Using the app

Rankings

The Skaters and Goalies tabs list players with their 2026-27 projection. Without an account, the ranking shows the top 50 skaters and the top 10 goalies; the rest comes with an account, free for the whole 2026-27 season. Click a column header to sort; click a row to open the player card — three-season history, per-84 pace, range, salary. Search, the position and team filters and the cap range (min-max, in $M — players with no listed contract are excluded) combine.

Pool rules account

The pool rules — "Pool rules" button in the filter bar, or the panel in "My pools" — set the points your pool awards: goals and assists for forwards and defensemen separately, a power-play bonus, wins and shutouts for goalies. Five more entries are available: hits and blocked shots for all skaters, goals against, saves and overtime losses for goalies. Enter a goal against as a negative number, say −1, if your pool penalizes it. The whole ranking recalculates and the setting follows your account.

Compare

The + button puts up to three players side by side; the best value in each row is highlighted. With an account, the last row gives the probability, over 1,500 simulated seasons, that each player beats the first one selected.

Live draft account

On draft night, turn on "Draft mode": "Taken" removes a player picked by an opponent, "Mine" adds them to your team. The list then shows only available players. "Reset draft" clears every choice in one step.

My pools account

Up to five pools, each with its own name, scoring and roster. The selector in the filter bar switches pools everywhere — rankings, bargains, draft mode, simulations. Summary cards show each pool's projection, simulated median, actual results and "yesterday", updated every morning. Your pools follow your account on every device; Export/Import moves them as a file. “Optimal roster” suggests the lineup that maximizes projected points under the pool's structure — forwards, defensemen, goalies and cap budget —, keeping your picks and excluding taken players: useful mid-draft.

Bargains account

"Value $" compares a player's cap hit with the median cap of players ranked around the same projected rank: a positive green gap flags production at a discount. "Rebound" shows the pool points to be regained over 2025-26, only when the player has already produced at the targeted level.

Export account

"Export CSV" downloads the current view, filters and sort included, ready for Excel.

Teams

The Teams tab gives projected points and playoff probability for all 32 teams, by division — useful for picking goalies or breaking ties between equal players. In the rankings, the PP1 tag flags a first-power-play-unit player.

Language

The English / Français button switches the whole interface, number formats included.
