Fantasy hockey rankings: Connor Hellebuyck's injury shakes up top players

Fantasy NHL, NHL

The kids are all right. Macklin Celebrini and Matt Boldy are joined in the top 20 in this update by Connor Bedard, who, despite being the lone Blackhawks skater firmly in the top 100 for actual fantasy points (Tyler Bertuzzi is tied for 99th, as it were), continues to pile on the offense.

Connor Hellebuyck's injury shakes things up. This drop to No. 82 factors in both the time he's expected to miss and some concerns about how sharp he'll be upon returning from knee surgery.

These rankings are based on expectations of fantasy points produced from Friday, Nov. 21, 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.
