After taking a break for the month of April, the Roto Rankings are back for May. Consider these rankings very preliminary rankings for next season before the usual flurry of offseason activity.
The stat categories for the Roto Rankings are as follows: Goals, Assists, Special Teams Points, Shots on Goal, Hits, and Blocked Shots.
For goalie rankings, please check out the Top 100 Keeper League Goaltender rankings for relative goalie values.
