Fantasy Hockey Helper
ABSTRACT
Fantasy sports function on the idea that everybody has an opinion on which players they
think are the best. However, a lot people are willing to acknowledge that their opinion is not the
best out there, and as a result many look to experts or tools online to help them in their fantasy
leagues. Fantasy hockey is no exception to this.
The goal of this project involves making competitive projections, as well as an easy to
use, mobile-friendly web application to host these projections and to assist users in all the
decisions involved in playing fantasy hockey. It will assist users with drafting, picking up free
agents, and managing their roster on both a week-to-week and long-term basis.
The final application successfully achieved the goal of the project, in that its projections
proved competitive with some of the best expert projections, as well as the physical web
application achieved all the functionality goals. Furthermore, the goal to keep it mobile-friendly
and easy to use was also achieved.
