OT: Yahoo fantasy hockey question 

Post#1 » by drew881 » Tue Oct 12, 2010 6:37 pm

Does anyone here have any experience with Yahoo fantasy hockey? I drafted a team yesterday, and our league is in the following format:

C - Malkin
C - Zajac
LW - Nash
LW - Laich
RW - Samuelson
RW - Downie
D - Lidstrom
D - Kaberle
D - Whitney
D - Timmonen
G - Quick
G - Ward
BN - Kopitar
BN - Niemi
BN - Morrow
BN - Kubina

Of particular note here is that there is no forward flex spot. I drafted Malkin, with the idea that he should have RW eligibility at some point during the season, which would allow me to play Zajac, Malkin and Kopitar at all times together, dropping a Downie or Samuelson to my Bench.

Does anyone know if Yahoo switches their eligibility during a season, once they see where everyone is playing (Malkin is playing mostly RW with either Mike Comrie or Mark Letestu as C, and will most likely be a RW when Staal comes back). I got Kopitar in the 5th round, so I'm not too upset over it either way, but I think I have a good chance to win if I can play all three

I think after a player plays a certain number of games at a position, he should get elgibility for it. IE if Malkin plays X amount of games at wing, he should get both C and W elgibility.
