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

He's a LW on NHL.com and every other hockey reference page. Please add LW so I can keep him!

Please add RW eligibility to Claude Giroux. He’s been playing RW since his trade to Florida Panthers. Both nhl.com and daily faceoff confirm he is RW.

Malkin update for winger position?

Matthew Novak commented
Malkin needs to be classified as a winger, not a center.

When is Elias pettersson getting C, W? He goes back and forth from wing to center yet you have him just as center. ESPN app has it correct. Come on yahoo

Danny Najm commented
Elias Pettersson is currently playing on the Left Wing and he should have his position updated to C, LW as he is not a strictly Center anymore. Everyone is waiting on this.

Elias pettersson needs W added. He has it on ESPN app and I'm getting annoyed with Yahoo not correcting this. He doesn't start games at center at all now. Wrap it up

Matthew Hunt commented
Adam Lowry WPG has been at LW for the past 5 games. I hope he gets LW eligibility at some point...

Tyler Pennington commented
Elias Pettersson has been lining up as a left winger with J.T. Miller as the C and Brock Boeser on RW going back to last year, but he doesn't have any winger eligibility. There are nights where Pettersson doesn't take any faceoffs, yet he's locked as a C while Miller has eligibility at all three forward positions. This needs to be addressed.

Leon Draisaitl should only be C. The guy is putting up over 10+ Draws a game. Makes 0 Sense. Might as well make Mcdavid C,W then.
