    Worth getting a quick test draft in, if you can. Yahoo can be a bit temperamental on certain browsers.

    Think I'll have to auto draft too. just after landing, feck Ryanair. might make it but going to be very tight.

    You can join in on the draft when it is in progress.

    Thanks for that Joe. Not bad at all. Not sure about Miller and Smith though. Bad auto draft.

    Not 100% sure if I can change them now, but is everyone happy with the league settings before the puck drops tomorrow night?

    You got 2 phillie D man too :-)

    I got every penguin I wanted taken just before my pick was due.

    Picking 7th didn't help but letang, Kunitz, fleury and Martin as my sleeper Dman. No penguins in my line up so I might actually do well :eek:

    I take mike smiths from you. Trade sent

    Since this is a 14 team league are we gonna stay with top 4 playoff bracket or go with top 6. Would be enough weeks after the 22 gameweek schedule to have a 3 week playoff?


  • Registered Users Posts: 15,117 ✭✭✭✭MrJoeSoap


    Six teams makes more sense, keeps more people interested during the season. It is also possible to do 8 teams in weeks 23, 24 and 25.

    Anyone have any thoughts?


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,546 ✭✭✭Masked Man


    I'd go with 6.

    My team is Ice O Topes. I have no idea how good or bad it is, so basically everybody is on the trading block.

    I think 6 is good as the top 2 seeds are rewarded with a bye for the first week of the playoffs. Seeds 3 through 6 playoff in the first week for the right to meet the top 2 seeds in the semis. Works great in other fantasy leagues I've played in...


  • Registered Users Posts: 15,117 ✭✭✭✭MrJoeSoap


    I've set it to 6 teams now.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,146 ✭✭✭aaronm13


    Sounds good.

  • Registered Users Posts: 407 ✭✭Izy


    6 sounds very NFL like. just saying.

    there 8 is the way to go :-) just to be different


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,930 ✭✭✭COYW


    6 is good.

    Is anyone else hating the new interface in the fantasy site?


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 4,969 Mod ✭✭✭✭GoldFour4


    Yeah I was confused by the team page, couldn't figure it out !

    One of my picks is on the DL, so I had a free spot on my roster. Took me ages to add in a replacement for him.


  • Registered Users Posts: 65 ✭✭alanmcl12


    Yeah not a fan at all.

    Just thought I'd leave these 2 links here are handy for quick stats/updates on injuries or starting goaltenders very useful if you have 3 gts to rotate:

    Much prefer the previous interface, not that easy to see who is playing with this one. It will take time to get used of I guess. StatTracker doesn't look to have changed much though.

    the android app is alright, if a bit clunky at times...

    Hey guys, how is the goalie 3 game minimum implemented?
    Is it that if you dont make 3 goalie appearances in the week you lose the goalie categories?
