This season our scouting department will be giving an update prior to the start of each game week to give you all the information you need to get your team top of the standings.
Roster Moves
Just the one new signing this week but he has made an impact already with two goals for the Manchester Storm, including a game winning overtime goal. Dante Hannoun is Manchester’s third team of the season already having iced in Slovakia and Denmark, where he scored five goals in nine games. Prior to this he has played in Italy, including for the national team. He is added in at 6.5M while he should get some good opportunities for the Storm.
Who’s Hot?
As week 12 is complete we have another value adjustment for the top 10 players in scoring over the last six weeks. Here are the players and their new values –
| Player | Team | Value | Score |
| Jordan Kawaguchi | Belfast Giants | 10.0M | 179 points |
| Ben Bowns | Cardiff Devils | 9.5M | 174 points |
| Cole Sanford | Cardiff Devils | 10.0M | 151 points |
| Mike Lee | Belfast Giants | 9.0M | 147 points |
| Dominic Cormier | Sheffield Steelers | 8.5M | 147 points |
| Nicholas Welsh | Manchester Storm | 8.0M | 142 points |
| Mitchell Balmas | Sheffield Steelers | 11.0M | 137 points |
| Kohen Olischefski | Cardiff Devils | 8.0M | 137 points |
| Nicolas Guay | Belfast Giants | 8.5M | 136 points |
| Brady Gilmour | Manchester Storm | 7.0M | 133 points |
Our pick of week 12 was Nick Welsh who gave us a solid 23 points to take our average to 25.6 points on the year.
For week 13 everyone the teams to highlight are Cardiff and Dundee who have two home games, but we are going to pick a Panthers player while they have three games in the week, albeit all are away. Scoring wise they don’t have anyone in our top ten scorers we have just seen, but Chase Pearson had 42 points last week so we will go with him.
Current average points per week so far – 25.6 points.

Upcoming Schedule
Week 13 brings us a standard 10 game week as we head towards the busy Christmas period but we do have some teams to try and favour as Manchester play just the one game, while Nottingham have a three game Scottish road trip. Dundee and Cardiff also play twice at home.
We start the week on Friday night with two fixtures. Glasgow Clan host Nottingham Panthers a week after the latter’s six goal win at the Motorpoint Arena. It is also a dress rehearsal for the Challenge Cup elimination game later this month. In Manchester, Belfast Giants are the Storm’s visitors.
The Giants continue their fortnight without home ice as they move on to Cardiff on Saturday night, the second meeting between the teams at the Vindico Arena this season. Fife, Week 12’s form side with two overtime wins to break their long run without victory, head to Guildford for the day’s early start. Sheffield and Coventry meet again but with the roles reversed, while Dundee host Nottingham.
It is a home double header weekend for the Stars, who welcome Sheffield Steelers to Tayside on Sunday. Cardiff, home for consecutive nights, have Glasgow visiting. Nottingham make the trip up to Fife, while Coventry end the week on home ice against Guildford.
