    Default H2H points vs Cateogory setup

    I am looking to receive feedback on which setup is a more popular, fun, cometitive setup. Are H2H point setups better and overall more enjoyable or is H2H category more fun? I am not a fan of roto league so that is off the table in terms of conversations. Thanks for any feedback.

    Depending on what categories you choose, I prefer category H2H, because that forces you to build a more balanced team. My league uses a bunch of categories, including SHP, hits, blocked shots, PIM, so I can't just get a bunch of offensive superstars. Brenden Dillon and Brent Seabrook are anchors on my blueline because of their contributions to hits and blocks and I have Matt Martin among the forwards. It makes things a lot more interesting when trading.
    GO WINGS!

    I play fantasy hockey, baseball and football....and it's all H2H. Just all around better. I mean even just the aspect that in roto, if you're not in 4th or 5th by beginning of March (in hockey), no chance you're going to win. As much as I hate losing in the H2H playoffs to a lesser team because of one bad week, it just makes the league 1000 times more interesting.

    As for categories...it all depends on how you want to weigh goalies. A league Im in now has the following:

    G, A, PIM, PPP, SOG
    W, GAA, SV%, SO

    5 vs 4

    But there are many leagues that just do say W and Sv%. Some leagues want to try to make it even cats between players and goalies so they do 5vs5 in categories.

    My suggestion (if youre sold on h2h) would be to decide which player categories you absolutely want and go from there. If you going to go with obscure ones like SHP, Hits or Blks then skaters will definitely have more categories than goalies.

    We have games started, saves, save percentage, goals allowed, shutouts, wins and GAA in my league. Skater categories G, A, Pts, +/-, PIM, PPG, PPA, SHP, hits, blocks, face-off wins and giveaway/takeaway ratio. So 12 for skaters and 7 for goalies. Works pretty well.
