2020 FFA NHL Playoff Pool (1 Viewer)

[Aaron Rudnicki]

I'm up for doing this again, but not sure exactly how it's going to go.

For example, do the play-in games count so we have 24 NHL teams to select from? Or do we just plan to start for the actual playoffs with 16 teams per usual?

Any other changes we should make?

Please check in here if you want in, and then we can figure out some rules/guidelines.

Include the play-in games. How often do you get an opportunity to draft fantasy hockey for a 24-team NHL playoff tournament?

 

[Zegras11]

What are the rules on the site?  16 or 24?

I can’t seem to confirm one way or the other.

in. basing all decisions on my performance in NHL '20. 

 

[Capella]

What’s the $$ and the rules? 

 

[zoonation]

In

 

[Aaron Rudnicki]

What’s the $$ and the rules? 

Usually $20 or $30 per person. Winner takes most of the pot. 
 

Draft 12 guys with at least 2 d-men and 1 team goalie. Pretty basic scoring with points awarded for goals, assists, wins, etc.

Can I take all lightning players?

If they fall to you. It’s a pretty standard fantasy draft. 

 

[Zegras11]

@zazale  is in also.

Ok. I’ll need to text picks during the work day 

 

[Aaron Rudnicki]

mostly try to knock it out live in one night on here.

 

[Thorn]

My availability isn't great but if I can do the draft, I'm in

 

[rockaction]

Thanks for the mention, but I don't think I'm in. Love this and the discussion, though. I hope we get all the hockey we can handle soon enough. 

 

[Dickie Dunn]

So in.

I'm good to draft any time. Tonight or Friday night would be tougher, but doable for me.

 

[Golf Guy 69]

I'm in even if I auto draft.  Seems to be more profitable that way too.

 

[Golf Guy 69]

Friday draft would be great so I don't spend drunken hours in the cydy thread in an ifight.  Some things will never change.

 

[Northern Voice]

In depending on draft day/time. 

 

[Ghost Rider]

let’s go, chodes. this thing starts on Saturday.

@Ghost Rider

Appreciate the invite, man, but I don't do fantasy hockey.   I tried it once and it was not for me. 

 

[Bill Brasky]

what do we have, 9 or 10?  where is everyone?

 

[Thorn]

Chode convention?

 

[Aaron Rudnicki]

a lot of people have said they have tentative availability so not sure when to schedule. I think it might make sense to just go with the 16 playoff teams and try to get more people on this.

 

[Dickie Dunn]

Using all 24 teams definitely would add some intrigue and strategy that we don’t normally have. But it probably makes more sense to wait a week or so and go with the 16 and do it right.

We might need to tentatively plan for Monday 8/10 or Tuesday 8/11, because I don’t know how quickly they are going to try to turn around and start the Round of 16.

this is a good idea to set up a tenative date for it so we can plan schedules around it.

 

[Aaron Rudnicki]

how many people are able/interested to draft tonight? I can do it but don't have time to chase people down.

 

[Golf Guy 69]

In, all canes then auto draft.  

 

[Zegras11]

@zazale and I each for a team.  When would it start?

 

[Bill Brasky]

I can draft

 

[Aaron Rudnicki]

@zazale and I each for a team.  When would it start?

what's good? 8pm Central?

 

[Aaron Rudnicki]

not sure we have enough to pull this off.

may be better to do something different this year like drafting teams.

 

[Bill Brasky]

weak turnout for this year is weird.  scrap it I guess?

 

[Zegras11]

8 of us?  2 teams each?

ETA: We should give Cav first pick so he doesn't cry.

[Northern Voice]

We could do the nhl bracket challenge at least?
