Top 100 Roto Rankings: April 2023
Ian Gooding
2023-04-15
The 2022-23 regular season has just finished at the time that these rankings are published. If you're already looking ahead to next season, these rankings could be considered very preliminary rankings for the 2023-24 season and will be adjusted throughout the offseason based on player transactions and further research on player values.
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%. They are different from keeper rankings in that they don't extend beyond the current season. These rankings could even be used to determine relative trade value between two or more players listed.
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.
