No problem.

I'm using a new site for uploading the updates, so let me know if there's any problems.

Also, if you don't have a team for whatever reason, your player will find one on his own.

It says my guy doesn't have a team, but i stated one in my OP?

Some of the teams in the pre-game editor aren't real teams in the game (or that's my assumption, at least), so those players just become free agents. Like I said, your player will find his own team before the season starts so you'll still be playing.

103 points

edit: the rock with 122

[Niloc009]

NICE

90 points (35g55a) for a defense first player! (I take full credit for Kovalchuk^tm's 119 points. Without my takeaways, they wouldn't have all that space to play )

[StevieY]

102 points

[Master 112]

I was injured?

[Ilya Kovalchuk.]

Nice!

64 goals - 55 assists - 119 points, and a +53

Had the most goals out of everyone

[The Wizard of AZ]

Not bad. 70 points playing in a Bantam league. Eat cake Sidney Crosby

Is Influence randomly generated? I.E. you're not the one putting in the stat?

Team is currently in 10th place in a 20 team head to head league. the league has 4 divisions. division winners automatically advance just like in the NHL. You keep 6 players and the rest go back into the draft. Trade deadline is March 10th. We include draft picks etc. in trades.

Most of the league is Vancouverites and since we have prizes for the winner, it makes shipping much easier on I if you live within reason. Don't worry it's a free league.

The team is:

C:

Stamkos, Seguin, Turris, Belanger, Lecavallier, Morrison

LW:

B.Ryan, D.Perron, J.Neal, S.Avery

RW:

C.Stewart, D.Brown, B.Wheeler

D:

J.Johnson, A. Pietrangelo, K. Bieksa, J.Corvo, A. Edler

G:

N.Backstrom, J.Hedberg

Pretty decent team for a 20 team keeper league. Definitely assets to make trades if you wanted to. The team currently has all of it's draft picks.

Message with serious inquiries. This is a Yahoo league.

[Hank Moody]

Can I still join this?

Is Influence randomly generated? I.E. you're not the one putting in the stat?

Correct. There's a few stats that get randomly generated to make it more interesting (e.g. Influence, Consistency, Important Games, Natural Fitness).

Can I still join this?

No, sorry.

I was injured?

No?

[Master 112]

No?

Why is my condition at 69%, though?

[MeatCurtainsMcGee]

Is living in BC a must? I live in Ontario.

Also what are the prizes?

[goalie13]

We have prizes?

Not that it matters. I have an Oiler-like lock on last place.
