Fantasy Hockey 2025-26 Monday Mock Draft #4: Drafting The Best Available Player | Does It Work?

Two hosts run a mock draft focused on best-available value, weighing a bold early goalie pick against a stacked forward core. Matthews appears as a late-first-round value, Hellebuyck anchors a zero-G strategy, and the duo pairs Eichel, Nylander, and Robertson with high-upside wingers. They highlight dual-eligibility plays, Montreal’s young back-end, and Philly/Carolina pivot points, while outlining signup details for listener leagues and the September windows to enter.

Which four players from the mock draft most influence your overall roster strategy this season?In a 12-team standard league, which sleeper should you target in the late rounds to complement the core above?How do you approach zero-G versus balanced-goaltending in this mock, given Hellebuyck’s selection?Which team-building concept from this mock most benefits a new fantasy GM?
