    Which free fantasy host site do you prefer and why ?

    Setting up a league w/ some friends for a 2nd year. We used Yahoo last year and really liked the options of hits/PIM for the goon factor. They also had lots of goalie options, however, some of us not crazy about the rotisserie head-to-head style. Don't know if any other sites have a head-to-head points system w/ the flexible options. Wondering if you guys prefer NHL.com, Espn, CBS, or any others - and if so, why ?

    I run and ESPN league. Its H2H custom categories. My league uses 12 categories right now, so scores would be along the lines of 8-4, 6-5-1, 12-0, etc. There are 25 player categories and 13 goalie categories that you can chose from to create your own scoring system. 12 teams in the league so everybody plays everyone 2 times through the year, no bye weeks, then top 4 go to playoffs for 2 week matchups. Ive tried Yahoo, and although I know a lot of people on this site use it, I could never recommend it over ESPN after using both. I just like it better.

    I use Yahoo H2H for the keeper league I run.

    I don't like Hits or Blocks because they vary too much from arena to arena. We also got rid of PIMs after a long debate.

    Thanks for input, we decided to go Espn over Yahoo this year, nice/organized set-up. Can't wait for opening day !

    Im back in a new Yahoo league this year with some guys for work. After not using it for 3 years, I see little improvement. ESPN is years ahead of them still, but of course that just my opinion.

    I have one team in Yahoo that I've been in for 10 years; I just signed up for my first ESPN league this year, so I'll be able to compare the two. I'm used to the Yahoo layout, but I like some of the features in ESPN.
