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

Roope Hintz - C/RW
Pavelski actually takes most faceoffs. Hintz and Pavelski swap C/RW back and forth.

since you just fixed chandler stephenson a few days ago do roope hintz c/rw & tage thompson c/rw next. watch the entire games for both the stars and sabers, you’ll clearly see both players playing rw at least half of the game.

Evan Rodriguez is constantly playing C and should thus be granted eligibility at C

The fact driasiatl has taken like 400 faceoffs already this year and still gets wing eligibility and other guys who have taken half the draws he has can’t get it. Let’s get it together yahoo. Either takes his eligibility away or start giving it out to other players. Makes zero sense

Roope Hintz C/RW. Swapping out with Pavelski. Pavelski taking more draws actually. If he is C/RW then Hintz should be as well!
Thanks for receiving feedback from the community and updating the players.

Roope Hintz C/RW has been posted multiple times since the start of this season yet no change is made. Does anybody at Yahoo even review this page?

Huberdeau RW. Hughes LW. Hintz RW. Tage RW, maybe also LW.
Maybe keep on an eye on Patty Kane he's been playing some LW with Athanasiou and Domi shifting around. MorningPuck has his LW quite often but I don't watch Chicago too much.
Reinhart played 2 games LW, not sure if thats enough to qualify.

Hello, this player is listed as a center and should also have winger status. He plays on the same line as Joe Pavelski who takes the majority of the faceoffs. Pavelski is listed as C/W. I think Hintz should also be C/W.

Voting for support of Tage Thompson gaining eligibility on at least one of LW or RW since Jeff Skinner is taking faceoffs
