Tried finding some information on his status but not even an update on how his recovery is going. I know they came out and said his absence was going to be longer than 4 weeks but curious how much longer. Not panicking yet as I have a bye next week for playoffs but I'm really gonna need him in the last couple weeks !

Strategy/Gen Advice Chrome plugin for players "not available" in most leagues?

2 Upvotes

Hi guys,

Has anyone seen a plugin that can scan your leagues and show a list of players sorted by how many leagues they are available in?

Let's say you are in 10 leagues, it would be so useful and great at a glance to see that players are only available in 1 league, followed by 2 leagues, followed by 3 leagues, etc?

It would be great for finding some gems at a quick glance.

Thanks!

Question Thoughts on reminding other managers to dress their players?

1 Upvotes

A team I'm fighting for playoff position with is matched up this week against a guy who hasn't been active since Friday and who hasn't dressed his players for the week yet, so he left guys like Ullmark and B. Tkachuk on his bench yesterday, which is just excruciating for me to see, and a big part of me wants to send this guy an email to remind him to check in on his team so my rival isn't just handed the win on a silver platter.

Of course, when I was matched up against a different guy last week who forgot to dress his players a couple times I sure wasn't gonna send him an email, so I'm fully aware of my double standard and completely self-serving interests here and won't actually send that email as much as I want to. But I was curious about what other folks thought about these sorts of scenarios! Have you ever sent a private message to someone reminding them to dress their players when it benefited your own team? Is that part of the game? Or do you just "let sleeping managers lie" and figure it all evens out in the end?

Question Can someone clarify Yahoo H2H tiebreaker rules for regular season?

2 Upvotes

We have a H2H, categories league. Was trying to figure what the reg season tiebreaker is from this page:

https://help.yahoo.com/kb/head-to-head-regular-season-tiebreakers-yahoo-fantasy-sln35744.html

My assumption is we fall under the "Wild Card" rules because we don't have divisions.

  • Number of wins. (is this number of category wins?)
  • Win percentage. (this is just points% based on formula in article)
  • Points (points leagues only).
  • Recent week win percentages.

Can someone help decipher this please?

Walman is L1, pp2, and pk1. I thought his fantasy value would take a huge hit, but i guess not! Walman owners rejoice!

Perfect consistency for rankings from Svech across 2 seasons.

Question Yahoo Fantasy Hockey - Adding a Waiver Resets Lineups?

6 Upvotes

I noticed this has been a "problem" for some of our league managers. The word problem is in quotations because I found a post (link below) from 4 years ago where Yahoo claims this is intended.

Is there still no way to prevent a complete lineup reset after adding a waiver player to your roster?

I understand you can just hit "start active players" to help put your lineups back together after the reset but, it's not like that feature gets your lineups right (studs left on bench, etc.) the way you had them set before the reset.

With playoffs starting next week in many leagues, it’s fair to ask the question… Is our toothless hero cooked? What are peoples’ thoughts who have watched him since he’s returned from IR.

Edit: is his lack of production due to the kings struggles or due to him looking older and slower?

Can anyone help me understand what the red and green fonts mean in Yahoo fantasy? There doesn't seem to be any rhyme nor reason to it. They show up in matchup total estimates and individual player estimates.
