Playing CFFL.com's All-Star Fantasy Hockey
You choose a Starting Lineup of six players from across the
NHL (for NHL Fantasy Hockey players) or Minor Leagues (for Minor League
Fantasy Hockey League players) each week. Your only limits are the Roster needs of your team -- one player at each
of six positions (Goalie, C, LW, RW, 2 Def). Your team receives points each
week based upon the success of all six players that week -- Team points are the sum of
all six Players' points that week; Team's season Points total is the sum of each week's
points throughout the season.
Fantasy Points are based on Players' actual points production
during NHL/Minor League games played that week. Team with highest
total of Fantasy Points is declared Winner. Season runs the week of October 15th
- March 17th for NHL Fantasy Hockey, October 1 through April 10 for Minor
Leagues Fantasy Hockey. ('Weeks' are considered Friday-through-
Thursday; Week One action starts with games on October 19th.)
Scoring
CFFL.com Fantasy hockey Points are based upon Official
Statistics from NHL/Minor Leagues competition received by CFFL.com
Commissioner's Office.
Each Player on Starting Lineup is assigned fantasy points based upon their actual
game statistics that week.
Fantasy Points are assigned to Players according to the following chart:
An Average per-game Points total is calculated and used as that
Player's contribution to the team's score that week. The Team's weekly score is
calculated as the sum of the individual Fantasy Points scores for each of the five-player
Starting Lineup that week. Season Totals for the team are calculated as the sum of
Weekly Points totals throughout the season.
League Champion is defined as the winner of the League-wide Playoff in the
final week; Overall Points Champion is that team that receives the highest
Total Points at the close of the season.
Roster
Your CFFL Fantasy hockey team will field a six-player lineup
each week. The team will be comprised of one (1) Player from each of the following
positions: Goalie, Center, Left Wing, Right Wing, 2 Defensemen. Owners submit their
list of Starters each week ("Week" defined as 12:00 a.m. Friday to 11:59
pm Thursday). Starting Lineup must include one (1) player at each position, and no
more than one. Positions are defined by CFFL.com All-Star Hockey League
in accordance with Official league Rosters.
Starting Lineup Moves
Owners can make unlimited Roster moves (Player changes) at no
cost.
All changes must be completed before the start of action
each week. (Start of the week is defined as the first game opening face off after
12:00 a.m. Friday, each week -- basically, the first game each Friday. Changes
submitted after this deadline will not be accepted, and players listed as of the deadline
will be used for that week's games; the changes will go into effect for the following
week's games.) If you do not choose to make any changes to your previous
Starting Line Up, your Roster will 'roll over'
from week to week, as-is. Your Roster can not have any more than the specified
number of Players at each position, at any time; any Roster Moves submitted to the League
Office which will result in an excess number of players at a particular position will be
denied.
Leagues
You will be assigned to a League when you Register

encourage Owners to keep in touch with other Owners in their league, and provide email
