The team that is leading a specific category (e.g. goals, assists) receives the most points (i.e. 16).

Example
Team Y has 10 goals
Team X has 6 goals
Team Z has 1 goal

Then Team Y gets 3 points, team X gets 2 points, and team Z gets 1 point

This gets repeated for every category. 16 being the best because we have 16 teams.

I am so clueless with this I have lost interest.

Does everyone on the roster play or only the starting line?


PHUCK!

We need to change the rules so we start getting stats for warmups. Then my goalies would start putting up numbers

Exactly...the team with the most goals for the season gets 16, 2nd gets 15, so on until last place which gets 1. The total of points like this in each category are added to create your score listed in the standings.

There are a maximum number of games at each position. I believe 246 for center for example (3 centers for 82 NHL games). If you have 45 centers on your roster, you still only can plau centers in a total of 246 games, so you use your best centers regularly, and the others for when regs are injured, when someone else gets "hot", or in your utility spots.

Why do we get negative points sometimes?

If you are looking at the regular leader board the negative points only reflect the change in your total score. If you were at 100 on tuesday and another team surpassed you in a category (e.g. goals) than you might be at 99 on wednesday thus reflecting a -1 on your total score. If you go to the full scoreboard you will see all the "raw" stats along with the fantasy scoring. Hope that helps
