Fantasy Hockey Rankings: Top Players for 2024-25

The fantasy schedule is going to get weird in another week or two, so keep an eye on your lineup and ranking decisions. With the 4 Nations Face-Off coming up, we have only one more "normal" full week of fantasy hockey until the "mega week" that basically encompasses most of the month of February. For the purposes of lineups and matches in the ESPN game, Feb. 3 to Feb. 23 is only one scoring period. After that, there are only three more weeks until the playoffs begin in head-to-head leagues, so stay sharp! These rankings are based on expectations of fantasy points produced from Friday, Jan. 24, until the end of the season. Fantasy points are based on the ESPN Fantasy standard game (for skaters: goals = 2 points, assists = 1 point, shots and hits = 0.1 points, blocked shots and special-teams points = 0.5 points; for goaltenders: wins = 4 points, OT losses = 1 point, shutouts = 3 points, saves = 0.2 points, goals against = -2 points).
