For every ten minutes in penalties that your player gets, he is awarded 1 pt.

This was probably implemented back when Hockey was a different style played game and teams would have a Goon on their roster. So basically the league decided to award points for penalties.

I think that this is a stupida fockin stat, but that's how Yahoo does it.

Years ago I played in a league where you were allowed one goon position on your starting roster. And that player was NOT awarded ANY points except for penalty minutes.

But I cannot understand why a league would award points for for accumulated penalty minutes for all of your players. Makes no sense to me.

But anyway, I am enjoying playing fantasy hockey and I'm sure that after this season the fantasy leagues will adjust many things to coincide with the new rules in hockey.
