Hey everyone, happy to be back for another (hopefully) great year of fantasy hockey. I wanted to provide you all with the settings and point breakdown of my league this year with the hope that some among you would have input on who to target and who to ignore in my upcoming draft.

Standard 12-Team Yahoo League - H2H with point allocations per stat:
Roster Positions:
C, C, LW, LW, RW, RW, D, D, D, Util, G, G, BN, BN, BN, BN, IR+

Forwards/Defensemen Stat Category - Value
Goals (G) 3
Assists (A) 1.5
Plus/Minus (+/-) 1
Penalty Minutes (PIM) .25
Powerplay Points (PPP) 2
Shorthanded Points (SHP) 3
Game-Winning Goals (GWG) 1
Shots on Goal (SOG) .25
Faceoffs Won (FW) .25
Hits (HIT) .25

Goaltenders Stat Category - Value

Wins (W) 3
Losses (L) -1
Goals Against (GA) -0.5
Saves (SV) 0.50
Shutouts (SHO) 5


I've highlighted one specific stat above because I believe it gives a slight advantage to overall point potential to Centermen. If that's truly the case, should I even bother trying to draft traditional non-Faceoff taking wingers? I have some ideas of who the best centers to target in the league are but wanted to hear from the general crowd thoughts and input.

Below in my signature you will see my old team from last year, which went heavy on multi-eligible centers and which got me 2nd place in our league championship game (still slightly bitter). With face-off point value being raised this year, the same with Goalie saves, I'm trying to narrow my list of targeted players.
