Draft workbook

The offline half of the draft room. A board you type picks into on a second screen, with best-available, VORP against replacement level, position scarcity, the ledger, every roster, the standings and the pick log all recalculating as you go — with no network connection at all, which matters more than it sounds: draft night is exactly when a site you depend on is least likely to be the thing you want to depend on.

League

Your league is onFormat

Naming your site is not cosmetic: it sets position eligibility and ADP. The four sites disagree about both — Fantrax has Draisaitl at C/LW where a generic board has him at centre, and Vasilevskiy goes 11th on Yahoo and 70th on Fantrax.

W takes either wing, F takes any forward, UTIL takes any skater, and each pushes replacement level deeper for the positions that can fill it — W across the wings only, F across the forwards only.

What is in it

Read meWhat each sheet is for and how the file is meant to be used on the night, written into the workbook so it travels with the file rather than living on this page.

DraftThe whole night on one sheet: the entry rail with who is on the clock above it, the forty best available with your categories, the ledger, the best man left at each position, and your own roster filling in as your turns come up.

BoardThe grid, filled from the Draft sheet. Your column is highlighted.

By positionBest available at each position, side by side, for when the question is not who is best but who is best at the seat you still have open.

Auction ValuesAUCTION LEAGUES ONLY. Where each man's dollars come from, category by category, measured against the man who sets replacement at his position. Negative means he gives you less there than replacement does — the cost of the categories he cannot help you in.

ScarcityReplacement level per position, how many are gone, and the cliff below the best man left.

PlayersThe whole pool. Drafted men grey out and strike through; filter the Gone column to hide them.

My teamYour roster and your running category totals.

RostersEvery team's roster with category totals, not just yours.

StandingsThose totals ranked, plus roster shape: first-unit power plays, top lines, top pairs, killers, position counts.

StrengthsYour totals against par, pro-rated to the picks you have actually made.

Cheat sheetOne page, built to print: tiers by position with the numbers that decide a pick and nothing that does not.

ChangelogWhat has moved in the projections since the last snapshot. The file is taken offline and used for weeks while the numbers behind it keep changing; this is the diff.

The workbook costs nothing to build. It is made and paid for by one person, so if it earns its place on your second screen on draft night, you can support it on Ko-fi.

The numbers behind all three

Every surface on this page runs on a projection set. Use ours, adjust it, or replace it — whatever you pick here is what the board, the workbook and the live room all read.

The default

Our projections

The model, for every skater and goalie.

Role-anchored: ice time, line and power-play unit first, production second. Nothing here needs setting up — if you never touch this section, this is what the board uses.

Open our projections →Yours · most control

Advanced Sandbox

Disagree with the model and see what it costs.

Build your own line combinations, move ice time, override production per 60 or the output directly, and every downstream number updates as you go. If you think a man is getting first-unit power play and we do not, say so here.

Open the sandbox →Yours · fastest

Custom point projections

Your league's scoring, applied to our numbers.

Set what each category pays and the whole board re-ranks. No line editing, no ice time — the quickest way to make the values match a league nobody else scores the way yours does.

Open custom scoring →Live · the alternative

Draft portal

The same board, in the browser, synced to your draft.

If you would rather not run a spreadsheet on the night: prep, a mock room against bots that reach and slide like a real one, and a live room that takes picks from Yahoo or ESPN as they happen. Same values, same ledger, and you can tap any player to open his profile.
