On this episode of the Keeping Karlsson Fantasy Hockey Podcast, Elan, Brian, Ben and Dave mock draft in a fun way that gives us get a fresh angle on the fantasy value of over 160 skaters heading into 2021-22.

This kind of mock draft (which is the format in which Brian and Elan first drafted against each other 20-odd years ago!) sees each of the four managers take turns making the first pick in a round. Whoever has first pick in the the round selects a team, and a player from that team. Then, the other three managers take turns each drafting one player from the selected team. The league is all skaters, points only, and no positional requirements.
