Top 10 Overvalued Fantasy Hockey Players of 2021-22

The term “bust” makes sense for attention-grabbing headline purposes, but it’s a reductive term in a fantasy-hockey context. Labelling a player a bust implies I’m Homer-Simpson-Bushes-Meme-style backing away from him in all drafts. That’s not always true. I’m not necessarily against owning the player. The “bust” status applies because I’m leery about his average draft position (ADP). Getting him in standard Yahoo drafts requires paying a cost I don’t expect to be profitable. A perfectly good player can thus land on a bust list if I simply don’t like his ADP. “Overvalued” is a more accurate label than “bust,” however, which is why I renamed this column a few years back.
