Top 100 Roto Rankings – December 2020

Ian Gooding

2020-12-15

Coming up to fantasy drafts that should happen within the next 30 days (barring any further delays), there haven't been a ton of changes throughout the Roto Rankings. However, as fantasy owners in single-season leagues decide who their first pick will be, there have been some changes within the top 10. Most notably, after further analysis and reflection, there is a new number one in the rankings.

Keep in mind that these are single-season rankings for a head-to-head or rotisserie league using the following settings: G, A, +/-, PPP, SOG, HIT, W, GAA, SV%.

Are there any players that you believe are ranked too high or too low? Did we miss anyone in the top 100, or is there a player there that probably shouldn't be? Let us know in the comments below, and we will consider your feedback when compiling next month's rankings.
