ok, wasn't even aware you were playing a different team every week, this is helpful

and this also confirms that you could probably win with a really good D and goalies against someone who was all-in with forwards but neglected everything else

couldn't it have been just a general cumulation of stats among all players, without actual head-to-heads?

again, I'm a noob dude

yes, we have the choice between a regular pool or head to head. we selected head to head.. more fun because a regular pool one could be out of it pretty quickly, as for head to head you have a chance every week.

If you add one for skaters, you could add save percentage for goalies as well

so save percentage wasn't being considered for now? ok I still have homework to do


(edit: I see so for now it's wins, goals against, saves and shutouts, I'll have to pay attention to this poop lol)

seriously. you will figure it out very quick. it sounds way more complicated than it is.

luckily for you, the app does all the math.

you just have to pick the players.

PIM I guess since there arent that many shg and you don’t want someone to win a category because they lucked out one week and got a shg

yeah I know it's pretty straight forward, just trying to make sense of the algorithm involved and what should be prioritized

i do remember that the thing about guys who play more than one position was pretty helpful.

yeah someone mentioned this, thanks

now I'm wondering why in the mock draft some people pick more than once before me... so you can do trades during the draft?
