Disclaimer / Additional Information
This is not a player to player draft guide, simply because
the flow of draft, positions required and many other needs
come into play. The goal of this list is to push poolies to
realize the proper trade value and potential value of the
Top Roto Keepers, using the Roto Rank as the foundation.
The Trade Value (TV) grade reflects what the player’s
perceived worth could be currently at the trade table.
This can help determine overrated vs. underrated players.
The Potential Roto Value (PRV) highlights a two year peak
performance. The higher the player is ranked on the roto
list, the more likely they are to reach their PRV. If used
correctly, this could enhance your return on investment.
** If you are looking for a calculated and true numbers
game, Frozen Pool and Fantasy Hockey Geek (FHP) of the
Dobber Sports Network are two very valuable resources.
Salary and positional requirements do not affect rankings.
