Rosters - Position eligibility requests 2024-25

Position eligibility requests for the 2024-25 season.

We will continue evaluating players for new positions going forward and make updates where appropriate.

Full list of updated players for the 23/24 season: https://hockey.fantasysports.yahoo.com/hockey/playerchanges?type=pos

As of 10/4/23, we added the option for Commissioners to award position eligibility to players that haven't earned it by Yahoo Fantasy's standards yet. Keep in mind, this tool will only allow commissioners to add positions, not edit or remove them and you won't be able to assign Forwards or Defensemen with Goalie eligibility and vice versa. Commissioners can add new positions using the steps here: https://help.yahoo.com/kb/position-eligibility-fantasy-hockey-sln7057.html

    - Byfield has been Kopitar's LW since January (come on, half a season plus this pre-season...)
    - Zegras is now also LW
    - Samoskevich has been LW all preseason long and that's where he'll start with the Panthers

    Ehlers LW/RW
    Tavares C/LW
    Monahan C/RW

  • Trevor Lusby commented  ·   ·  Report

    Requesting Kevin Fiala to be given RW/LW status. He’s played both wings in pre season and last year

  • Daniel Festa commented  ·   ·  Report

    Arturri lehkonen switches between lw and rw on colorado’s second line with Valeri Nichushkin (who is lw/rw on fantasy).

    Arturri lehkonen to receive rw eligibility.

  • Daniel Festa commented  ·   ·  Report

    Chandler Stephenson has played RW on various occasions and was eligible to play C,LW,RW last year on yahoo. Stephen to get RW added.

  • Daniel Festa commented  ·   ·  Report

    Buchnevich has played LW and RW in the past and also has LW/RW eligibility on Fantrax

  • Barry Rennie commented  ·   ·  Report

    Let’s get it corrected please the season is about to start. Thanks

  • Adrian Iovan commented  ·   ·  Report

    The position eligibility should be updated by yourselves instead of putting it in the hands of commissioners.

    Luckily I’m in a group of good people, but I can easily see that being problematic in leagues with shady commissioners.

    It’s not even a bandaid solution if it can potentially cause more harm than good and IMO quite lazy in comparison to other fantasy platforms.

  • Adrian Iovan commented  ·   ·  Report

    Tavares is C/LW on Fantrax and has played LW for the Leafs in the past
    Ehlers has played LW and RW for the Jets and has LW/RW eligibility on Fantrax
    Buchnevich has played LW and RW in the past and also has LW/RW eligibility on Fantrax
    Monahan is being utilized on 1st line RW in Montreal and 1st PP C. so should receive RW eligibility

  • Gregory N Foster commented  ·   ·  Report

    Gabriel Vilardi on Winnipeg should be a C,RW as he's played the majority of his career on the wing including last season. Right now he is just listed as a C.

  • Scott GRIFFITH commented  ·   ·  Report

    Leafs have put W. Nylander at Center for the foreseeable future

  • Anthony Piscitelli commented  ·   ·  Report

    Byfield has been playing LW since January and seems posed to start the season as a winger.

  • Carter commented  ·   ·  Report

    R. Rakell is playing LW with Crosby/Rust.
    G. Villardi is playing RW with Connor/Schiefele.
    J. Marchessault is playing LW with Eichel/Barbashev.

  • Grahame Lippert commented  ·   ·  Report

    Please look at adding RW eligibility for Sammy Blais. He played both LW and RW plenty last season and is playing the Right side in preseason. Thanks

  • Daniel Robinson commented  ·   ·  Report

    Player position eligibility should be dynamic and not cumulative. On Yahoo, on our fantasy team roster page under Research->Depth Chart is a listing of the player's current position and it is surprisingly and consistently accurate. Yahoo should simply use *that* to determine a player's position and not ever allow dual or triple eligibility. Eliminate dual/triple eligibility permanently, that's what I'd do.

    Our League Keeprs deadline is this coming Sunday. We need the positions of ALL players repaired by then. Please, and thank you.

  • John Godber commented  ·   ·  Report

    All you guys have to do is copy and paste the positions that Fantrax has, they have it exactly right.
