    Default CAGE MATCH TOURNEY - Round 1 - rising centers bracket

    Welcome to the Summer 2015 Cage Match Tournament. This time you’ll be voting to determine the player who’ll see his Yahoo draft position rise or fall by the most as compared to his 2014-15 Yahoo average. In round one of the tourney there will be separate brackets for each of risers and fallers for centers, wingers, and defensemen – for a total of six brackets.

    This bracket is for rising centers.

    Each player is listed above with his average 2014-15 Yahoo Fantasy Hockey draft position in parentheses. Thus, for the risers brackets, you’re voting for the one player whose draft position will improve the most versus 2014-15. For the fallers, it’s whose draft position will drop by the most.

    The “rules” will all be summarized in my Cage Match column that will be live in the morning of Wednesday July 8th. But for now, the most important thing to keep in mind is you should base your voting on a hypothetical one year league with G, A, +/-, Hits, PPP and SOG as equally weighted categories.

    Have fun voting, and be sure to come back and vote in the upcoming rounds to ensure your voice is heard!

    Tyler Johnson. No way he doesn't jump in the top 100.

    Agree once again with MarmotKing. TyJo might actually see the biggest jump of all players.

    TyJo is an easy choice, but I decided to buck the trend and went with Soderberg who had something like 36 even strength points with limited minutes in Boston.
    Consider Sim Hockey because guys who play shutdown minutes, deflect shots and clear creases build championships. Yet in fantasy they litter the unwanted UFA lists.

    Being a bit pedantic, but curious on why Forsberg is included in the centre list when he was primarily a winger last year (FOW=3 all season)? I know he had C eligibility, but I don't think he should.

    It was done in order to balance brackets, since I already had more than enough wingers for their rising bracket but would've been left with only 7 without Forsberg here. And as you said, he was technically eligible as a center.....
