Anyone looking to do a repeat of last years fantasy hockey? I found the head to head league funner, and there was less drama with choosing the point system. I will "commission" the league, and supply everyone with the name and password for it. Lets see what the interest is like. Post your name if you'd sign up and find the time to keep your roster up. We need an even amount of people.
-
i am... just let me know how much... thanks..
-
I am in. Also I suggest making a maximum amount of waiver wire pickups.
-
All we did last year was donate a $10 fishing related item to the winner.
As for waiver moves i'll see how the rules go but i'm definatly in for that.
-
this will be my first fantasy draft so i will need a quick run down on it.... but yah the ten bucks of fishing stuff is fine..
-
Count me in as well. I would personally rather play in a points league. Maybe we can do both again?
I'd also vote on restricting the number of waiver wire moves.
-
I am in, just let that Dave guy enter lol
I think the head to head pool was fun, maybe we can set up two again, one fgor points one head to head

-
I think Biff is gonna take care of the points league and i'll run the head to head.
-
Sounds good. Just post the league id and password when you guys have it setup.
-
http://hockey.fantasysports.yahoo.com/league/fwr (http://hockey.fantasysports.yahoo.com/league/fwr) Should take you to the league site. If not the league# is 43299 And the password is "rodney", all in lower case without the quotations obviously.
There are ten spots so first come first served. I changed a few things. like i added saves for goalies and took away PPP and SHP. I also put a waiver limit on.
Live Draft happens SEPTEMBER 19th at 8:00PM
And please include your first name in your Team's name, ie: Dion's Steelheaders

Ok, points league is now up, here's the link: http://hockey.fantasysports.yahoo.com/league/fishingwithrod
League ID is 43045 and the password is "steelhead"
Draft time is Thu Sep 20 9:30pm MDT (Thats 8:30pm for all of you west coasters)
Here is the scoring system: G (4), A (4), +/- (1), PPP (4), GWG (4), SOG (.25), W (10), SHO (20)
I've used this system in the past before and it was recieved positivly. But if anyone would like anything changed I am willing to do it up 2 days before the draft. Just so that the number crunchers such as myself have enough time to prepare.
-
I don't like the max trade clause, and the minimal amount of bench players, but its your league.

Ok, I've added an additional 2 bench positions. I know this is latter than I had said I would change anything, but with only 4 people registered so far I figure our draft won't go that deep anyways.
To Rick, Jettabambino, Dave, Winston et al. First draft is tomorrow night, get registered.
-
OK I am in. Not expecting much this year though. I am not really that enthusiastic about it right now...perhaps that will change. :)

Is there any way to auto draft tonight ? I have a class that was re-scheduled and cant make it.
Is there any options to get any roster ?

If you don't show up it will automatically draft from your pre-draft ranking. So make sure its set before the 45-min predraft deadline.
-
it wont let me in... says i am not in the league...??? what time is the draft
-
The draft is in 20 min, and you will need the league ID and the password to get in. Just hit the custom league icon.
I just checked the head to head draft... the page says that we can't hold a draft if we have an odd number of teams, and we do have an odd numer of teams. We need another team people. Step right on up!!! :D
-
Where is Rick?
-
still cant get in.. it wants a yahoo id and i dont have one
i tried the ones listed but it dosent work... grrrr
-

ya you have to make new yahoo id to get it
-
ok it says i am in.. but the draft is at 8 30 now?
-
Ok so i had to switch the draft to "ready" and when i did it said it would compleate and auto-draft. Which i don't think we want. Give me a few minutes to see what is up. If now we will have to decide if we want auto draft or a delayed draft date
-
Ok, So i can either take a later Live Draft time or Autodraft tonight and we trade like crazy the next two weeks? You guys decide.
My vote goes to Live draft later. It will hopefully give us time to get more people and get all the kinks sorted out.
-
whats the difference.? i dont know what i am doing...lol
-
well i am going hunting soon so i dont know if i will be around.. but i dont mind either way..
-
well i am confused... it now ays its a day away... i guess a change has been made...not sure if i can make it tommroorw night.\
-
are we doing the Biff Chan and Dion pools both tonight ?
ready for both........
-
there are 2...huh... i registered for the one that says steelhead as the password... are we doing that tonight...
-
yeah i think the one we are for sure doing tonight has the draft countdown info. The other one has no draft time set. Does your yahoo pool screen have a live draft time ? Mine says 50min till draft
-
Next draft is tomorrow night. Get ready.
-
got class again cant make it. I am going to let it auto draft and hope for the best :(
Lots of trades in that league so it doesn't matter anyway......
-
So everyone knows. I just changed a few minor things. I am allowing for 6 bench positions instead of 8, and 2 Injured Reserves instead of 1. I also took away stat categories of SHG and SHA and replaced it with SHP. Pretty minor but if you have major problems contact me before the draft.
-
Wow, I totally missed the draft... but really like my team!! Imagine that!! ;D
-
So you guys know, the regular season has started. Games between the Kings and Ducks are being played in London right now. You are losing possible points.

I'm not.... but then again I only had 1 player playing anyways!! ;D
-
Remember to set your line-ups so the maximum amount of players are playing. If you need help doing so I can tell you how. You can set your roster a long way in advance if you like.
-
Dave so you know, there are limited waiver moves per season in both leagues. Don't run out and F yourself over.
I have also sent out a few trade proposals.

Yeah I know. I still have 42 left on the head to head and 15 or so left in the points. Was just tweaking the line up. So we'll see how that works for a bit. But man, you guys are killing me. I have only had 33 man games played compared to 40 plus for the rest of you guys!! ;D
-
can someone help me i have no idea what i am doing..

Don't ask me, I'm last in the points..... but hopefully not for long!! :D :D

Ok. First of all there is a list of Days at the top. go to the link that describes the day you would like to edit your roster. You can set your roster in advance for the whole season I'm pretty sure. After that you can scroll down and view your list of players. On the far left it shows the position, followed by the name of the player, then the opponent they face that day. Players can only collect you points while they play games. The categories in which they can gain points is listed in the far right of the table/chart. You have more players than needed to fill your "Game Day Roster". Those with the "BN" (BENCH) abbreviation on the left of their name will not gain you points for that day. Therefore you do not want players that play that day to be in the BN position (the bottom of the chart). There are separate charts for forwards/defensmen and goalies. If you need help moving your players around so that they are in a Playing position let me know. Pretty much all you have to do is click and hold the blue box and drag it to where ever turns yellow. Then click "submit changes" to save your position changes.

Dion, no chance at all getting Briere off me, but I sent you back a counter offer. :)

Just checked people max games played in the point league and realized that I forgot to tell people that I put a cap on games played.
Since no one knew or bothered to read the rules close enough I'm just going to take get rid of it and hope people will not start playing the free agent pool. Plus I'm in third place with significantly fewer games played then everyone else, once I turn it up another notch you guys will get a whoopin for sure.
