I'll have to make sure my roster pick list is up to par. I'll probably be out fishing. If you could set the pick time around 8:30 that would make it more likely for me to make it.

Everything is set. Please look over the league settings so you know the scoring setting I'm not going to make any changes this late.

Sounds good Dave, get them signed up. Lets make this a competitive league.

Biff, I like everything in the rules except the 20 max. roster changes.  Everytime someone has an injury, and you have to make a move to fill the spot, you use up a roster move.  Heck the Canucks had more than 20 roster moves last year.  I think it should be set at 50 like last year, with no max games per postion.  That worked pretty good.

Just show up at draft time, when it is your turn to select a player, you do so.  Pretty easy.  You'll figure it out no problem. :)

Ok, just make sure you guys get logged in. We're starting in less than 5 min.

Go to the league page then click on the draft central tab. On the right hand side there will be a big blue box that says 'launch draft application'. Click on this and it will take you into the draft room.

Just a reminder to everyone that is participating to remember to set your daily roster changes. If you don't have time to check on a daily basis you can make the changes for a few days in advance.

How do you put players on injury reserve?  I saw an IR option at beginning of draft....

If the guy has the letters IR in red beside his name then he is injury reserve eligible. To put him on the IR drag him down to the bottom of your roster and an IR spot will appear.
