PuckCast w/ Statsman and AJ -- Week 8 Review

PuckCast w/ Statsman and AJ -- Week 8 Review

This article is part of our Fantasy Hockey Puckcast series.

Paul "Statsman" Bruno and AJ Scholz go around the league to discuss the hottest/coldest players on each team and the latest injury news.

Anaheim Ducks -- Finally some offensive life from this team with Rickard Rakell and Isac Lundestrom putting up big numbers last week. 

Buffalo Sabres -- Another dismal week with no offense or defense could spell the end of the Jack Eichel era in the Queen City. 

Carolina Hurricanes -- James Reimer and Alex Nedeljkovic have become basically interchangeable at this point, in a good way as the team racked up four wins. 

Colorado Avalanche -- Without Nathan MacKinnon, the Avs have experimented with moving Mikko Rantanen to center.

Edmonton Oilers -- Over the last week, the Oilers fielded the worst offense in the NHL at 1.33 goals/gm but there are signs of life from Connor McDavid

Pittsburgh Penguins -- Kasperi Kapanen garnered three goals and three assists in a breakout week after Paul blasted him last week. 

Vegas Golden Knights -- Injuries to Mark Stone and Alex Pietrangelo could ruin what's been a fantastic run of form in the desert.
