Once more unto the breach. This is it. Your final push for 2025-26 fantasy hockey glory is upon you.
The final scoring period begins on Monday and extends through the end of the regular season on April 16.
The schedule is not balanced, injuries will be nursed longer for teams at both the top and bottom of the standings, prospects will be given some extra run, goalies will be given some extra rest and, as the playoff matchups crystalize, players will be strategically held out to preserve them for the postseason.
No one said the final push was easy.
As always is the case, these rankings account for injuries and other factors as best they can. Since these rankings are based on expected fantasy points for remaining games, missed time hits harder as the season winds down. Need an example? Cutter Gauthier is expected to miss another two to three games. That's almost half of the remaining season, so he drops from the rankings this week.
Depending on the margins in your league, every shot and every hit could matter.
These rankings are based on expectations of fantasy points produced from Friday until the end of the season.
Skaters: goals = 2 points; assists = 1 point; shots and hits = 0.1 points
blocked shots and special teams points = 0.5 points
Goaltenders: wins = 4 points; OT losses = 1 point; shutouts = 3 points
saves = 0.2 points; goals against = -2 points
