Top 100 Roto Rankings – June 2020
Ian Gooding
2020-06-15
Now that the decision has been made to close the book on the 2019-20 regular season, we will begin to transition into roto rankings for 2020-21.
Because the 2019-20 playoffs (play-in round) will not resume for at least another month, these rankings are in a place where they are not quite ready for 2020-21 fantasy drafts (whenever those would start). Further changes could be made based on results from the 2019-20 playoffs, as well as offseason free agency and trades after that.
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%.
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.
