NHL Best Ball/Best Puck — Top 200 Rankings
I wanted to get these rankings released earlier but it has taken more time than expected, so better late than never. I have been drafting on Underdog Fantasy for their Best Puck GPP tournament and currently have 46 teams entered. I have tweaked my rankings after each draft but for the most part I wanted to share my top 200 NHL rankings for 2021. I have included “UD ADP” = Underdog Average Draft Position (ADP), and another column of Values to show who stands out as a value or overvalued play based off of my rankings compared to Underdogs ADP.
My basic strategy while playing in this tournament is to stick to a 4/6/3/3 build meaning 4 Centers, 6 Wingers, 3 Defensemen, and 3 Goalies. I also like to adjust my rankings after each draft seeing where I can find value or what players I am too high on based on how drafts are going. I think it makes some sense to pair players together who play on the same team and to really look for those power play performers.
