Hello, and welcome to the fantasy hockey thread for the 2022-2023 NHL season, where hopefully every loving player won't be on IR with Covid.

Websites to Play On:
Yahoo! Sports: http://hockey.fantasysports.yahoo.com/
ESPN: http://games.espn.go.com/frontpage/hockey
CBC: http://hockeypool.cbc.ca/cbc/hnicp12/notice
CBS: http://fantasynews.cbssports.com/fantasyhockey

I think almost everyone uses Yahoo for their leagues. All my dumbass leagues auto renewed which I hate because I like to at least gatekeep invites ever so slightly by having people confirm that they're playing by clicking an email and opening a few links. I might ask for confirmation or something for the people who auto renewed. Obviously with the HHL I'll need keepers from all players.

Also unsure on draft times for either league, generally I like to draft as close to the start of season as possible.

It's earlier this year if we want to start before the games played in Europe (Oct 7th). The NA start is October 11th. Seems like it would be easier to just plan for the weekend/monday before the 11th.

Gonna leave it open until end of tomorrow for the old managers and then open it up to the new teams.

HHL people, I'll get the list of the ineligible keepers up soon.

quoting last year for rules

quote:

The keeper cost is their cost last year + 20% (and you can keep up to 4 players), and that your budget is $500 (with you keeper budget subtracted from your draft budget for the actual draft). Any money you don't spend in the draft is added to your $100 FAAB budget (you can still add players for free during the season, but FAAB is used for players on waivers).


Current Waiting List:

HHL (15/16 managers currently)

HHL is up to 15/16 returning managers (impressive)

We're actually full in the LSL and HHL now pending a few invites. I've PMed those first on the queue for the LSL.


Given all the (somewhat surprising, dead forums etc) interest in fantasy hockey this year, in my hubris I've opened up another league: The Denis Lemieux Memorial League -- this is a more traditional scoring league (no hits/blocks). It's still H2H and it also has a neat little twist in that you can trade draft picks. This league also has no bench slots and just 3 waiver acquisitions per week, so it's much easier to set your lineup on a weekly basis.

So come on over and express your inner Jim Rutherford. I'm going to leave the public invite for this one here: https://hockey.fantasysports.yahoo.com/hockey/71986/invitation?key=79bf1c2a02d2d2b8&soc_trk=lnk&ikey=42eae1ba91139aad

HHL Keeper Rules

You can keep up to 4 players from your final roster last year, and your budget is $500 (with you keeper budget subtracted from your draft budget for the actual draft). The keeper cost is the player's cost last year + 20% (rounded up).

Link to last year's costs: https://hockey.fantasysports.yahoo.com/2021/hockey/33178/draftresults?drafttab=team

Link to last year's final rosters: https://hockey.fantasysports.yahoo.com/2021/hockey/33178?pspid=782205797&activity=hockey (click on standings to find your team)

If they're not on there, they were added to your roster for $1 via free agency (and will cost $2 as a keeper), save for these players, who were added via FAAB:

Evgeni Malkin Pit - C
$51 Winning Offer

Jakub Vrana Det - LW
$7 Winning Offer

Josh Manson Col - D
$3 Winning Offer

J.T. Compher Col - C,RW
$11 Winning Offer

Evan Bouchard Edm - D
$4 Winning Offer

fawning deference posted:

Igor Shesterkin $3 --> $4
Moritz Seider $8 --> $10

Yahoo has some weird rear end thing where if you miss the Euro games you can't start the league until Week 2, so HHL won't officially start until the 17th which is fine whatever. The other two leagues will start on the 7th.

8th is a hard slot and I had multiple guys get sniped right before I was going to pick them which is never a good sign. I'm light on faceoffs and I don't like having glassmen like Hischier and Hall. That being said, I think it's solid and should contend for a playoff spot, especially if I can find a solid C or D early on waivers.
