Games start Wednesday. I would prefer a 7/8P start time. Since the HHL drafts tend to go for three or so hours, and I have an early wake time, I just can't do anything later. If everyone else is fine with it, then keep the time (obviously), but I won't be able to make it.

HHL isn't that long, is it? It's LSL that has the Never Ending Draft.

Twin Cinema
Jun 1, 2006



Playoffs are no big deal,

iirc HHL takes forever because the auction draft timer starts at 30 seconds and counts down. When someone makes a new bid once it gets below 10 seconds, the timer goes back to 10 seconds. So, essentially, the first few rounds take a long time, because people let the counter run down to 1, then make a bid, which resets the clock, then someone else lets the counter run down to 1, then makes a bid, which resets the clock again (and repeat to infinity).

Well, I may have exaggerated with people continually letting it get down to 1 (usually it'll go down to 3-5 seconds as people consider placing another bid), but it definitely happens a lot in the first few rounds. Once the big boys are gone, there doesn't seem to be as much of a frenzy.

Just do what I did the first year when I won. Show up, spend 90% of your cap on Stamkos and Malkin, and then go afk until it's down to 1 dollar bids.

I'm exaggerating a little I didn't spend every last dime on those guys but yes. It was the first season so people were a little leery of spending a lot of money I guess since nobody was used to the format so I left the draft with (iirc), Malkin, Stamkos, and Lundqvist on my team. It didn't take too much doing to craft a reasonable team apart from those guys and do really well.

e: Just checked and I had Giroux too. Can't remember what I paid for him. I think I lucked out and got him relatively cheap and then he had his 90 point season. This was back in 2011.

ee: first seven picks that draft:

1. (7) Steven Stamkos
(TB - C)
$109
2. (8) Henrik Lundqvist
(NYR - G)
$100
3. (19) Evgeni Malkin
(Pit - C,RW)
$126
4. (35) Ryan Miller
(Van - G)
$74
5. (47) Jordan Staal
(Car - C,LW)
$29
6. (75) Claude Giroux
(Phi - C,RW)
$46
7. (199) Michael Grabner
(Tor - RW)
$5

after that I paid 1$ for everybody else :v:

do you care if it's not a goon? I can ask one of my buddies who has been looking for a (relatively) serious fantasy hockey league

also, has someone not joined yet? I count 14 people in the league

A non goon would be fine. Twin Cinema's buddy has been a good member of the league for like 3 seasons now I think.

And yeah it's at 14, but we were at 16 last year (I have one other person willing to join but I'm holding off on his invite until we have a 16th).
