2022-23 Top 250 Fantasy Hockey Rankings

It can be a challenge to compare the fantasy values of forwards, defensemen, and goaltenders. Knowing when to take the best player or fill a positional need can be a significant factor in how your draft turns out. Here we have the overall top 250 fantasy hockey rankings to help clear that up and ensure you draft the best team possible.

At the Top

Connor McDavid is no surprise at the top of the list. He’s the clear-cut favorite in nearly every format. I feel the same way about Auston Matthews and Leon Draisaitl going second and third in most drafts. These three simply have too much offensive prowess on a consistent basis and are the safest picks for reaching 100 or more points.

After that trio is where things become interesting. There’s a valid argument to continue taking forwards and go with Nathan MacKinnon at fourth. However, this is where I go in a different direction and look at goaltending. Andrei Vasilevskiy and Igor Shesterkin are head and shoulders above other netminders. These two are in a tier of their own and are arguably the only two surefire bets for having elite fantasy goaltending. Once McDavid, Matthews, and Draisaitl are off the board, I think it’s a wise move to lock in your goaltending. Then you don’t need to worry about picking any goalies until much later in the draft.

I have him at 10th, but I’ve seen Cale Makar taken much higher. His ADP (average draft position) is 5.63, but I’m cautious with taking a defenseman that high. Unless your league awards extra points to defensemen, it’s much safer to go with a forward. Makar is coming off a fantastic season with 28 goals and 86 points, and while it’s possible he builds on that even further, I wouldn’t want to risk a top-five pick on that happening. In a 12-team league, once you get to the later picks of the first round is when I’d target Makar. That way you can still get an 80-90 point forward with your second-round pick.

The first three rounds are likely to be predominantly filled with forwards. The only other defensemen I have in that range are Roman Josi, Victor Hedman, Adam Fox, and John Carlson. It’s even scarcer in net, with Ilya Sorokin as the only other goaltender with Vasilevskiy and Shesterkin. If you miss out on any of these players, I wouldn’t immediately reach for the next player available in that position. You could build a formidable forward group, then fill out the defense and goaltending in the mid to late rounds.
