The DFO Fantasy Show is BACK for another season — and we’re kicking off Year 12 with our 2026-27 Fantasy Hockey Centre Preview!

Brock Seguin and Beebs break down the Top 10 fantasy hockey centres heading into draft season, including the battle between Connor McDavid and Nathan MacKinnon for No. 1, Macklin Celebrini’s incredible rise, Auston Matthews’ bounce-back potential, and whether Wyatt Johnston has officially entered the NHL’s elite fantasy tier.

The guys also debate some of the biggest questions at centre. Can Jack Hughes stay healthy enough to justify his early ADP? Is Tage Thompson one of the safest elite goal scorers available? Can Tim Stützle take another step with Ottawa? And after a 101-point season, is Nick Suzuki actually being drafted too early?

Then it’s time to go beyond the Top 10 with some of the most important names to know before your fantasy draft.

VALUE PICKS:

🏒 Tomas Hertl — coming off a season where the underlying numbers suggest he deserved significantly better results in Vegas

🏒 Dylan Cozens — a potential late-round category monster after posting 200+ shots AND 200+ hits last season

BREAKOUT PICKS:

🚀 Adam Fantilli — could a little better puck luck and an improved Columbus power play unlock a huge season?

🚀 Anton Frondell — the former No. 3 overall pick could have a massive opportunity in Chicago

ADPs TO AVOID:

⚠️ Nick Suzuki — an outstanding real-life player, but is his first-round fantasy price simply too expensive?

⚠️ Roope Hintz — declining opportunity in Dallas could make him a risky pick at his current ADP

Plus, Brock introduces True ADP, explains how the new DFO Fantasy rankings were built around the categories fantasy managers actually use, and previews the new Daily Faceoff Draft Kit and mock draft tools.

The fantasy hockey season is here. Get ready for your draft with the DFO Fantasy Show!
