NOTES: Basic fantasy pools have the following scoring system: goals and assists count for skaters with a potential bonus for a hat trick; wins count for goalies with a potential bonus for a shutout. Team tricodes indicate participating countries; each player's current NHL team is also noted. Finland and Sweden players have been removed from these rankings as each country's three games in the 4 Nations Face-Off have already been played.

SKATER RANKINGS

On top of each skater’s potential for goals, assists and a hat trick bonus, value has been quantified based on factors including but not limited to past production in the regular season, Stanley Cup Playoffs and/or international tournaments, projected line combinations, sleeper or bounce-back potential and overall upside for the 4 Nations Face-Off championship game.
