Top Team Performances
Gameweek 30 belonged to District 5, who exploded to the top of the weekly table with an eye-watering 520.5 points — the highest single-gameweek total we’ve seen in recent weeks. Their late-season form couldn’t have come at a better time, putting pressure on mid-table rivals and making a serious statement heading into the final week.
Hot on their heels, Catenacci C continued their charge with 426.7 points, propelling themselves back into top-five contention. The Habby One delivered a timely bounce-back with 423.5 points, while Whiskey Dicks (420.0) and Leavens Is A Halfpipe (If I Die) (407.7) rounded out the top five for the week — all teams making late-season pushes in a bid for higher placement or podium finishes.
Star Players of the Week
This week featured some monster individual performances. Bobo Carpenter and Gabe Bast tied for top spot with 62.0 points each. Carpenter racked up five goals, while Bast did it all with a goal and four assists, including contributions on both the power play and penalty kill.
Mikko Juusola also shone brightly, tallying 60.0 points through three goals and four assists, including a game-winner. Meanwhile, Brandon Whistle (51.0), Josh Roach (50.0), and Scott Conway (49.0) helped round out one of the most balanced high-scoring weeks of the season.
Between the pipes, Matthew Greenfield once again proved to be the backbone for fantasy teams, earning 34.7 points through two wins and 47 saves. He was supported by strong efforts from Ben Bowns (26.2) and Eamon McAdam (25.9), both of whom put in reliable showings for fantasy managers needing late-season consistency.
Most Selected Players
No surprises in the most-selected list: Matthew Greenfield continues to be the most popular pick in the league, selected by 119 managers. He was followed closely by Joe Morrow (103) and Chase Gresock (93), both staples in the top fantasy squads.
Also among the most trusted were Scott Conway (87), Drydn Dow (84), and Josh MacDonald (82) — a testament to the value of steady contributions and strong team roles as the season winds down.
Overall Standings Update
Heading into the final gameweek, it’s officially a two-horse race at the top of the table. Maple Flames sit in first place with 8,773.7 points, clinging to a 38.5-point lead over the surging Subbuteo Kings (8,735.2). With both teams trading weekly leads in recent weeks, the Gameweek 31 finale is shaping up to be a thriller where every point — and every player selection — could be decisive.
Meanwhile, Whiskey Dicks capitalized on their strong performance to move into third place with 8,631.8 points, staying close enough to pounce if either leader slips. Catenacci C leapt five spots into fourth place (8,591.6 points), and The Habby One (8,585.2 points) slipped slightly to fifth but remain in striking distance of the podium.
The Final Countdown
With just one gameweek remaining, all eyes are on Maple Flames and Subbuteo Kings. The margin is razor-thin, and with both managers having proven their tactical nous throughout the season, the league title could be decided by a single inspired pick, a surprise breakout player, or a goaltender’s heroics.
Below them, the race for third is equally tight. Just 46.6 points separate third from fifth, and any of those teams could finish on the podium with one last strong push. Meanwhile, mid-table teams are still jockeying for position, fighting for pride — and leaderboard bragging rights.
Who will rise? Who will fall? And who will be crowned the 2024 Fantasy Hockey League Champion?
Gameweek 31 has all the makings of a classic.
