and I think you'd be strong suited handling fantasy work. It would be even easier going than say my work here. For example my stuff is mostly Ducks oriented, i can do whatever, but for simplicity only handle the Ducks. For you though, you can take any situation and analyze it for the Fantasy writers.

    Mostly what id like to see is you discuss off season moves and gain credibility with the NHL community, many of us will be playing fantasy hockey and youll become our main source. Furthermore, i think if the Fantasy section develops right, come the season you could make the fantasy hockey section one of the most viewed on BR.

    All we need from you is great consistent writing, which i dont think should be a problem at all. Just write whatever comes to mind concerning your ideas on the fantasy hockey world, and then make sure the article has both NHL fantasy hockey and NHL tags. If all goes well, id like to make you our fantasy hockey community leader come fall. But we will see. If you have any questions shoot me a line.

    I look forward to reading more of your stuff, and thanks for looking over my Schneider article, it met some criticism from Kings fans but oh well.

  3. Hey Joe, if your really into the Fantasy hockey spectrum, i was going to talk to you and see if you were interested in spearheading the Fantasy Hockey section. If all goes well we'll see about getting you named the Fantasy Hockey CL, as you have a great mind, just need to become more comfortable on BR, as your still very new. Anyway, let me know what you think. Great second article, its going to be one hell of a third season.

  4. Hey Joe (Great last name, take a look at my profile if you have a chance),

    My name is M MacDonald Hall, and I'm the Calgary Flames Community Leader. I just read your first article and your profile, and they look good.

    Any tips on getting into fantasy hockey? Different from a regular hockey pool?

    Thanks for your time and your article. Insightful analysis for fantasy drafts = insightful analysis for average hockey fans. Keep it up!
