Can you please add OT Loss to Goalies? My pool uses this stat to award points

Add a scoring category for a hat trick so you can give bonus points for it. Yahoo needs more scoring categories like ESPN

At least give us the option to run it as a negative stat.

I suppose there is no chance of getting this implemented prior to October 12? Guess it's another year in ESPN...

100% correct. I use Yahoo for every other league, but have to keep our hockey league in ESPN because they won't add ATOI which is already being tracked. Infuriating!

Please add Overtime Goals as a statistic option. It is a stat that is tracked by the NHL - results for last season can be viewed here:
OT Goals are the truest form of a game winning goal, and is the ultimate exemplification of a "clutch" player.

If short handed points "should" be worth more, then logically shouldn't powerplay points be worth less?
They've combined them into a category called "Points"

My league argues whether or not Short Handed Points are worth an entire category, yet they should be worth more than 5v5 points. By combining PPP and SHP into one category we could find some middle ground on this issue, and the stat would be easy to create on Yahoo's end.

You already track it... each players ATOI can be viewed in the player pool. It's a great stat category to have to add value to good players, especially good D-men. Considering moving my league to ESPN because I know they have it.

This seems so pointless. How is this the 2nd ranked topic?!!

The big one I am getting at is a composite goalie wins category (W + OTL) have 2 points for a win, and 1 point for a overtime loss or shootout loss. Its so frustrating watching your goalie go the distance only to lose in a 6 round shootout.
Other stats which would be nice: goalie scoring stats contributing to the regular scoring categories, Defensive scoring bonus, even strength stats (G/A/P/Shutouts/etc.), primary assists (or a composite cat).

Hi, I would also like to see face-off percentage as a category or face-off plus/minus. Thank you.

DubbleC commented
Hi, I would also like to have shootout goals as a separate category. Thank you.

Please add FO = FW - FL as a scoring category in head-to-head leagues. This is an important statistic, as it indicates how many net possessions a player gains for his team on faceoffs.
Using only FW as a scoring category is insufficient, as it tells only half the story. Likewise, using faceoff win percentage as a scoring category is not ideal, since it is skewed by non-centers who may take only one or two faceoffs per game.

What is the purpose of having a player in the penalty box creating positive stats, when he is making his team play short handed?

Combine them as a category. You're the only platform left without this option.

One of the main things that differentiates defenseman from forwards is the amount of TOI that they put in. To make this work as a category it couldn't be cumulative for the whole week- rather you would take the top 10 (or top x amount) TOI performances from one team vs the top 10 (or x) TOI appearances of their opponent and add them against each other to decide the winner of the cat for the week (for H2H).
This would keep it from getting devalued through something like streaming or a weak schedule and I think it would be a way to add more value to time-eating defenseman that many people have been looking to do without the double-counting of the stats for forwards since the forwards with little exception aren't going to give the highest TOI performances over Defensive players in most lineups. -

A viable option. Next to the percent value I would still like to see the very valuable numbers of the actual won/total numbers my players got in sort of a grey kind of like they do with TOI so ie-
FO% 79 150/190
And some sort of minimum FO's to be taken that can be set by commissioners so a guy who flukes with 10/11 can't win the category without really competing in it. -

Still "gathering feedback" over 2 years later? Let me help: people want this! I would love to have this along with the faceoff won/lost stats, and I think it makes perfect sense. If we have shots against, saves, and save % for goalies, we can add faceoff %.
