Gator Posted July 17, 2023 Author Share Posted July 17, 2023 (edited) 9 spots taken in less than 48 hours! if the rate keeps up we may have dates announced for the FANTASY DRAFT! Not exactly sure how I'm going to approach the 22/23 drafts (joint or seperate), but we'll figure something out to make it an enjoyable process. Also debating on putting Bedard into the fantasy draft (lmk your thoughts on this) Draft orders will be done through some kind of random selection process. Both drafts will be a "snake" style draft, and the prospects draft will be opposite order of the fantasy draft. (early ruling subject to change) I want to hear your opinions on how to approach the draft(s) to make it an enjoyable process for everyone. I'm open to any and all ideas.

(subject to change) https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1FvFgOBGGc1B9H-qCG9NF5j1h0Psomr8VkAXbJnVcYnY/edit?usp=drivesdk Teamsheet preview updated a bit. The trade history is something I want to keep longterm, but if I'm being honest the workload of that may become a bit overwhelming. The rest is for sure here to stay, but I'm not making any promises that I'll keep the trade history going over the long haul. Only time will tell. EDIT: Also if you have anything you'd like to see added to the team sheets lmk. Hoping to have all team sheets ready to go in about a week or so.

I thought that initially, but felt that would add a lot of rounds to what will already be a lengthy fantasy draft. Feel having 2 or 3 (Leaning towards 2) seperate drafts would be the most ideal. As I said I'm open to ideas though, so if others feel the same way it may be something I'll consider. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel if I combine them some GMs will lean too much 1 way. I want a good balance throughout the league, with all teams having a solid mix of NHL talent and prospects. I'm thinking between 30-40 rounds for the fantasy draft, and a 10 round 22/23 prospects draft. It's not set in stone yet, but that's the way I'm currently leaning.

Things will soon organically sort themselves into rebuilding and contending teams either way. Personally I think it would spice things up if teams can choose off the hop to go all-in for the here-and-now or all-out on prospects and youth to build for the future. 30-40 rounds not including prospects? What in tarnation? Edited July 18, 2023 by HighOnHockey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What in tarnation? 40 may be a bit too high, but 30-35 is likely where it'd fall. 23 man roster + 7-12 man AHL depth. May make it just 25-30 round when it's all said and done. Like I said, nothing set in stone yet. Things definitely will happen organically soon, but out of the gate I would like balance. If some GMs drop out after initial draft(s) I don't want the team(s) in shambles. I want them to be attractive destinations for a potential new GM if need be. Again nothing is set in stone, I'm just explaining my thoughts on why I feel the 2 seperate drafts may be the way to go. Could make it 1 draft up to 40-45 rounds and just limit the amount of unsigned prospects you can draft. That would essentially combine the 2 draft model and combine it into 1.. At the end of the day, I want this to be enjoyable experience for everyone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
