November 25th – Fantasy Hockey Goalie Rankings
An usually busy Monday because of American Thanksgiving gives us nine games tonight. Pittsburgh @ Boston should be a great game, St. Louis takes on Minnesota in a tough Western Conference battle and I’m interested to see how the Oilers take on the Blackhawks while riding a three game winning streak.
