Chase Davis's Top 200 Overall Fantasy Hockey Rankings for Week 5 of the 2019-2020 NHL season. Use these rankings for start / sit, waiver wire, and matchup decisions to improve your rosters throughout the season - via trade or free agency.
We're back with fantasy hockey coverage at RotoBaller. Just like last year, over the course of the 2019-2020 NHL season, we'll be providing weekly updates to our fantasy hockey rankings - listing each player in terms of his rest-of-season value.
Below you can find our top 200 player rankings from Week 5 going forward. This set of rankings combines all positions into one singular list including centers, wingers, defensemen and goalies.
Please note that our rankings are determined considering a standard Yahoo league format (goals, assists, plus-minus, power play points, shots on goal, and hits for skaters; wins, goals against average, save percentage, and shutouts for goalies). Value is based on factors such as past production, future NHL potential, age, projections, line/defensive pair combinations, quality of a player's team and contract status.
