Drewismyname Posted May 19, 2015 Author Share Posted May 19, 2015 . WELCOME Please Send all questions, concerns, roster fixes etc to my inbox as opposed to the chatter thread. If they are posted in the thread, they will be ignored. Thank you . Reminder All Waiver eligible players currently on your minors team (Check spreadsheet if minors have not yet been transposed to your fantrax team page. This will be finished in a few days to a week) must clear waivers before the start of the season. Please waive all waiver eligible players who you plan to start in the minors before October 1st. Re-Signings Between Now and 31 December, teams are permitted to discuss a new contract with two pending UFAs/RFAs Between 1 January and the Trade Deadline Day, teams are permitted to discuss terms with any remaining UFAs/RFAs. Not all players will wish to discuss contracts in-season; an enquiry made to a player will count as a discussion, so choose your offers wisely. Player agents will act in the players' interests. Hometown discounts may be given, or exorbitant requests made. It is up to GMs to manage their future cap situation and any GMs signing their team into future financial difficulties will be placed under intense scrutiny by the league. (CW) UFA/RFA Enquiries to be sent to Drewismyname. Decisions will be put to a vote between all commissioners. Where did my Minor League Team Go?

GMs will be required to ice a team of twelve forwards, six defensemen, and one goalie daily. The remaining players will be "benched" for that day. The cutoff time for lineup changes will be 12PM PST. GMs will have the ability to set "future lineups" in Fantrax, according to the NHL schedule. Limit of 50 total under contract in AHL and NHL combined. Nhl salary cap is 71.4 million. Cap floor is 52.8 million. NHL Buyout rules apply. Call-Ups/Send-Downs To move players to and from your NHL and AHL teams, post in the League Thread. Roster transactions between NHL and Minor League teams must be posted before 12PM PST to collect points for that day. Waivers Waiver Eligibility: Skaters that are over the age of 26 or have 150 games played in the NHL are subject to waivers. Goalies, if they have at least 80 games in the NHL. Individual players waivers will be re evaluated each game by fantrax. If you cannot move your player to the minors and could a few days earlier, most likely they reached 150 games or the age of 27. Once a waiver eligible player is put on waivers in the League Thread, the other teams have 48 hours to claim said player. Waiver Order: The waiver order for the first season will be a reverse order of the first round of the fantasy draft. After a team claims a player from another team off waivers, they go to the bottom of the list. Burying Cap: If a waiver eligible player is demoted to their minor league affiliate, and has a contract over 1m, their team will have a cap penalty of the amount over 1m. (e.g. 2m contract demoted to ahl, 1m still on the books.) How to put a player on waivers: Simply post in the thread that want to place your player on waivers with the intention of putting them on your minors team. After 48 hours, if no other team is interested in claiming them, they will stay on your minors team (to clear up room your player may be placed on your minors team so you can bring up a replacement. Please indicate the player you intend to bring up, even though you can do it manually through fantrax without a commissioner. In the event that this is done before the daily roster movement cutoff, but a commissioner hasn't made the change yet, we will need to know who to replace the moving player with when we backdate the transaction. Waiver Priority If more than one team puts in a claim on a player during the waiver period, then the team with the higher waiver priority's claim is accepted. If the claim is before November 1, waiver priority is based on the previous year's standings, with the team with the worst record having first priority and the team with the best record having last priority. If the claim is after November 1, waiver priority is based on the current year's standings, defined as the lowest percentage of possible points. Injuries Injured Reserve: To place a player on the IR, select player on fantrax, and move them to the red injured reserve area. Only players with a red flag next to their name are eligible to be placed in the fantrax IR. When a player that has been placed on the IR becomes healthy (no red flag beside name in fantrax), the GM has two days remove them from the IR. If two days have elapsed and the player is still on the IR after he is deemed healthy, their lineup is illegal and no points will be collected until the player is moved. Remember, all roster transactions must be executed before 12PM PST. While the rule is two days, GMs are urged, in the spirit of fair play, to move the player as soon as they are healthy. Positions Teams will not be permitted to ice their players out of position. Players listed as playing a position on one of the following sites that add to those Fantrax lists, may have those positions added: NHLTSNSportsnetElite ProspectsHockeyDBYahoo Please send Captain Woodget a PM with a direct link for each players corresponding proof with "CDC Puck Player Positions" and your team name in the subject line. Player Happiness Player happiness will not be proactively mandated (player demanding a trade etc) in an effort to keep this league as free of commissioner bias as possible. In the occasion of retaining your pending UFA, we may however dig deeper into the situation and use this variable in our decision to sign the player to your or another team's offer. If you offer 5m to your pending UFA star and another team offers 5m and is more likely to win the stanley cup, the player will ask for more money or take the new team's contract. We do not want this to turn into a popularity contest so there won't be too much interpretation and thinking on behalf of NHL players, but we will use some basic factors in re-signings that may border on player happiness (Team's likelyhood of winning is the big one) Captaincy is not a factor Scoring:SKATERS: +/-: .75 Blk: .75 Fight: 3 Goal: 5 Assist: 4 Game winning goal: +1 Hit: .5 Hat Trick: +3 Ot Goal: +1 Short handed Point: +1GOALIES: Assist: 4 Ot loss: 5 Shut-out: +5 Win: 10 Playoffs: The top teams in each conference (the same as the nhl) will advance to the playoffs.

AriGold Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 We need a big name experienced guy like Ari to help! He's a gem! Appreciate the comment Swede, that being said I'm going to hold off on making my own fantasy league. I'm interested but while GML, FL and EHL are running I think it's enough for this fantasy section at this time. Once one falls apart I will likely be starting up my own league.

A defensive d-men is Kinda Worth nothing in pickup leagues for an example. I m into fantrax leagues since 3 years Yet and i can Tell u its pure fun.

Drewismyname Posted May 20, 2015 Author Share Posted May 20, 2015 I don't mind paying for it and accepting a few bucks on PayPal from those with an Abundance of money. Fantrax is way easier. No need for spreadsheets because it's all integrated. you can search nhl ufa players with ease. You can call up/ send down players without the commissioner if you choose as a leage. It's way easier. Me not eating out for a couple weeks is worth fantrax I can pay for it if we have a 20-25 team league confirmed and wanting to participate. Also injuries And recent player news is displayed on your home page. Also I believe drafts are done through fantrax too. No need to have ten different spreadsheets bookmarked because it is all in your fantrax login. Cap, contract years remaining, draft picks. Pickuphockey leagues are awesome and more hardcore. Way more management work with spreadsheets and manual player movement. I would probably not have the time to do everything manually and feel that it doesn't take away so much of the skill factor to mAke it any less fun. I love the pickuphockey league I'm in currently and will be in it until it dissolves. I admire the commissioners dedication to run a manual league. but as far as running a league goes for me, I'd rather pay the money and use fantrax. Thats just me.

Well you'd be the commissioner, whatever you want to do is what will happen. Not going to make you use pickuphockey, it's just that I think you'd lose out on a lot of quality GM's because of this. Good luck if you do indeed end up pursuing this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drewismyname Posted May 21, 2015 Author Share Posted May 21, 2015 I'm going to ask a few of my friends in real life to join. Those of you who are interested should pick a team and send me a pm with your email and I'll send you an invite to Fantrax. Oh and don't worry about the fantrax payment. Maybe we will talk about pitching in for a prize for the winner at a later date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
