Hidden Gems: 8 Atlantic Division Players to Watch | with Louis Boulet

The Hidden Gems series is back.

Blake is joined by friend of the show Louis Boulet of LB-Hockey to dig into eight Atlantic Division players who may not be obvious fantasy draft targets right now, but absolutely deserve to be on your radar.

We break down what the underlying data says, where the opportunity could come from, and what would need to happen for each player to become genuinely fantasy relevant.

This episode features:

Oliver Kapanen — MTL
Marco Kasper — DET
JJ Peterka — BOS
Jordan Spence — OTT
Dominic James — TBL
Josh Doan — BUF
Brad Marchand — FLA
Jack Roslovic — TOR

From Kapanen’s potential fit with Ivan Demidov, to Kasper’s rebound case, Peterka’s move to Boston, Spence’s hidden offensive ceiling, Dominic James’ transition numbers, Josh Doan’s chaos game, Marchand continuing to defy Father Time, and Roslovic potentially landing beside Auston Matthews — there is a lot bubbling under the surface in the Atlantic.

These aren’t necessarily sleepers. They’re players of interest — names to keep on your watchlist before the rest of your league catches up.

The 2026-27 Apples & Ginos Fantasy Hockey Draft Guide is also available now, featuring 230 pages of team previews, projections, sleepers, injury analysis, draft strategy and more.

And there’s still time to join the APL before the season gets underway.

Let’s get to BIZ.
