Every once in a while, you’ll read about a fantasy general manager punting a category in a league that counts several peripherals. This is a nice way of saying that the GM will ignore that particular statistic when drafting and instead focus on everything else. Usually, the punted category is plus/minus, but I feel like [...]
I will have an announcement officially announcing a release date for the 13th annual Fantasy Prospects Report next Monday (for realsies this time) in the Ramblings, on Twitter and on Facebook. I am (still) awaiting the NHL’s decision about when their draft will take place, and I believe that decision will finally come this week. [...]

For the next few weeks, I will be focusing my attention on those already [...]
The Top 100 Roto Rankings for May are now here! Have a look, and use it as a reference if you play in a multicategory league. Don’t be shy about leaving feedback as well. You may notice something about player valuation that I don’t, so I do take any comments into consideration as I rank [...]

Aside from a few minor adjustments, previously injured players who would be healthy enough to return will re-enter the rankings. This list will continue to assume that the 2019-20 [...]
