Once we have 12 teams, I'll give us an extra day in case anyone wants to update their rankings, then I'll run the draft.

We're up to 8 teams so far...where the hell is Team Pumpy??

Just give me all the Sabres players from the past few seasons, including Havlat Pyat and Dumont, that should do me.

Setting up this draft was rediculous tough. So many good quality players and so few true super stars/sure things.

When was Havlat in Buffalo?? Maybe during the lockout season--he vacationed in Buffalo?

We are at 11 teams...so bsak, that last one is yours, unless you've already claimed one. Someone needs to represent the Flyers.

If I set the draft to ready Monday morning, is that enough time for everyone? Sooner? Later?

Also, anyone with any thoughts on the scoring categories, I'm open to any changes.

Too many offensive categories, IMO. In a perfect world, I'd get rid of PPG and PPA and just use PPP ... ditto SHG and SHA. Really, short-handed points are rare enough that it's kinda silly to track them at all. My preference would be to get rid of SH points altogether, but if we're going to use them, at least combine them into SHP. I'm assuming FW = Faceoffs won, which has never struck me as a great fantasy stat, so I wouldn't mind seeing that go as well.

But that's just me...I'll roll with whatever the masses want.

I have no problem combining PPP and SHP.

Faceoff wins...I just added to have a different category. We all know (relatively) who the point producers will be, this just adds a little more strategy to it.

But, same as above, everyone else wants to drop it, I am fine with taking them out.

I'd like to join. Let's get the MetroHo players in here!

Also, I have an off-board friend who loves hockey but has never played fantasy hockey before. Would you guys be willing to let him join as well?

Maybe a few switches-- from Roto to H2H, adjusted the starting positions a little.

We can switch back to roto, eliminate positions, add/remove scoring categories if anyone has a problem with them.

Just joined. I like the Roto idea since I'm stuck with head to head in football and baseball. Of course, it's not my call.

I'm open to either...go with a majority rule.

I can change any of the settings up until I hit the draft button.

I've set at 14 teams, but can adjust that down (or up, which seems unlikely).

Hey guys, if any of you are interested I've got a league up that I was hoping to get 10 local owners for, but with the draft being tonight I'd like to fill up the ranks a bit.

Settings will be staying as is, and as mentioned, the draft is tonight (and a bit late for the eastern members), but we've got a couple that are auto drafting already, so that wouldn't put you too far behind if you're willing to go that route.

Our draft tonight starts at 8:30 local (mountain) time, so I think that'd be 10:30 for you. I can't imagine it'll take much more than an hour though (hopefully).

Ok, I may be there. Can you post again around 10 PM if you still need owners? If I see that you do, I'll join if I'm around.
