How to Use the NHL Schedule Optimizer for Fantasy Hockey

Fantasy Hockey Streaming Strategy Tips:

  • Target 4+ Game Teams: Teams playing 4 or more games in a week provide the best streaming value
  • Monitor Off-Nights: Use the day distribution to identify when most teams play vs. off-nights with streaming opportunities
  • Plan Ahead: Check the 2-week and 4-week outlooks to plan your roster moves in advance
  • Yahoo Fantasy Compatible: Works with Yahoo Fantasy Hockey, ESPN, CBS Sports, and all fantasy platforms
  • Free Tool: No subscription required - all NHL schedule data is free to access
