Rosters - Position eligibility requests 2025-26
Position eligibility requests for the 2025-26 season.
We will continue evaluating players for new positions going forward and make updates where appropriate.
Full list of updated players for the 25/26 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 who 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

Nino Niederreiter has been playing RW since he was traded and is currently only LW eligible.

Roope Hintz, C/RW. Positionally plays right wing in the defensive and neutral zone, not just off of draws he doesn’t take.

Aleksander Barkov (C) has seen 0 faceoffs since February 20th. Eetu Luostarinen (C,LW) has taken the center spot. Barkov needs winger eligibility.

Can you explain the logic on the Tampa Bay Lighting's top line position eligibility? Steven Stamkos lines up at center for faceoffs and plays the wing giving him C,LW eligibility. Line mate Brayden Point lines up on the wing and plays center but ONLY has Centre eligibility. Logically this makes no sense and puts Point owners at a gross disadvantage. Fix up Yahoo.

Point has to receive RW eligibility, the stats and actual gameplay back it up.
