Top 300 Keeper League Skaters – December 2021

Dobber

2021-12-03

Here are the Top 300 skaters to own in your points-only dynasty leagues – December edition!

Lots of movement here in the early months of the 2021-22 NHL regular season. As always, if two players you are looking at are within +/-5.0 rating points of each other consider them equal value. At that point it becomes a matter of personal bias and/or your team’s needs.

This is for your basic points-only league with no positional requirements (generally defensemen aren’t as valuable in those leagues. But they do still get points and thus should be included. However, the keeper league defensemen rankings will be out Saturday – they get their own valuation.
