Ok - made some executive decisions.
I changed the rules/scoring to match the Fantrax default scoring.

A few changes to what we had in place:
1. CS on Field - this is slightly different than our rule - and allows for players to keep CS if they leave with a CS, even if the opponent scores later (Must play 60 minutes)
"Awarded to a player who played at least 60 minutes and whose team gave up 0 goals during the time the player was on the field, even if a goal was scored after the player left the field"
Same Scoring as before: 6 points for GK and D, 1 point for M, 0 for F
2. Penalty Kicks Drawn - "Player fouled within the penalty box (excludes any penalty kicks drawn for handballs)" 2 points
3. Yellow Cards reduced to -2 points
4. Blocked Shots "Any goal attempt heading roughly on target toward goal which is blocked by a defender, where there are other defenders or a goalkeeper behind the blocker."
1 point for all players
5. Smothers - 1 point for GK who smother the ball - no idea how Opta defines that, the glossary defines it as "Smothers"
I assume a GK comes out and smothers the ball from an attacker - so not a save, but obviously saved a scoring opportunity.
6. High Claims Succeeded - Goalkeeper catches a cross: 1 point.
Everything else remains the same. You can see the effect on scoring on the website by looking at the players.
Fabianski had the most smothers with 8, Emi Martinez had the most High Claims with 39.
Blocked shots - leaders in the 40s, top-20 is 22 blocked shots.
Vardy and Werner topped teh PKs drawn at 5.
