A certain competing fantasy sports company has this stat that will add a set value of fantasy points to a goal or assist a defenseman registers. This helps my league add value to defense and avoid stacking on forwards.
Please I want to switch my league to Yahoo. Our keeper league is too dedicated to having that category to be able to switch without it.

This is a must please add FACEOFF % is a very important stat that I fully support.

Scott Schneider commented
Please, please, please, add Faceoff % as a stat!! We don't want to have to use 2 separate stats to count it (FOW & FOL), because that essentially makes it twice as valuable as it would be if it's combined into one stat (and twice as important as any stat that is only covered by one category). We have been waiting for years and years for this improvement, and we're still waiting!! Faceoff % is a very important stat! Other fantasy hosts (ESPN for example) offer it! It's just not important enough to take up two categories.... PLEASE fix it! (we love Yahoo fantasy, except for this glaring oversight)

There should be an option in the beginning of a fantasy league scoring settings to allow goalies who lost a game in overtime or shootout to have a point.

I agree. Goalies collect assists all the time and the very rare goal. There should be a category for this.
Thanks!

some categories should be worth more! The reward for a penalty should not be the same as a goal... or at least that should be a choice that is available

david guay commented
Have the choice to determine that a stat category is worth 1 or 2 points. Could add significance to goals and assists for example, and stil track other stats for points. So in a league that uses 8 stats, if 2 are weighted to 2 points, then the point total would be 10 per week.

Leave it the same. There are other "negative" categories to choose from like +/-, etc... No change

Niklas Kronwall's goals against average will make or break the week for just as many teams.

Topic title says it all. Goalie assists have to count in scoring. Something like Jimmy Howard's shorthanded assist is a difference maker in category pools.

Can you please fix the goalie goals against point system. Right now goalies are being rewarded more points for letting in more goals....Example, Rangers lose 10-1 and Lundqvist is in net, he let in 10 goals therefore he received 10 pts for the night. The opposing goalie let in 1 goal and he gets 1 point. Doesnt make sense at all, please fix asap!

Add a category for hat tricks.

@Yahoo please add ATOI as a category. At this point it looks like pure stubborness. Don't be made because ESPN did it first. Eat the humble pie and make your website better for your customers...

Hat tricks should be a scoring category. so should OT goals as well.

Please add more goalie category such as "Shootout / OT losses"! I did an ESPN league last year and there were so many more categories. I've ran my fantasy hockey league on yahoo for a decade now, the addition of a few more categories before draft season would make the experience on yahoo the best there is !

So I guess the team determined to *not* add new categories?
