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

    Robby Fabbri playing as a RW all the time and still listed as a C only. Tage Thompsos came back and played two matches on thw wing and you updated a RW position for him immediately. It just doesn't make any sense.

  • Dilsher Randhawa commented  ·   ·  Report

    Mcdavid has played more time on RW then he has on C, even in his recent games he still spends enough 5on5 time on Draisaitls wing that I think he should be eligible to get RW.

    Thanks.

  • Burt Maclin commented  ·   ·  Report

    Please add RW eligibility for Tage Thompson. He is playing RW on the first line for the Sabres.

  • Andrew Welch commented  ·   ·  Report

    Point should be dual eligible considering how Yahoo typically denotes many players like him who share draws with others (i.e., Giroux, Benn, Seguin, Duchene, etc.). For consistency, Point should have a wing eligibility.

  • Jarno Mäkilä commented  ·   ·  Report

    Add LW eligibility for Cole Perfetti. He has played already 19 games as LW and he is NOT a center.

    Please fix it ASAP as this is clearly wrong.

    Our league commisioner will not do nothing to change these so we need actual changes from Yahoo.

  • Jarno Mäkilä commented  ·   ·  Report

    Add LW eligibility for Cole Perfetti. He has played 19 games already as LW on so basically WHOLE season but still listed WRONGLY as C.

    He plays as LW on Winnipeg 2nd line and has played there whole season.

  • Ryan J. DeLaurentis commented  ·   ·  Report

    Can you please add W eligibility for COLE PERFETTI on the Winnipeg Jets.
    He is listed as a C, barely takes faceoffs, and is listed on most depth charts as a winger.

    Add RW to Jake Neighbours (STL) who is playing RW on the top line

  • Harri Heikkinen commented  ·   ·  Report

    Robby Fabbri listed as a C, has played most of the time on the right wing.

  • Janne Alila commented  ·   ·  Report

    Jake Neighbours (STL) is playing RW on the top line, listed as LW

  • Jim Piasecki commented  ·   ·  Report

    Barzal (NYI), outside of the last couple games, has played LW the majority of the season.

  • Brandon Saunders commented  ·   ·  Report

    there have been no updates since November 9th will multiple requests to update eligibility. If the team has then listed as a winger, they should be a winger.

  • Brandon Saunders commented  ·   ·  Report

    Connor zary still C, never played C at all. Has always been LW. When people pay money for their leagues and there is a money prize involved this is beyond ridiculous. Yahoo is completely incompetent at this point

  • Mitch McLauchlin commented  ·   ·  Report

    not sure how you guys ever gave Huberdeau or Verhaeghe C, have never played there or taken draws before but lets get to the additions:

    Owen Tippet, RW, has played LW all year long and last year
    Gustav Nyquist, LW, has played RW most of the year
    Erik Haula, LW, has played C all year, look at the Faceoff Wins
    Martin Pospisil, C, has played RW since coming up
    JT Compher, LW/RW, has played C most of the year, look at the Faceoff Wins
    Trevor Moore, LW, has played RW most of the year
    Jamie Benn, LW, splits time at C, look at all the Faceoff Wins
    Trevor Zegras, C, plays LW every time Carlsson is in the lineup
    Jason Zucker, LW, has been flipflopping between LW and RW all year
    Connor Zary, C, has played LW since coming up
    Philipp Kurashev, C, has been playing on Bedards RW since coming back
    Tyler Johnson, C, needs either Wing, he flips around the lineup
    Juraj Slafkovsky, LW, has been playing RW for weeks
    Alex Newhook, C, has been playing LW with Suzuki for weeks
    Mathieu Joseph, RW, has played the LW of Tarasenko almost all year
    Paul Cotter, C, has played LW most of the year
    Cole Perfetti, C, has been playing LW most of the year
    Nik Ehlers, LW, has played the right side most of the year

    That should get you guys started, happy to do this monthly for you since no one in Yahoo seems to be looking at this. Cheers

  • P C commented  ·   ·  Report

    Cotter and Perfetti are playing LW while Tanev, Duclair and Slafkovsky are playing RW. Please fix, thanks.

  • Chuck Vegas commented  ·   ·  Report

    Mathieu Joseph RW - Has played all 15 games this year on LW.

  • Matt Rossi commented  ·   ·  Report

    Trevor Moore is supposed to also have RW. Yahoo even stated it on 8/17 but was never updated. Please take a look and update.

    Updated positions to include RW eligibility
    8/17, 3:46 AM

  • Brandon Smith commented  ·   ·  Report

    Kurashev needs Lw or RW eligibility, hes not playing center
