Any rookies?

Don't think I have any on the list. What's the rookie definition?

2 or less years of 22 games or less is a rookie.

No, none in your team.

OK, so we're all back and ready to go.

Get those keepers in please - cutoff time for this is 5.00pm AEST on Tuesday afternoon Oct 1st. Please set them using the option inside Yahoo Fantasy Hockey.

I'll then go in and set the keepers up, including adjusting for the 3 trades we've seen so far (as above)

Mega-Snakes GM still working the phones. BigFooty KHL Cup winning captain John Tavares available on the cheap. Thanks for your service, John.

I can't recall, does Yahoo ever show the proper draft list prior to entering the actual draft? I love the fact it says McDavid is available, but I'd rather be realistic.

All set, so yes you can see who is available

 

[two blue tiger]

For those who did not have the full 11 keepers, I've put placeholder players in those keeper slots (the last players ranked on Yahoo at about rank 1200). After we've drafted, you'll need to drop them and select other players. It's a free for all after the draft though, so I suggest doing this immediately after we've finished drafting.

 

[Citizen Erazed]

Hmm, I don't pay too much attention to the pre-season injury statuses, but maybe I should have for Demko. Whoops!

 

[catters078]

Draft night!

 

[two blue tiger]

Fun draft. Will enjoy seeing what young Lane Hutson can do for the Habs as he makes his way into the league.

Enjoy the season

Stay active!!

 

[Citizen Erazed]

Pretty happy with the draft result. Feel I have upgraded a couple of my keepers already.

 

[PalaceGun]

Byfield couldn’t be happier being a new Mega-Snake.

Got my money on Alfie this year - very strong team.

So did those NJ v Buffalo games count towards their regular season standings?

Yep, are regular season games

Top notch Mega-Snakes debut for Samuel Montembeault.

Have had a request from Teal Thunder that I alter the league settings to include 1 x Not Active (NA) as a player rosteroption. Would mean you could stash a player there if they were sent down to the AHL and deemed as NA, or were deemed NA because of suspension.

Personally I'm not against this.

Thoughts?

Haven't heard anything, so have gone ahead and made this change. 1 x N/A position now available in roster.

I could live to 100 years old and never understand why yahoo resets one’s squad for the week after one makes a player acquisition. Not only resets it but puts one’s best ranked players on the bench.

Indeed. Surely not a tough bug to fix........

 

[Citizen Erazed]

Georgiev might be the worst draft pick OF ALL TIME. Time to go buddy. He is diabolical.

Looking like a juggernaut at this stage after taking the defending champ to the cleaners this latest round.

Austin with an “O” or bust.
