Scoring - New Scoring Categories
Requests to add new scoring categories in Yahoo Fantasy Hockey.

Add Overtime Goals as a scoring category instead of GWG.
GWG is so random, with many of them falling on a, say 4th goal of a blowout that the other team scores a couple late when no one cares anymore... Whereas, OTGWG is a much more accurate depiction of the players scoring actual game winning goals.
They say 75% of OT games end before the Shootout, and games make it to OT all the time now. This gives the star players another level of separation, as they are often the ones out on the ice scoring the goals. -

Two Scoring Category Requests:
- Game Deciding Goals
- Fighting Majors -

I like the idea of adding bonus points for a hat trick to the goals category or have the value escalate. The second goal in a game for a player could be worth two points, the third, three points and so on.
I would also like to be able to add bonus points for a shutout to goalie wins instead of it being a separate category. More numbers, more statistical significance. -

Allow a shootout goals category and allow goalies to be part of goals scored AND assists category.

It would be cool to be able to assign categories to positions. As commissioner, I could assign hits or blocks only to defensemen if I liked, or only credit faceoff wins to centers. Another option is to allow the ability to assign scoring categories to specific lineup slots. I could create 6 Forward slots instead of 2C. 2RW and 2LW then I could assign faceoff wins to only two of those forward slots. This eliminates the arguments over C and W designations as players only collect stats based on where a manager puts them in the lineup.

Some leagues offer a "Special Teams Points" option that lumps powerplay and shorthanded points into one category. I think that would be a nice feature.

In Scoring Settings, for Forwards/Defensemen, there should be an option for a hat trick (3 goals). In my previous leagues, we always had a bonus +2 for a hat trick. It's a pretty common thing in hockey fantasy.

Please add goalie goals + assists, the rarity of it deserves to be rewarded and celebrated, thanks

make Time On Ice (TOI) a scoring category. It wound make some players that aren't very offensive more valuable

5v5/ES goals/points are the most valuable form of production in hockey! Would make for a fantastic add.
As would primary points which are a strong performance indicator as well

In football, there is a bonus option for 'x' points awarded for 'x' number of yards ran/thrown. Can this possibly be added for hockey please? This way we can have a "hattrick bonus" at the very least.

We should have Primary and Secondary Assist points!
We need Defensive Scoring options too!

There should be an option to apply different points for Overtime Game Winning Goals and Empty Net Goals.
Clearly, a goal that is scored in Overtime is more important than a Game Winning Goal, that was the 3rd goal, in a 7-2 win.
GWG, PPG and SHG are optional for more points than an EVG. So why not ENG and OT GWGs? -

Goalies are players too. Statistically, they can log Goals, Assists, Points and Penalty Minutes. This should be added to scoring settings!

Similar to PP and SH goals, assists, and points... Add the same option for commissioners to assign points for OT goals, assists, and points in league scoring settings.

Brandon Sz commented
Goalies get goalies and assists. Provide the option for commissioners to add goaltender points for these.

Faceoff Percentage would be a great addition.
We have used Faceoffs Won and Faceoffs Lost in my roto league for years, but it would be great to replace them with FO%.
