Tigs

Please welcome @Squeak as GM of the Washington Capitals!

Please Note: @Tylez will be switching from the Dallas Stars to the Columbus Blue Jackets as we may transition him into an Agent role in the future. We also would have a balance of 3 GM's in the East ( @Tigs, @Tylez, and @canucklax) and 3 GM's in the West ( @Patrick Kane, @Blue Jay 22, and @BM24) who are involved in management. Apologies to anyone who may have wished to GM the Dallas Stars. We appreciate your patience as we both learn how to run things on our end as a Board and continue to sort out the league as best as possible with the future in mind. Please also welcome @Monty and @D-Money as co-GM's of the Minnesota Wild!

Please welcome @Primal Optimist (Arizona) and @Sergei Bobrovsky (Islanders) as the most recent GM's hired!

Please welcome @Intoewsables (Los Angeles), @Mike Vanderhoek (Montreal), @Boeserific (Ottawa), and @Zach Parise (New Jersey) as the most recent GM's to be hired!

First wave of GM's posted. Congrats to all hired on the first go around! If your name is not on the list the BoG is still having some discussions regarding who and what we feel is best for our league long term. Also, as mentioned previously, if you have interest in the league feel free to shoot us a PM with your application. Cheers, Tigs

Hey Bomba! Feel free to shoot me a PM if you're interested. Pickup was just a system that we are familiar with...as for PIMs we wanted to add some value to bottom 6 players. With it only being 0.5 per Minute (1 point every 2 penalty minutes) it shouldn't make any of these players a top pick...just a little extra added value.

Welcome to the Elite Keeper League! This is a new 31 team Fantasy league run by myself, @Patrick Kane, @Blue Jay 22, @Tylez, and @canucklax and we could not be more ecstatic to finally be presenting this to you guys. Our goal is to create a league that stands the test of time and is not just a flash in the pan. As a result this is NOT a first come first served league. Please PM the entire board with your application which should include prior fantasy experience and your top 3 teams. The list of GM's will be announced later on. Our fantasy draft will be a 36 round draft that will start sometime after the IRL NHL entry draft and run through the summer. Time limits will be lengthy in order to create a relaxed environment through these months - after all, it is the off-season. With years of experience among different leagues, the board of governors has put together what we feel is an ideal blend in regards to the scoring system, tracking rosters, contracts, and trading. Please see below for the link to our in-depth Collective Bargaining Agreement. Any further questions, please feel free to send myself a PM and I will be happy to answer.

Hadn't played in probably 8 months, enjoying the Mercy change though. The consistent rez is much nicer than waiting for 3 people to die before you use it.

I know we need some help on the O line, but Dalvin Cook in a Seahawks uniform would be amazing in my opinion.

Haven't had the chance to play after the new update. Plan on adding most of you all on the weekend though!

@Chris LOL, is that even REAL. That's ridiculous. I realize now that I am a terrible Lucio, haha.

If you guys want to group up my btag is Sloan#1340. On PC. If not, no worries. I totally understand how it is with competitive. @StealthNuck @Mimerez I should also mention I was either 56 or 58 the first season which at the time was pretty high (afaik).

Lol, I'd probably fall into the worse and more casual category there. I think I'm around 2200. I tend to play some week nights/weekend nights.

Yeah for sure. The only thing is that while my friends are awesome to play with they are either not interested in pushing rank or are not really that good (not saying that I'm amazing either, haha). It's hard to find people who are both decent at the game and fun to play with. I don't really enjoy playing with people who rage or get mad at the game. I played too much competitive WoW in the past and have a bad taste in my mouth, lol.

Lol, I'm honestly a terrible Zen and a decent Lucio at best. My saving grace is that I can play every category at least decently...definitely hear what you're saying though.

Enjoying the Mercy rez buff. Trying to get back into this a bit. Forgot how hard solo q'ing is....the struggle to get back into plat is real.

TS throwing shade at one of the old school WN members. :S

Looks like you could stand to chill a little bit, lol.

Rogue type character coming soon apparently.

It's true. I used to heal when I did Arena's in WoW back in the day and definitely felt that a lot. Wishing I had a PS4 now tbh. Sounds like you would have a good group to play with, lol.

This is very frustrating. Another thing that sucks is when you're playing Mercy and you can tell your team is doing $&!# damage, but if you stop healing to do damage they're gonna bitch at you and call it your fault that you lost :S.
