This weekend I published the 2026 updates to the Best Puck Manifesto: In it, I reviewed: 📜what has (and hasn't) worked over the last three seasons of Best Puck 🆕how the 2026-27 changes to the contest (18 rounds! more scoring!) should change our strategy 🔗⤵️ 1/4

For the Moods' Dudes: I put together my thoughts on today's three game NHL DFS slate, featuring my top players from each game, a team-by-team writeup, and Best Bets at the end. You can read it here ($): moods.beehiiv.com/p/friday-t…

Agreed. A dollar of cap space is worth the same in every market. Florida's tax break belongs to the player, not the team. What surprises me is how nobody talks about the RCA. Canadian teams can put part of a player's salary into a Retirement Compensation Arrangement. Once he retires outside Canada, he withdraws it at roughly 25%. Net result: the same tax as "no tax" Florida, sometimes less. And far less than New York, Massachusetts or California. But sure, keep calling Canada a tax nightmare. #WeAreGoldStar!
The flaw in equating Kucherov’s Florida after-tax earnings to a $20M Montreal salary is that it treats Florida’s tax advantage as justification for Tampa paying him less. That tax advantage is a player benefit and not a discount Tampa is entitled to capture.

Great article from Cory. Reading this puts into perspective how serious Seth's shoulder was for the last two to three seasons. It also baffles me that in 225 games Seth had 200 points, 97 of which were goals, WITH that shoulder. 👀👀👀 40 goals and 80+ points incoming?
Seth Jarvis looks like his normal, elite self since returning from shoulder surgery. A look at what the Hurricanes’ right wing played through, the surgery, his rehab and how he's feeling with five games under his belt. nsjonline.com/article/2026/1…

gonna need a NSFW section if this "four points from a depth contributor" trend continues... nitter.gq/ABaumgartner91/status/…
Narratives for tonight's NHL slate. #Preds dad's trip and a couple of depth players with revenge games.

change of plans, no solo pod (sorry @saulgoodmanDFS) as DK has blessed us with the slate nice and early.

I reviewed last night's NHL DFS slate on DraftKings, one of the slates of all time. I walk through the slate, talk a bit about my decision process in my own (losing) lineups, and review the winners along with the field's play on Tuesday night! 📰moods.beehiiv.com/p/here-com…

now that i've taken a look at DJ's tier list: MOVE UP: STL, COL, CAR - I'm confident STL and CAR will work on the ice, not so sure about COL MOVE DOWN: SJ, TB, UTA - UTA is the letter U? nah. TB/SJ just uninspired nonsense FIRE INTO THE SUN: FLA - these are so bad on the ice
I’ve come to my conclusion on the HomeTown Remix Jerseys: I like a lot of them. Where am I wrong?

it should surprise no one that the heavens opened upon Broward county last night. The gods should always punish such cowardice. They tried to run back the blue fun-in-the-sun jerseys and completely failed. nitter.gq/JessicaDobsonWX/status…
This is the power of water. We're still grasping the extent of the flood damage in Brevard County this morning as floodwaters slowly recede in some spots. Leaving scenes like this, where Port Malabar Blvd has washed and crumbled away in Palm Bay. Photo courtesy: Tobin Taylor

Over the past 10 seasons, 106 players have scored 10+ goals in their team’s first 16 games. Michkov ranks 105th out of 106 in ATOI among those players. The avg ATOI for those players was 19:41. The median ATOI for those players was 19:38. For the curious, #106 is Andrew Mangiapane on the 2021-22 Flames.

Bonkers stat for you. Since the league started tracking hits in 2005-06, Michael Brandsegg-Nygård is the first NHL player to have 69+ hits and 10+ points in his first 15 games of a season.

Not every low percentage shot is low percentage. Cutter receives this pass on a 5v3 (1) and realizes Johansson is simply not selling out at all to stop his shot (2). So he immediately reloads to the point and takes the shot upon receiving the pass (3). Wide open goal.

alternate headline: No shot is a low percentage shot when shooting on Jonas Johansson. But this was really cool to see in real time.
