2024-25 HFBoards Yahoo Fantasy Premier Keeper League - Draft Sun Sept 29th 6pm PST

[CRDragon]

Anyone interested in goalie?

Binnington or Ullmark available

In my post I had made Sept 29th 5pm as a draft date...for some reason thinking Oct 4th was NHL start date. Anyways, Oct 8th is when the season starts, so we could draft on Sunday Oct 6th 5pm instead.

Would that work better for most? We'll also have more time to find a manager in this case.

The season starts with 2 games in Europe on October 4th no?! Think we have to draft before that otherwise it’s a bit unfair to those with Sabres or Devils keepers.

I guess I missed the vote but I say Sunday, Oct. 1.

Time to check in! Please either respond to this post or react to it.

the vote you see is from last year. That is one reason I am suggesting a new thread so we do not get confused

I have one request for drafting times. Nothing after 8pm.

 

[Canucker]

If anyone is looking to upgrade some keepers and willing to move some picks I'm open to discuss...

Available - Boeser, Hyman, Scheifele, Kadri, Georgiev, Andersen, etc...pretty much anyone if the price is right.

Ah so I am not going crazy and it is indeed Oct 4th. In that case it would be Sunday, Sept 29th

 

[BrockH]

Assuming nothing has changed from what past me decided:

Keepers:
F: Matthews (C), Marchand (LW), Marner (RW)
D: Bouchard, Montour, Carlsson, Hughes (R)
G: Bobrovsky
Rookies: Cooley (C), Hughes (D)

I also vote nothing after 8pm PST (11pm for me)...personally I'd prefer a 6 or 7pm start.

Have we got a replacement for nameless1 yet?

"going" vs "are" is the debate at this time

 

[VanillaCoke]

nvm who cares

 

[Canucks LB]

I forgot, did we have any rule changes this year? Like extra playing spots for example?

 

[CRDragon]

When was the draft day vote idk how I missed it

So draft on Thanksgiving last year and middle of end of summer long weekend this year...?
Seems intentional and unnecessary, what happened to drafting on day that's convenient and not extra busy.

Very intentional if you put it. No one responded when I was asking for suggestions. The fact is the start of the season is creeping up quickly so it'll have to be done.

 

[CRDragon]

None has been discussed if I recall correctly

No one has applied. Any suggestions?

I had suggested the idea of adding more keepers but nobody seemed keen on the idea.

I would love that idea honestly

 

[CRDragon]

We had decreased the number of keepers before, it'd be reversing that. Could start discussion and make it in place for next year if it's voted. I am not keen on it based on the fact we had decreased it before.

Steps to get the change in motion.
Make an post outlining the proposed changes and have two members second and third the suggestion to bring it to a vote.

Two years in a row the draft is on the worst possible days cannot be mandatory or necessary, I'd think the initial suggestions would be not on the busiest family days.

The league can't pick literally any other days.....??

Always complaining but never any suggestions...suggest a date?

 

[VanillaCoke]

Literally any other days than the busiest ones seems like the most obvious starting point ..

As of now only you're saying it's the busiest day.

Honestly, not worth it unless the discussion warranted the effort and it doesn't appear to.

With regard to the draft date, I'm virtually open to any evening and almost anytime on a weekend...so whatever works best for the consensus.

 

[Canucks LB]

I am open anytime after 5:15 PM PST
Ideally not on the weekend, but its fine

 

[VanillaCoke]

As of now only you're saying it's the busiest day.

Ok specifically Any day(s) non long weekend, non stat or observed holiday, nor days that could be reasonably construed as differentiated from the average days/week.
For example valentines day, back to school, family day, Halloween night, etc would all be non ideal draft (league) days.

To begin I'd suggest any days in September or October that are not on the September long weekend, nor occur after the first game(s) of the regular season, so perhaps a weekday not including September twenty seventh or thirtieth.

Hope that clears up your confusion and is recalled for future, thanks again
