Beary Sweet Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 16 hours ago, somethingvery said: Looking forward to a tough first round against you @apollo; I wish you the best of luck! Funny they're matched up irl as well and it can really go either way especially what has happened in the past like last year for instance (Nashville over Anaheim). While here in Puck, it doesn't look like it'll be close on paper but it can really go either way especially if there's some upsets this playoffs so @apollo there's still hope. Best of luck to you both though. @somethingvery President's Trophy winning Blackhawks look like a force to be wreckoned with but with how the playoffs go and how it's unpredictable, you just never know. That's why you watch and play to win the game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Mind Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 The Draft Lottery will not be held by the commissioners, but rather by the NHL. Each GM will be matched with a real-life team based on their placement in the standings. (I.e. @Tigs Capitals and the RL Avalanche, @Captain Azzy with RL Vegas, etc.) This way GM's can watch the lottery and see if they win. As it stands, this is who each GM is matched with: @Tigs - Colorado @Drive-By Body Pierce - Vancouver @Captain Azzy - Vegas @LilBurrows - Arizona @Salter via @Stamkos - New Jersey @morrissex95 - Buffalo @Salter - Detroit @maroe - Dallas @Drewismyname - Florida @Phil The Thrill via @Mike Vanderhoek - Los Angeles @gmen81 - Carolina @Bombastik der Teutone - Winnipeg @oldnews via @Herberts Vasiljevs - Philadelphia @thejazz97 - Tampa Bay @gmen81 via @canuckledraggin - New York Islanders *Order could change after fantrax finalizes standings* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Mind Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 Fantrax won't be finalizing it's stats until Sunday. This means it's possible for the standings to change, including the playoff teams. These are the current matchups, but will be changed if the standings change on fantrax: @somethingvery vs @apollo @oldnews vs @Blue Jay 22 @Jaku vs @pmalina @Beary Sweet vs @Tylez @Nail vs @Phil The Thrill @Master Mind vs @D-Money @inane vs @Watermelons @wallstreetamigo vs @Canuck Surfer Players not under contract, and those who were picked up from waivers post deadline, will be removed from playoff rosters. Special thanks to @Captain Azzy for the simple yet effective draft format, and to @somethingvery for putting up the playoff pool! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure why that happened WSA (I tried a bunch of changes to my roster in GM mode and wasn't able to replicate it); I have added a defenseman in the open spot. Please let a commish know if it happens again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please let a commish know if it happens again. Awesome thanks bud much appreciated. I think I dropped a guy to the minors directly from an active slot and clicked apply before I moved someone from the reserve/minors to fill it. Then it wouldn't let me move any players anywhere. Just came up blank when clicking on move player for anyone. I just figured it was some league conspiracy. I am playing Boston after all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless @Drive-By Body Pierce doesn't get a top 3 pick at the very least... then I'm going full of tin foil hat and exposing the NHL for the corrupt old boys club it is :D Really hoping Tampa doesn't win it... a) doesn't bode well for us IRL and b ) @thejazz97 has already sewered me enough in trades... this would be more salt in the wound lol!

That's too bad, thank you for your time as GM. Does this mean AGM @Vanuckles will take over, or what is the situation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
somethingvery Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 For those of you who are wondering where the playoff set up is in Fantrax (it won't be on our regular season league), please go to "My Leagues" in Fantrax and select "CDC Puck Playoffs 2016/17". Those who are in a playoff series will have to set your lineups. As posted before, waivers are inactive and the cap is not in effect for signed players. Maximum player positions still apply but as players get knocked out of the playoffs, you will not be required to ice minimum positions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wallstreetamigo Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 So we don't have to have a 23 man roster? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D-Money Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 Love the "Consolation" bracket for non-playoff teams. There's quite a collection of top players who are playoff-bound IRL that will not be participating in the CDC Puck playoffs... C: Matthews, Toews, Coyle, Kadri, Turris, Galchenyuk, Backes, Dubinsky, Komarov, RNH LW: Ovechkin, Gaudreau, Forsberg, Parise, Marleau, Hartnell RW: Kessel, Pastrnak, JVR, Stone, Gagner LD: Werenski, Niskanen, Parayko, Lindholm, Sekera, Maata, Jay-Bo RD: Burns, Karlsson, Subban, Shattenkirk, Krug, Stone G: Dubnyk, Talbot, Murray, Rinne, Elliott, Fleury Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
