2025 Fantasy Hockey OnlyFans: Goalie Sleepers
Last one. The OnlyFans series for the 2025 Fantasy Hockey season concludes with the goalie sleepers. You know my rule by now. If you are simply patient and wait it out, you’re going to strike gold later. This list is your guide on how to steal premium goalies for cheap while loading up the rest of your roster. I’ll defend this strategy til I die, and it never ever fails.
*To fully clarify this part, anyone outside the top 100 who is underranked is eligible for the OnlyFans list.*
*Link To ESPN’s 2025-26 Fantasy Hockey Rankings/Projections:
Jacob Markstrom (New Jersey Devils) G21, 152nd overall
It was a tale of two halves for Markstrom in his first year with the Devils. He had a .912 SV% before the All-Star break. Then the entire team collapsed in the injury department, and Markstrom went down with it, posting a .869. If Jersey simply stays healthy, they’re a playoff team. Markstrom is a reliable goalie and at this price, you can do far worse.
Lukas Dostal (Anaheim Ducks) G23, 174th overall
Dude was a total rockstar on a bad Ducks team. What if the Ducks surprise people this year? I think that could really be the case. Joel Quenneville should make a big difference. This guy has been putting up good numbers on a bad Ducks team. I think they could sneak in as a playoff team with the Pacific division down. The talent is there. If the Ducks actually improve around him? This is stealing.
Linus Ullmark (Ottawa Senators) G24, 184th overall
Dude is just a really good goalie. Posted a .909 last year, and the Senators are young/improving. It’s for sure his net in Ottawa. Dude was out here winning the Vezina in Boston and posted very good numbers in Buffalo. Ullmark is far better than the 24th overall goalie. Buy at this stupid cheap price.
Karel Vejmelka (Utah Mammouth) G30, 219th overall
This might be my favorite sleeper pick out of all of them. What if Utah is actually good? Are we sure that can’t happen? Heading into his age 29 season and Utah feels poised to take a big jump as a team. He used to stand on his head for the Coyotes. If they improve around him? Could wind up being a complete steal.
Pyotr Kochetkov (Carolina Hurricanes) Unranked
Freddie Andersen is going down at some point. We know this. If and when it happens, Kochetkov is in a great spot to snake a ton of points. 27 wins in 47 games last year. The wins should be there again. Posted a .911 two years ago. If that form returns, this is screaming value.
Jeremy Swayman (Boston Bruins) Unranked
Unranked? Seems harsh given what he did two years ago. The Bruins aren’t great anymore, but Swayman actually had a full training camp this time. His .892 SV% last year was a career worst mark by a while, and the contract stuff played a factor. Coming into this year, I love the bounceback spot.
Carter Hart – Unranked
Unfortunately, you can’t stash him on IR because he’s suspended. Can’t actually play until December. He’s going to sign with Vegas. Wait out the storm and laugh your way to wins when it’s actually his turn.
Jesper Wallstedt (Minnesota Wild) Unranked
TBD if the Wild are a playoff team again, but they’re young and Wallstedt fits that core they’re building around. Former high pick and takes over the backup role for Marc-Andre Fleury. Never know. It’s possible Filip Gustavsson takes a step back, and Wallstedt has a bigger role than anyone expects.
Akira Schmid (Vegas Golden Knights) Unranked
Kinda on par with the Hart section, except Schmid opens the season as the backup in Vegas. He’s clearly better than Ilya Samsonov, and the supporting cast here is awesome. The starts may not be there, but they will probably be efficient when he is out there in terms of collecting wins. Secretly… I’m not convinced Adin Hill is actually the better player.
