How To Play:Most of you are familiar with the game already, but those that aren't, here's a quick rundown.
More info at
https://help.yahoo.com/kb/fantasy-hockey We use Yahoo Fantasy. It has an app for both IOS / Android. Naturally also works with any internet browser.
Format is
Head-To-Head, meaning each
Game Week you play against another team. One Game Week is Monday through Sunday (first week is the exception because of the Global Series).
You can switch players up to 4 times during Game Week if needed. We use the
Waiver system to eliminate the speed match of grabbing star players that are dropped off (Top Waiver turn = guaranteed pick).
In addition to Waivers and picking from
Free Agency (rest of the available players) you can also trade with other teams. No brain dead trades please. Lets keep it fair for everyone.
The player with the most category wins out of their pair wins the Game Week. Even if you lose a week, but keep it close, you still get valuable points.
Don't lose hope if you hit a cold streak. You can turn the tables with a few blowout wins. Think carefully when you manage your team to cover as many categories as possible.
Scoring categories are copied from our 2020 league and are as follows:
Forwards/Defensemen Stat Categories: Goals (G), Assists (A), Plus/Minus (+/-), Powerplay Points (PPP), Shots on Goal (SOG), Faceoffs Won (FW), Hits (HIT), Blocks (BLK)
Goaltenders Stat Categories: Wins (W), Goals Against Average (GAA), Saves (SV), Save Percentage (SV%)
We draft the following positions: C, C, LW, LW, RW, RW, D, D, D, D, Util, G, G, BN, BN, BN, BN, BN
BN is Bench, your reserve of players you can switch in/out when they are playing/not playing.
Util means Utility. You can place any skater there. Think carefully.
We'll have
3 IR+ spots for smaller day-to-day type of injuries,
1 regular IR spot and
1 NA (Not Active, meaning not in playing roster) spot.You can add an injured player straight to your free IR slot, but to play him you need to drop someone to make room for him.
Each week you are required to start a goalie in 3 games. Doesn't matter if he gets pulled / injured, it will count as a start.
Up to you how to continue after the 3 starts are up.
If you fail to make the 3 starts, your goalie stats are auto-loss for the week.Don't forget to set your lineups! I believe Yahoo still resets your predetermined lineups if you make any roster moves, so don't forget to check if they've been reset.
Every team faces each other at least once. There's not enough game weeks for everybody to face each other 2 times.
Schedule was randomized once, so it isn't based on entry time to the league. I have no control over who plays who and how many times.
Regular season winner and runner-up get a small bonus prize for being top seeds.
8 Teams will make it to the playoffs starting 13th of March. Tiebreaker is highest seed.
Teams making it to the 2nd round are in the fg. 2nd round losers will play for 3rd place.
Finals will conclude on 2nd of April.We won't play during the last week of regular season, as some teams might rest their stars, which would affect the finals week.
I took a break during the covid years. I just didn't wanna play with that bs going on.
I hope it doesn't happen again and we can have some interesting playoffs.
