Fantasy Hockey Draft Times

MrJoeSoap

Hi all,

So the finalised team list is as follows!

MrJoeSoap Board Street Bullies
smackbunnybaby TBDTBC
malachyscott Golden Flames
Coeus Henry Le Cheat
persie11 Chara's Inner Demon
krissovo Flaming A-Holes
cena Go nhl
TechnoPool Really Big Shoe
COYW Ovie's_front_teeth
StevoTG Rusty Nails
Izy izy's penguins
Shanannigan Stanley Cup #25

Think those are all correct... ?

I have changed the league around slightly as there are only 12 teams rather than 14. Each player will play 22 rounds (i.e. - will play each other player twice). The playoffs will then be played over two weeks, weeks 23 and 24, between the top 4 seeds. 1st vs 4th and 2nd vs 3rd in the semi-finals. All other teams will be locked after week 22 to prevent unfair trading to the playoff teams.

Also, I've increased the draft pick time to 90 seconds as 60 seconds is a bit short. We'll have extra time now that there are only 12 teams anyway.

Is everyone ok with this?

If everyone could copy and paste the below with a "YES" beside their preferred times for the draft, I will compile them and see what slot most people are available to make. If other times (late night, morning, afternoon...) suit people better, please let me know.

Also for the playoffs we could have a consolation final series for teams 5th through 8th. That should keep interest for the majority of the league. Everything else looks good. Have you set a trade deadline for the league?

MrJoeSoap

Thanks Coeus. I have the option to run an 8 team playoff from Week 23 to 25 but it'd be in a 1x8, 2x7... format, rather than a top 4 and a consolation. I don't mind either way, what do you think?

Trade deadline is 8th March.

any time after 9 well suite me.

Izy

anytime really, no saturday or sunday

MrJoeSoap

Thanks lads. That's pretty much 7 votes for Tuesday, 4th October after 9pm. Unless it doesn't suit the remaining five, it is looking like that will be the time.

Yea, I was thinking earlier from the first few votes that Tuesday 4/10 was the most popular choice :-)

As for the playoffs anyone else have thoughts how we should structure them if we have 8 teams qualifying?

smackbunnybaby

Oct 4th Tuesday suits but it has to start at 10 at earliest as I am always busy til 9:30 ish on a Tuesday!

smackbunnybaby

Play Offs should be like our baseball.
Top 4 in Championship
5-8 in runners up championship

From what I can see on Yahoo, it isn't possible to do this for the NHL (see attachment). Unless that is the standard way they do it? It doesn't really give much more information than what the screenshot shows.
