I haven't noticed shootout GWGs being awarded. If it isn't, it should be.

shootout goals are included as regular goals for the skater, and doesn't count against goaltender stats. sounds pretty fair to me.

Michael LaRue commented
This would be a fantastic addition.

As I am reading the opening post what you are saying is that if a DST gives up 500 yds they should be REWARDED with 10 points? I think not. Try again.

The stats on punters are easily available already. So, they should be easy enough to add.
I'd expect some value for length of punt plus some value for punts inside the 20 and some subtraction for blocked punts. -

no, and you're a moron. why not count the all-star game stats? that is a BIG part of the game and needs to be included, right? and the exhibition games, too. Those absolutely MUST be included.

What they need to have is this: 0-30 yrd FG = 3 fpts. and then .1 pt for every yard thereafter. For example a 45 yrd FG = 4.5 fpts. In addition, why in the world does Yahoo NOT have a fantasy point category for a 60yrd+ FG?????? they have everything up to 50. Kickers do sometimes kick a 60 yarder.....

Agree with AT. With all the problems with the new interface you're complaining about shootout stats? Know how to pick your battles.

I've played in a fractional point league for 7 years now and I've never liked that kicker is the one position not to use fractional points...especially when it makes so much sense! A 38 yard kick should be worth more 3.8 points. It's just that logical.
I also think game winning field goals should have the option for a 1 or 2 point bonus.

A few more of the categories - maybe shootout statistics or some of the advanced stat categories would be nice to diversify. Right now many of the categories are redundant.

It should be offered to let leagues decide. Every time I see a shoot out the NHL spouts off the percentages - so someone is keeping stats. I think it would add a good dynamic to Fantasy Hockey.

Can we please get Hattricks added as a scoring category?
-
Peter commented
I disagree with this. I feel if a league wants it then they should be available, however I don't think this should be the default.

The only problem with real time stats is they are wildly inaccurate. I agree we should add them as an option, but maybe a note should be appended about their inaccuracy.

I agree with your special teams points. However takeaways, like hits and blocked shots are notorious for home cooking manipulation.

Cool idea!

If the NHL doesn't count it as official stats then Yahoo! shouldn't either
-
Mike L. commented
Agreed. If you have a stat provider, let them know there are players who would like to see this in their league; the NHL keeps tabs of it so it shouldn't be too difficult. If you provide your stats, then please add this.
