Top 100 Roto Rankings: November 2021
Ian Gooding
2021-11-16
With a month of the season already in the books, there are plenty of updates with new names, as well as injured and underperforming players falling out. Truth be told, there could be more updates, but a month might not be enough of a sample size to determine a player's true value.
As you might expect, some of the biggest risers and fallers have been in net. We will continue to take into account preseason rankings, but many goalies that were drafted outside of the top 100 are already providing terrific value and should be accounted for here.
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 are intended for 2021-22 single-season leagues and are different from keeper rankings.
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.
