Rosters - Roster limits for positions
This feature would allow commissioners to set the maximum and minimum number of players a team can roster at each position at a given time. For example, teams can have a maximum of 3 Goalies on their roster. Currently there is no way to set the maximum or minimum number of players a team can roster at each position.

Goalie hoarding is a huge issue in deep leagues. Our league has been arguing about it on the message board. We need position limits.

I'm in a league where we had a max of 4 goalies (not including IR/IR+) to limit hoarding, but not everyone liked it and it was annoying to police manually. Not that people cheated, but when you have new GMs they don't always remember unique rules like that.
I think you can also somewhat mitigate hoarding via other league settings, ie. change scoring categories to make goalies less valuable, and limit bench spots so people have to prioritize more and simply won't have room to stash backups.

A big problem in our league for many years has been the amount of goalies a team will "hoard."
A bunch of our managers have brought up how one team can have as many 5 or 6 goalies rostered at one time, while another may have just 1 healthy goalie.
Can you make a feature for next season where you can place a max limit on roster positions?
We would love to have say a max of 3 goalies on your active roster, so if a starter on another team gets hurt you will have to decide whether to drop your 3rd netminder in order to pick up the backup.
