i can do wednesday evening anytime.

[djfear51 0]

Yeah, Wednesday should work for me

[gobears 0]

As long as that is PST it would be fine - I don't get home from work until 6 or so

[thehammer11 0]

I am pretty sure that is 7:30EST.I wouldn't be able to make it until quite a bit later, but I'm fine if I miss it.Here's my input:- I'm in favor of keeping the league, but I really don't have time to play any role in running the league. I put a decent amount of time over the past few years to keep this thing going...and that was with the automated site. There will be work to go around if we're doing this in a forum. This is a super busy year for me, so I'd really appreciate it if someone (or a group of people) took it over.- I only want to keep it going if we can carry over our rosters and farm teams. I'm OK with minor rule changes or format changes, but I want to keep my prospects.- The sooner we can start, the better. However, it's going to be really tough to find a draft day that works for everyone.

[PhilBluff 0]

First thing, I can't make it tomorrow, cause Leafs vs. Pens tickets fell into my lap.Second, I can put in work for this league if you guys want, I really want this league to go on. I could also use some help as well. If you guys are fine with it, I would move with it.I am also in favor of keeping teams/farms, as thats the whole point right. The forum/spreadsheet format would work best on short notice, not as fun, but keeps the league going.I'll be on MSN all day tomorrow, til 4:30 est. If any of you wanna discuss things.

[mrdannyg 274]

Sadly, I may also not be around tonight to discuss.However, if any are concerned about keeping the league going, we're working just fine in the FCHL. Yes, a few people have had to take on some extra work, but it isn't dozens of hours a week or anything. Luckily, we can always sponge off that work if we need to! Good examples for the kind of work that'd need to be done (a comprehensive spreadsheet, forums for standings, rosters, transactions, etc) are already done.

[coesillian 0]

If we we had a dedicated forum I bet a couple of us would already have had this going. I can put some time in to get it running.what's the status of the forum...can someone from the FCHL possibly hook us up?

[Zach6668 513]

Steve made the FCHL forum at http://activeboard.com/. Don't know why you guys haven't done that yet. It's free and fast, apparently.

[mrdannyg 274]

Someone made a forum, and a few of us signed up. I think others are in the same boat as me, that the administrators haven't activated our passwords yet!If there's a problem with that one, I can always set up a new board when I get home tonight.

[SBriand 4]

Yeah, I can get a board running in less than 5 minutes. Let me know if you need any help.

http://fchl2.activeboard.com/ ... Register now.Thanks for the link.

[djfear51 0]

Sweet, thanks Brian. I think we should just use that forum. We should just scrap the other one. I was admin for the other one and all users were activated but for whatever reason it wasn't working to start threads and post. I also didn't have the time to look into it or fix; the last few weeks have been kinda crazy.I'm very much still interested in continuing with the league even if it's run through forum/spreadsheets. However, I don't really wanna be the one having to run it or get it all started. I'm glad everyone is willing to help out and are still interested in moving on. I will be willing to help out with the work throughout the year though for sure and pull my weight. Sorry if I missed the meeting tonight, I couldn't make it afterall.

Great stuff guys for getting things picked up again. I'm sure you won't think me overstepping to post in the FCHL to see if anyone is interested just in case they don't read here!

[coesillian 0]

I don't mind at all,I think the 3 maybe's left that we haven't heard from will stick with it as well. We'll leave them some time, I sent a pm to hammer, but if they don't come through then it will be good to have a back up plan.InCrazy Dicers - CoesillianSnipe McNasty - PhilbluffdEvs BamFs - DevThe London Royalty - rinswunStellar Reign - DjfearCrunch Bunch - Go Bearsbroadway revival - UntiltedMaybeThe North Stars - Hammer - JerThe Fisty McGavin Project - DeweyPossible replacementsmrdannyg -CONFIRMED!sbriand - CONFIRMED!deweys friend?oh ya, welcome dudes!

BUMPI've decided to give up my team afterall. That is, assuming there's someone who wants to take it.

Hammer, that's a pretty good team.

I started grad school in August so I'm now getting a better idea of the work involved and it looks like I'm just not going to be able to dedicate the time that this league deserves.dEvs BamFs Player Games Goals Assists FCHL PTS 9 -10 10 -11 11 -12 12 -13 13 -14 14 -15 15-16 Vanek, Thomas 71 28 25 40.5 8.5 9.25 10 10.75 FA Boyes, Brad 82 14 28 28 7.5 8.25 9 9.75 FA Carter, Jeff 74 33 28 47 4.5 5 5.5 6 6.5 FA Kessel, Phil 70 30 25 42.5 3.5 3.5 3.5 3.5 3.5 FA Drury, Chris 77 14 18 23 2.5 2.5 2.5 FA Staal, Jordan 82 21 28 35 1.5 1.5 1.5 1.5 1.5 FA Zubrus, Dainius 51 10 17 18.5 1 1 FA Hejduk, Milan 56 23 21 33.5 1.5 1.5 FA Bertuzzi, Todd 82 18 26 31 1.5 FA Sturm, Marco 76 22 15 29.5 1.75 1.75 FA Rolston, Brian 80 20 17 28.5 1.75 1.75 FA Samsonov, Sergei 72 14 15 21.5 0.5 0.5 0.5 FA Fedotenko, Ruslan 80 11 19 20.5 0.75 RFA Ladd, Andrew 82 17 21 27.5 0.75 0.75 0.75 0.75 FA Armstrong, Colby 79 15 14 22 0.25 RFA Svatos, Marek 54 7 4 9 0.5 0.5 0.5 0.5 0.5 FA Nolan, Owen 73 16 17 24.5 0.25 RFA Lidstrom, Nicklas 82 9 40 29 3.5 RFA Meszaros, Andrej 81 6 11 11.5 1 1 1 1 FA Klesla, Rostislav 26 2 6 5 1 RFA Hamhuis, Dan 78 5 19 14.5 1 1 FA Goligoski, Alex 69 8 29 22.5 0.75 0.75 0.75 0.75 0.75 FA Koistinen, Ville 17 1 3 2.5 0.5 0.5 0.5 FA Bergeron, Marc-Andre 60 13 21 23.5 0.75 RFA Salo, Sami 68 9 19 18.5 0.25 0.25 FA Van Ryn, (Buyout) 0 0 0 0 0.5 0.5 FA Goalies Team GA 10-Sep 11-Oct 12-Nov 13-Dec 13/14 14/15 Carolina Hurricanes 0 1.5 1.75 2 2.25 2.5 FA New York Islanders 0 1 1 1 1 1 FA Farm Team Player Team Salary Year Drafted Round Hall, Taylor F 2 2010 1 Glennie, Scott F 1 2009 2 Eberle, Jordan F 1 2009 2 Tangradi, Eric F 1 2009 3 Kuznetsov, Evgeny F 1 2010 2 Palushaj, Aaron F 0.5 2009 5 Kugryshev, Dmitri F 0.5 2009 6 Hedman, Victor D 2 2009 1 Despres, Simon D 1 2010 3 Grant, Alex D 0.5 2009 7 Gardiner, Jake D 0.5 2009 4 2010 Round 4 dEvs BamFs Round 5 dEvs BamFs 10-Sep Salary Cap: $50.75 Committed Salary: $50.25 Players Signed: 27 2011 Round 1 dEvs BamFs Round 1 Snipe McNasty Round 2 dEvs BamFs Round 3 dEvs BamFs Round 4 dEvs BamFs Round 5 dEvs BamFs 11-Oct Salary Cap: $65.00 Committed Salary: $44.50 Players Signed: 20 2012 Round 1 dEvs BamFs Round 2 dEvs BamFs Round 3 dEvs BamFs Round 4 dEvs BamFs Round 5 dEvs BamFs 12-Nov Salary Cap: $65.00 Committed Salary: $39 Players Signed: 14

[mrdannyg 274]

I'll take thehammer's team!I hope once the league gets rolling you guys will reconsider. Jay and the others in the FCHL can vouch for just how little work it is. One person needs to put in a couple hours a week keeping the roster spreadsheet updated, but that's about it.Everyone else can devote 5 minutes a few times a week to submitting a lineup.

[SBriand 4]

You can still create a yahoo league to help set lineups. In teh FCHL we created a yahoo league, manually entered all rosters. We set it up that for 6 F, 4D, 1 UTI, 1G, 16 BN. On a game night each team sets their lineup using the UTI spot for their OT player. Whichever position that player is you leave one spot empty. For example. You dress 5 F, 4D, 1G, 1UTI. Yahoo can be set to keep score of the offense with 1pt for G and .5 for A. The only thing someone has to keep score of is Goalies since you can't use teams on yahoo but figuring the goalie score is easy. I tend to do the scoring at the end of the game night or in the morning and it takes me less than 5 minutes.
