And we're finally reached the end of my rankings with my Top 200 list. I will have my ten bold predictions on Monday before the season starts on Tuesday. If you have any specific questions, let me know in the comments section. And with that, the top 200!
My thoughts over the years on goaltending haven't changed, so I'm going to use a similar introduction that I've used in the past.
We’re onto the last position in my rankings, the netminders. Goalies make a huge difference in fantasy hockey, but they also have the most variability from year to year. There’s only a handful of goalies that we can consistently count on every season to finish in the top ten, and that floor is why they are ranked as high as they are. Because of their unpredictability, I’m very unlikely to take a goalie in the first four rounds, especially in head to head leagues. Even if your league reaches for goalies early, don’t panic. Last season, I was extremely high on Greaves and was able to get him as my G3 everywhere. He finished as the #7 goalie overall. I had Blackwood as G5 and with his early injury, suggested partnering him with Wedgewood, who hilariously ended up as the #1 goalie. Meanwhile, top ranked goalies such as Hellebuyck and Bobrovsky massively disappointed, and they were far from the only ones. Patience is key for drafting goalies. I’m going to separate all of the goalies into tiers, so let’s get to it!
If you missed the Top 20 post, you can check that out here. The plan is for my goaltending post to come out on Monday, with my Top 200 post coming out in the middle of next week so you have it for your drafts next weekend. That said, between all of the individual posts, you should be able to put it together and get close to a Top 200. If you want to get some early goaltending thoughts, you can look at MarmosDad's thoughts here. And with that, let's get to the Top 40!
We move onto blueliners now, starting with the top 20 defenseman for fantasy hockey. I'd argue this is the best overall group of defensemen since I've been writing for Razzball over a decade ago. This is surely going to be a long post, so let's get to it!
We wrap up my forward rankings with the rest of the Top 100. If you missed the Top 80, you can find that here. My plan is to start the defensemen rankings this week, if not go through all of the top 40. I will try to get through goaltending and all of my Top 200 by the middle of next week. As always, feel free to ask any questions, leave any comments, or give any suggestions below.
We continue through my forward rankings today with players ranked 61-80. If you missed the Top 60, you can check that out here. MarmosDad had his first post in the middle of the week, which you can check out here. If you have any comments, suggestions, or questions, let me know in the comments section below. Let’s get to it!
We continue through my forward rankings today with players ranked 41-60. If you missed the Top 40, you can check that out here. MarmosDad will be back in the middle of the week, and I will have 61-80 later in the week. If you have any comments, suggestions, or questions, let me know in the comments section below. Let's get to it!
This is one of the longest posts of all the rankings posts, especially this season where I have more defensemen in the Top 20 overall than ever before. I'll just say that I will have 41-60 up by the end of the week, and if you have any questions, comments, or suggestions, let me know. Let's get to it!
If you didn't see my Top 10, in which I really like the top of the draft and really only love nine players, you can check that out here. Today, I'm going to continue through players ranked 11-20. As a reminder, this will be my last post before I move to positional rankings, starting with forwards. That will come early next week. And with that, let's get to it!
And we're off! Today, we start our journey through my rankings with the Top 10 overall. For those of you that are new to these parts, my rankings focus on the offensive categories, namely goals, assists, shots, and special teams points. I assume that your league uses either hits or penalty minutes, but not both. Banger leagues could use this as a baseline and make the obvious adjustments. I will note those extreme cases in the writeups, along with those who always have elite plus-minuses that we can count on.
It's that time of the year again! I'm back again to cover all things fantasy hockey here at Razzball. Today, I simply wanted to touch base and let everyone know that I'm back and what the schedule is going to look like in preseason. Additionally, MarmosDad will be back to help me out once again, which I'm thrilled about. On top of him doing a great job, it's nice to have some continuity with a second writer for once.
I hope everyone is enjoying the NHL playoffs so far! I missed having this stress watching the Sabres in the playoffs, and experiencing game one in person was something I'll never forget given the amazing comeback. Anyways, I wanted to quickly talk about a handful of things that I want to watch over the summer before I call it a season. I'd like to thank all of the loyal Razzballers who read my posts throughout the season, especially those who asked questions or gave feedback. Hopefully the majority of you won your championships and will be back here so I can help your title defense. With that, let's get to it!
