what do you guys think the best site for fantasy hockey is??
I\'ve only used Yahoo but from looking on here there seems to be a lot of people that use CBS... Is CBS that much better than Yahoo?? I wouldn\'t be surprised if the answer is yes but just looking for some info on other sites.

We switched to ESPN this year and really liked it. The advantages are that on ESPN they have the option of conducting your draft by auction. They also have a deep list of available players if you want to draft prospects. They have live statistics for free, and lots of customization options. The only disadvantage is the waiver system for weekly leagues.
CBS is good because they have weekly statistics, but you need to use their default settings for the pool to be free. Since we have different stat categories, CBS doesn\'t work for us. There are three main reasons we switched from yahoo. First, the auction draft software. Second, yahoo makes you pay for live statistics. Third, none of our prospects were available, so we needed to pick other players and say that they were the prospect when the prospect was recalled. This was a horrible pain because Turris wasn\'t added to the system until after he\'d played games, and it was after our movement deadline. Another option is to set your league up in multiple systems and get owners to try them out for a week, then decide which league to delete. I hope this helps. Mabus

Keep an eye out for www.fantrax.com - they\'ve got decent stuff in place as it is now, and they\'re VERY responsive to requests for new features. I\'m hopeful that I\'ll be able to swing a keeper that\'s been on Yahoo for a couple years over to Fantrax in the fall.

I have noticed in baseball at least that ESPN has a TON more prospects than Yahoo! I did a football league on ESPN a few years ago and didn\'t like the format compared to Yahoo but I do like the fact that they have a lot more prospects involved in other sports.

The only things I\'m really missing from ESPN are (1) dual position eligibility and (2) the possibility to run the final for two weeks instead of one.

I have never seen the ESPN hockey (I think that\'s newer), but for a private fantasy site I like CBS by far the best over the couple others I have looked at. We have used CBS for about 6 years and it\'s easy to navigate through and the stats fill all the needs of the league
