On Part 1 of this week's Keeping Karlsson Fantasy Hockey Podcast mega-show, Elan and Brian gather and analyze the latest fantasy hockey news, notes and data. They cover all the latest player streaks, slumps, injuries, outjuries, line changes from around the NHL, and turn it into actionable advice for how you can keep your fantasy hockey team in tip top shape. They ask and answer: Is Alex Barkov (not) playing himself out of first round pick status? Has Bobrovsky earned back the Florida crease? Do you need to pause the pod to add Brandon Hagel? Can Cole Perfetti respond to opportunity knocking? Has Sam Steel done enough to establish himself on the top line? How good is Mikko Rantanen, and who can he bring with him? ..and more! Have you joined the Keeping Karlsson Ultimate Patron Fantasy League? It's the biggest and best fantasy hockey league in the world!
