Weekly Schedule
Games per team for the week of 2017-12-16. Highlighted columns = off-nights (<8 games league-wide — max streamer leverage). B2B = back-to-backs; Opp GF/GA = how much the week's opponents score / give up per game (high Opp GA = soft schedule); red pattern badges (3in4, 5in7…) = compressed stretches that drain legs and force backup goalies, green light = rest-heavy week. Green plays a light night, orange a busy one, grey is dark. Click GP, Light or Busy to rank on any of them.
❓ How to read this
Fantasy weeks are won on volume: more games, more off-nights, softer opponents.
- Off-night
- A date with few NHL games — your streamed player fills an empty roster slot instead of benching someone.
- Opp GF / GA
- How much this week's opponents score and allow per game. High Opp GA = soft goaltending ahead = start your skaters.
- 3in4 / 5in7
- Compressed stretches — tired legs, backup goalies. Red = grind; green light = rested week.
- B2B
- Back-to-back sets — the second night usually means the backup goalie starts.
