With fantasy drafts now available on Yahoo and other platforms, the Roto Rankings needed another update for August. If you already have a draft for the upcoming season, then the rankings might help.

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.

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.
