Top 100 Roto Rankings: October 2022
Ian Gooding
2022-10-16
With fantasy drafts now in the books, it's on to another season. Now we wait to find out which players burst out of the gate and which players hit the snooze button. As this happens, expect these rankings to change with more frequency throughout the season.
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%. These rankings should be considered rankings over the entire 2022-23 season, but they are different from keeper rankings in that they don't extend beyond that.
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.
