I've done a league with punters before. It was the stupidest thing I'd ever seen. It had all those ideas and there was absolutely no rhyme or reason to it.
If you want to try a league with punters, set one up on ESPN.

They should have their own categories in category leagues if you want, goalies have very few categories available to them, these two seem pretty obvious, goalie goals and goalie assists next year please

Goals & Assists should count and not just for Points Only league, any league which has Goals, Assists, Points or Even PIMs should include Goalies numbers for those stats/categories.

This is my favorite idea out of everything I've seen here. You could get points for long punts and punts inside 20 and lose points for blocked punts and touchbacks.

This would be a good option to have, though I am with the group that would not like any field goal to be worth less than 3.

Cool idea. Agree with everyone below... <30yds standard scoring but fractional points for >30yds.

I completely agree with this! Please vote for having hat trick points added as well because hat tricks are unique and should have some incentive when a player scores 3 goals in a game as it is an important moment for the player. Why shouldn't it be an important moment for fantasy owners as well?

I would like to add some additional incentive to owners that have a player who scores a hat trick. Currently, the scoring is just that 3 goals are 3 goals. Hat tricks are a unique thing that happens in hockey and it is special when it does happen. It would be nice to bring that into this game and be able to choose how many points it would be as a bonus for a player scoring a hat trick.

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.

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?
