I've been ask this for years! Goalies should be able to gather fan points or even have extra point categories it just makes sense. For o e of the best websites to use for fantasy hockey. Adding these options should be an easy fix. Commissioners should have the options to allow them.

Stop giving kick/punt returners negative points for fumbles when their positive yards and touchdowns are credited to the DST. It’s all or nothing. It just doesn’t make sense.
Please make an option to give individual players ALL (good and bad) special teams points, or NOTHING. -

An addition such as this one would be an awesome addition to Yahoo Hockey. FanTrax has this. I'm going to pitch FanTrax to my league next season, for multiple reasons, this one included.

Now its even in the Yahoo boxscore. Give us these stat categories. I would rather have too many to choose from than not enough

Also, allow for WIN to be more valuable than an OT wind, which is more valuable than a Shootout win.
ALSO allow for pts if a goalie loses in shootout or OT

I would trade Shutouts for Saves before that.

No. Just no. Why reward activity without achievement?

I think it would be a good idea in scoring to allow an option for points for wide receivers drawing pass interference calls. If I could I would make that worth 1 point in my league, as it's always disappointing when your star receiver is interfered with on a long pass and you don't get any points for that.

How is this still not a stat? Already have FW wins AND FW losses. Seems like a simple calculation of the two?

After-all you have 'Grand Slam' as a scoring category in Baseball. 'Hat Trick' (3 goals in the same game) is as important to Hockey! Thanks!!

This is an awesome idea. I'm dying for a player category to substitute for +/- and this would be perfect!

Your DEF/Special Teams should be able to receive points for recovery an onside kick

Adding primary assists will further spotlight the best playmakers in the league.
In the fantasy league I run and my previous experiences with yahoo fantasy hockey, it is currently very goal-centric, and it would be nice to add a focus on legitimate top playmakers such as Blake Wheeler and Mitch Marner as possible top players for a fantasy player to pick as thier best player rather than year in and out going with top goal scorers. Adding in primary assists will further highlight more players with playmaking skills leading directly to goals to create a new archtype of player in fantasy hockey other than point scorer and goal scorer.

Really would just like #8 from OP.
For PPR, have a ability to differentiate the PPR amount between RB's, WR's, and TE's, example: Receptions RB= .5, Receptions WR= 1, Receptions TE= 1.5

Hey Andrew, my name is Wes and I agree with your post. Let's get into the meat and potatoes...hits isn't being recorded as accurately anymore. I've seen a player like P.Hornqvist hit someone 5 times in a shift and yahoo count for 1 and I've seen P.Bergeron breathe on someone without the puck and watch his stat category gain +1 hit. In the NHL, giveaways and takeaways represent skill. Look at basketball, turnovers is a very key category. Yahoo needs to pride itself on adaptability and providing the best platform for fantasy success. In dynasty leagues where people pay a lot of money, build teams, and potentially lose friendships, change/diversity of stat categories is imperative. Player categories could use a modern "lift" and I think the implementation of at least turnovers would really change the face of many leagues who are in "ruts." Thank you.

Honestly these two stats are incredibly important metrics to evaluate players in real life so I think it would translate very well to fantasy. It doesn’t make sense to reward players by adding PIMs as a category (unless it’s counted negatively) when these two stats are ignored. Please change for next year!!

Agree that goalie stats should be captured. Would be best if they tallied into your team's Scoring stats instead of them being their own unique categories. Rewards goalies who play the puck but doesn't make the goalie categories too lopsided.
