    For some reason Yahoo got rid of this feature about 10 years ago. PLEASE! BRING IT BACK!!

    I like this idea, particularly for the finals.

    Two-week playoff is fine but NOT the last two weeks of the season. I won last year on a tiebreaker and lost this year on a tiebreaker. In each case a team's best players were NOT on the ice

    Every other fantasy pool I've used has options for 2 week playoff matchups. Yahoo fantasy hockey is almost perfect except the playoff matchups. There's already so much luck in fantasy pools, playing all year just to come down to 1 week playoff matchups is ridiculous in my opinion. At least with 2 week matchups there's less chance of getting screwed by nhl schedules. I've talked to so many people in different pools that complain about this on your site. The keeping Karlsson podcast complains about it as well and they have thousands of listeners playing on your site. Please add this option so I don't have to move our fantasy pool, I'm tired of hearing complaints about this from everyone. Thank you

    2 week final for sure. Yahoo forced a couple of my leagues during covid with that weird flames regular season game when the playoffs already started. I loved the double week in the final

    I say do away with byes. There is nothing like a darkhorse taking down a 1st place team.

    This would make Yahoo Fantasy Hockey even better, two week playoffs needed ASAP and without the two last weeks that every contender doesn't put the star players on the ice.

    Allow for customizable playoff options, including:

    A) the number of teams that make playoffs (even or odd number, allow for byes or no byes)
    B) a consolation bracket, even for leagues that allow 8 playoff teams (remaining four teams consolation bracket, as it currently doesn’t allow you to do so in a 12 team format with 8 making playoffs)
    C) one or two week playoff matchup options allowed to be customized for each playoff round individually (quarters, semis and finals).
    D) any of the above or any other customizable playoff options

    Two week playoffs would be crucial to have. Will this be coming for next season?

    I would love the ability to choose per round of playoffs how many weeks you want. Example: quarters 1, semis 1, finals 2.

    We switched from ESPN this year, but will go back next year if there is not the option of having 2 week long playoff matches. You can get stuck with players who only play 1 or 2 games during the most important weeks of the year. Please fix this!

    If this doesn't get added in 2021 - we're out. been running keeper league since 2006. No reason this is not yet an option.

  • Blair Courchene commented  ·   ·  Report

    Yea. This NEEDS to be updated. Been asking for this for years. Fantrax, ESPN both allow custom playoff.

    When I set playoff schedule on Yahoo it gives me an option of about 6-8 different weeks to use. Why can't I merge those weeks into rounds. 8 team league could run 3 rounds of 2 week playoffs.

    Especially with this year, we had teams that just got dinged by covid/opponent having covid so their schedule was whacked and while they were the best team all year, they are out in the semi's because of one week playoff - 18 games less played than opponent. 2 week matchups needed.

  • Blair Courchene commented  ·   ·  Report

    Time to add customized playoff schedules. If I am able to select a 8 team playoff from 6 different weeks, why can we not then have 2 week playoff rounds. Rd 1 - Week 1-2, Rd 2 - Wk 3-4, Rd 3 Wk 5-6.

  • Jeff Andrews commented  ·   ·  Report

    we should have the option of two week matchups for both the regular season and playoffs because the NHL schedule is so irregular that some teams enter a one week matchup with an inherent insurmountable advantage. Two week matchups in both regular season and playoffs helps smooth that out
