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?

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.

If the NHL doesn't count it as official stats then Yahoo! shouldn't either

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.

I think a good way to even the scales between a good NFL defence and a good 'fantasy' defence would be to allow the commissioner to asign a point total to wins for a defence. So if you have the Seahawks Def, and the Seahawks win, you would get ten points for that. It can be frustrating when the best NFL defences don't score as high as mediocre defences in fantasy because mediocre defences allow more scores, so they get more opportunities at return yards and td's. By giving a point value to wins, it raises a good NFL defence's fantasy value, as their team is more likely to win.

keep anything less than 30 yds at 3pts; then fractional per yards all the way up

Completely agreed...same for points allowed on defense...the ranges are limiting and useless, that's why I don't currently use K or DEF in my league.

I've been wanting this for YEARS, as has my entire league. Every other player gets fractional points, and there should be a distinction between a 30 yd FG vs a 39yd FG. In that example, they are nowhere near equal.

I hope this happens. If you have a fractional for regular players..there should be for kickers too.

I fully agree with this idea. it provides a more uniform scoring based on the length of the kick. prevents a 19yd FG from equaling a 39yd FG.

P K is right. The commissioner can change the values of field goals per ten yards... but I do like the fact of allowing fractional points. A 15 yard field goal should only be worth 1.5 points... not 2 or 3.
