Week seven of the Fantasy Hockey season begins on Monday the 16th of November, 2015. This season seems to be flying by and it will be over before we know it. That's why we need to begin tidying up our rosters for our playoff push! Let's see what I found this week.
Teams having 4 games this week include the Arizona Coyotes, Calgary Flames, New York Rangers and the Toronto Maple Leafs.
The Boston Bruins and Montreal Canadians have two games this week and every other National Hockey League team has three games this week.

The Columbus Blue Jackets David Savard is available in just over 50 percent of all Major Fantasy Hockey leagues and even though his team has just 3 games this week he is a must add. Over his last 5 games Savard has 4 helpers and 11 shots on goal for a minus 8 skating nearly 24 minutes a night on the Blue Jackets first line of defense and playing the point on the Jackets first power play unit. Savard has 8 minutes in penalties this season with 31 hits and 22 blocks to his account and also could be a good add for this week.
