Fantasy NHL Hockey League

[mikebiacsi]

As we are nearing the start of the the new hockey season i just wanted to know if there is going to be a fantasy hockey league this year and if so who sets it up?

I just had a look over at Yahoo sports and you can now create and join leagues for the upcoming season.

It's still too early to create one. The preseason hasn't even started yet. It doesn't start for another 3 weeks.

we will be having an official league here. stay tuned.

[R-Flex]

The Champ will be ready!

[BMac]

I'll be here to take my rightful throne from R-Flex :p

Can't wait guys.

[bayrider]

I'm in.

Someone PM once things get set up because for some reason I never venture to the Fantasy section.

I'd consider joining but I'd end up picking a lot of Leafs out of loyalty and then I'd lose really badly.

C'mon now. You may be loyal to the Laffs, but wouldn't you rather have Staal, Crosby, Ovechkin, Jagr etc on the same team!

This is the time of year when Leafs fans are sure that the Leafs will win the cup. It usually fades (for me) by Christmas.

Signed up! Five Holes is the name, stick side to backhand five hole is my game.

that makes one of you.

[BroChaos Veteran]

sweet! 10 teams. i think thats more than last year.

[Fred Derf Veteran]

Yeah, I signed up. I had never seen the Yahoo avatar system before. It was kinda neat.

[Fred Derf Veteran]

It seems that we need an even number of teams for the draft? Is that correct? If so we'll need one more person to join in the next 5 days.

I created a customzied draft list that didn't favour Leafs players THAT much. I mean, it's hard enough to find many in the top 192.

I guess I'll also abuse my powers and pin this thread. I mean, it should be pinned anyway, right?

hey guys, think we could bump the draft up an hour or 2?

[X@vier]

don't forget to take it easy on the newbies :blush:

We still need 1 more person to join the league

So, do you guys think it would be possible to move the draft time an hour or two ahead to 10PM ET, 7PM PT?

Is there anybody who played last year that didn't sign up this year?

How long does the draft take to complete?
