Up to 20 teams, nice!fawning deference posted:What about taking them from a five year period? Basically choosing their five year prime. Because honestly choosing between Gretzky and his 212 pts or his 215 pts seems like a needless particularity Works for me. T-Bone fucked around with this message at 05:13 on Mar 18, 2020 |

It's gonna be so interesting to see what the first round is. Beyond the top 5 or 10 it's gonna be a whole lot of picks of "these are more or less equally some of the best players of all-time, just pick your favorite"

Hypothetically, would we able to draft someone like Kharlamov or Tretiak, or would that be suicide because they couldn't play in the NHL?

According to the OP, you can pick someone if they played in an international competition post-67 Are coaches gonna be a separate draft or mixed in with playeds

So, since I’m an idiot , help me understand two things: 1. When does the draft start ? 2. Are there “games,” and if so how are “games” determined ?

EHM will be difficult unless someone wants to literally create an original roster (which honestly if this thing lasts 18 loving months might happen). e: 7 spots!

Strictly speaking we don’t need to limit or have a minimum number of teams, given we’re doing random historical teams.

True, do we want to do a cutoff for signups? Maybe Sunday? e: although we're down to 5 spots, we can probably fill that

Since we're at 31 teams already, a Sunday cutoff sounds good. So let's try to start Monday morning if that works for everyone. It sounds like Hoot is going to make the spreadsheet? e: I won't cut signups at 32 teams since this is an all-time draft and there are plenty of players, we'll just leave it open until the end of Sunday and whoever wants to join can join.
