Don’t worry, if all goes to plan I’m going to win this year with a team entirely made up of Mikes.

Interesting strategy. Does this team include Mikaels or Mikas as well?

haha yeah forgot him too. I would honestly be most worried about somebody snatching Richards, but since you’re only doing Mikes I think he’s the best Mike in the NHL. I won’t draft him at all.
That would be an idea for a league though, only picking one first name and drafting only that name and see which name is the best. I have had leagues where you pick a team (i.e. Philadelphia Flyers, Rangers, etc.) and you only have that team. The idea is to just stack up your teams using other stats beyond wins and losses. They went well but I always had one person who didn’t understand the rules and always drafted players not on their designated team (nobody had the capitals in my league, but somebody took Ovechkin to give you that idea).
I just thought it would be cool to somehow make a 6 team league for hockey and matching up divisions (one person picks each division and the best players in that division and see who wins, and I think the Atlantic would have the upper hand).

There are a lot of decent Mike’s. Green, Camalari, Ribiero are just a few of the ones I thought of.
That 6 team league would be pretty fun. I’d be keen if anyone else was

Yeah I feel that there are a ton of great Mikes (you may have a great team with mikes to be honest, and I think everybody else will let you take all the Mikes to see how it works, I will), and no other names are really coming to me except Dans at the moment.
Well that’s two, if we can get 4 other serious people I’ll do it. I’m just a little weary of posting a league like that publicly since it will be complicated and I’ll have a joker who will take some players out of division.
So to all people on BSH who are interested, I want to make a league with just 6 teams, and each person picks one of the 6 divisions in Hockey and only has players from that division on their team (they can pick the best players). I think it may be interesting and I am curious how it will work out. People can choose what kind of scoring system and other rules (I think that you must have at least 2 or 3 players from each of the 5 teams from the division on your roster at all times, stuff like that). Reply if this interests you.

haha, I totally missed this thread earlier. That’s cool that there are 3, and there are plenty of great players in the South East you can pick that can help keep you on top of the league.
I think that it can be close since you have to pick the best players from the division and there are a lot to pick from, and there is also some luck with picking players who have great seasons.
So that’s 3, if there’s a 4th from here I’ll make it and wait to see if there is more interest before i publish it and hope nobody messes up the rules.

I don't really mind
which division I get, but if other people want to choose then that’s fine.
Backing Backlund for 2010-2011

Suggestions...
1. The starting roster should consist of 2 full lines and 2 goalies with a minimum of 2 players from each team in the division you represent…(LWx2, Cx2, RWx2, Dx4, Gx2)…12 players
2. The ‘bench’ should be large enough to carry 1 subs at each forward position, 2 subs for defense, and an additional goalie…6 players
3. No more than 4 players can be chosen from any 1 team in your division. (With an 18 player roster, this ensures that at least 2 players from each team will be included (Even if you take 4 players from 4 teams, you will still have to fill out with 2 players from the 5th)).
4. Drop/Adds limited to 3 per week.
5. Line-up changes should be allowed daily, but team must always have at least 2 players from each team in the starting line-up. Any daily line-up that fails to meet this requirement will forfeit that days scoring.
6. Head 2 Head weekly scoring with the Top 4 Divisions advancing to the playoffs. The playoffs would consist of a 2 week scoring period for each round with the 2 losing divisions from the first round playing one another for 3rd place.
Just a few thoughts…

I am not sure exactly how we are going to pick the divisions. My best guess is if we do a live draft we just use the draft order to determine which order we get to “draft” our division, by having our first drafted player from one division until all 6 are gone.
Another way is for us to just say which division we want. Maybe we all want a different one and it will work out that way. I’m not sure as I think a lot of people will want the Atlantic Division, but hell it’s worth a shot. If any two people want the same, we’ll just do the draft thing so there’s some randomness.
As for the rules, I was just thinking of having no bench. In the team leagues I’ve done (picking one team and having only their players) I have no bench so you don’t have to pick and choose. That will eliminate the problem of making sure every day you have 2 players active, plus it allows each of your players to play all of their games in the season (it ends up being fair in the end).
Also with the numbers of players, I wasn’t quite sure yet (I’ll have to check how many players we can have max), but I was wanting larger rosters since we have 5 teams to pick from. And I was also thinking maybe just having a set number of players from each team period (i.e. if we can have 25 players, we have 5 from each team, at least 1F, 1D, and 1G) or something like that. We all can brainstorm that. If anybody gets injured you can put them on the IR or just drop them since nobody else will take them, and only replace them with another player from that team (to keep the minimum on)
All we need is 2 more people and this can happen. Since the season doesn’t start for another month no rush. But when we all agree on the details I can form the league and tweak things and invite everybody and once we have all 6 people we can draft and such.
But great thoughts, I’m glad it’s going along. This should be a fun idea.

I’m willing to go any division, and I don’t mind if Katchis wants South East.
I’m fine with the no bench rule, but I think 5 players from each team might be on the high end. What if we had 20 players, with a minimum of 3 players from each team?
Backing Backlund for 2010-2011
Mourning Gagne forever.
Yeah I think 20 works. I was just going through divisions and teams and most teams have at least 3 or 4 stars you may want on your fantasy team.
I had a thought about goalies and I wanted to shoot it out there. I was thinking so that we don’t miss stats for our goaltenders (and last minute switches with starters and backups) that our teams should just have all 10 goaltenders from the division so everybody will have an even amount of games played (since say the Northwest will have Kipp and Luongo and they play 65 games a season, but other divisions may have a few teams that split the duties). Then you also don’t have to worry about a switch and losing points for the day. Then we can just apply the minimum number rules to the forwards and defense.
Well Katchis can have the South East. I would like to do the Atlantic but I don’t want to hog it up, and I’m sure I’d enjoy having any other division. But then again I’ll have to be the one to have all the cooties on my team with Crosby and Malkin and Tavares and DiPietro (though he’ll just be on the IR all season on the roster) and Brodeur. I’ll just take the Atlantic if one of you or Fezzlekway doesn’t claim it.
Then whoever the 2 newcomers are they can have what’s left I guess but if one of them complains I’ll just do the random thing.
How does everything sound?

With this goalie thing
We like… draft all the starting goalies and their backups? If I’m getting it right, I think it’s a good idea. I like it.
And thank you for giving me the South East! Hope no one will complain about it… :)

As I would NEVER deny Ms Cheese the ability to be with her Gagne, the SouthEast is definitely hers…
I would like the Atlantic (DUH we are all FLYER fans here…lol), but I am not a hog either…If I cannot have the Atlantic, I would then choose the Pacific Division please…

6 divisions, 20 teams. Doesn’t exactly work.
But how can everybody be overlooking the division I would brawl for: the Central.

I was contemplating asking for that division, for a while actually, but it has Chi and Det. Sometimes it’s not all about winning. I really like NSH and CBJ though.
6 divisions, 20 players from the teams within those divisions to make a roster….

Right, but you have 20 fantasy teams and 6 divisions. Do you give 4 owners the Atlantic and 3 the Pacific? Do you pick 5 divisions and give 4 owners the divisions? Which division do you leave out?
If we’re going away from an all-NHL draft pool, I’d suggest having one league take the West, the other take the East.

We were talking about having a 6 fantasy team league, so one team per division. Different from the BSH one.
Fez – Atlantic/Pacific
Katchis – South lEast
Lindbergh – Atlantic
Me – ???
And you can have the Central if you want in.

The North West is the reason I don’t want to use all 10 goaltenders, cos that could be brutal.
I looked at the total goal differences for each division/total goals against:
Atlantic= +24/1135
NEast = -38 (Toronto mostly)/1135
SEast = -42 (Wash were the only positive team)/1249
Central = +34/1132
NWest= -42/1195
Pacific= +64/1141
Backing Backlund for 2010-2011

The North West doesn’t look too bad, but I’d still be worried about having the Oilers (who will suck), Wild (who doesn’t quite have a team identity yet), Flames (Olli Chokinen et al) and Avalanche (who could probably be good, but it’s anyone’s guess).
Backing Backlund for 2010-2011

I'd like to clarify the rosters
We’re talkin minimum 3 players from each team (min. 15 players) but also forcing teams to have every goalie in the division? That seems excessive.
How many divisions are missing a 65-start goalie? Last year, you had:
Atlantic: Fleury, Lundqvist, Brodeur
NE: Miller
SE:
NW: Luongo, Anderson, Kipprusoff
C:
P: Bryzgalov, Nabokov, Quick
But Vokoun (SE) had 62 starts and Howard © had 61.
Yeah, there are some stronger goaltending divisions than others, but the Central and Southeast are stronger scoring divisions than the Atlantic and NW. I think it all works out where we don’t need to have all 10 goalies. Because who wants Deslauriers on their team?

Rosters...
I’m afriad I have to agree with Geoff (not that its a bad thing) on this, seems very excessive. Since we are talking about not having a bench, and all players will be starting, I propose (assuming that Yahoo will allow a roster big enough)…That each franchise selects 1 FULL line from each team in their division…(LW,C,RW,D,D,G)…I know that makes a 30 player roster, but it would solve the goalie issue, and it would also ‘force each franchise to truly represent each team in their division…Perhaps a game cap on the goalie position might be in order as well, maybe 328 (4 × 82 game season) max for goalies…just a thought since you are going to carry 5 goalies, but none of them are going to play all 82 games…the cap would kind of ’even’ things up for those with a division where maybe 1 or 2 guys are only going to play 45-50 games as opposed to divisions where there are 3 guys that WILL play 60-65 games…

I like the idea, but 30 player rosters are pretty big. It obviously shouldn’t take that long to draft (how many choices do you honestly have? You don’t have to worry about anybody taking the player you want…) but that’s a lot to manage.
Either way, this is an idea I’m pretty pumped about. Maybe we should start the league so this conversation takes place there instead.

30 is large I agree Geoff, but since all 30 players are starters and there is no bench, it shouldnt be too bad to manage, the only changes that should need to be made is for injury, so maybe 2-3 slots for IR. As for drafting, should be pretty quick, the draft order has no bearing since no one else can select from your teams, and my 8 year olds could tell you who the best 5 skaters are on any given team…best LW,C,RW, 2 best D, starting G…and move on to the next team…

Right. I like it, except – using the Central as an example – I wouldn’t be able to have Datsyuk and Zetterberg (both centers). Same problem applies in the Atlantic (Malkin and Crosby).

decisions, decisions, decisions right? I think we will all come up against those decisions. BUT…consider those you do not initially choose are in ‘The Reserves’ and could be called into ‘active duty’…I do however think there should be a weekly limit on roster moves, maybe 5 a week, so if a guy isnt doing so hot, you can switch him with another player from your reserves…

Merely suggestions gang, Im not in charge here, just proposing possibilities. BUT I would prefer not seeing teams with 10 centers, 10 defense, 5 wings, 5 goalies. It is only my opinion, but I think they should be set up like a real roster (and of course I realize that many centers will slide over to the wing, which yahoo accounts for making the player eligible at more than 1 position). Ultimately it is up to Lindy or if he chooses, by majority vote. Just trying to throw some ideas out there, but no matter how it shakes out…Its all good with me :)

I like ideas. I like discussion. I see the problem you’re trying to correct, I just would prefer setting a minimum number of players from each team in the division as opposed to the strict position requirements.

Exactly… I believe that having minimun 3 players from each team is enough. What if I don’t like any center from let’s say Carolina or Atlanta? In that case I’d like to have the opportunity to replace them with center from other team… like Vinny or Stammer from the Ligtning. I don’t want to obliged to have all five positions from each team, you know?

Hi all,
I’ve been having spotty internet lately so I have to go to the library to get online. I can come here during my internship but they block Yahoo Fantasy sports there. (boo)
So to clarify, the league is Todd, Katchis, Fezzlekway, Travis, Geoff, and myself.
I guess this also means I get the Atlantic Division (yay).
I can try making it tonight and finish it up tomorrow at the latest. If we are in a rush to get this set up somebody can do it (I don’t have to be the commish), but if you’re all ok with waiting another day I’ll get it set up.
I am going to try to get back to the library tonight so I can make the league, so if anybody wants to name the league before I create it, go for it, and I’ll use that when I make it later on.
I’ll be back here when I’m online again and make the league, then we can move all of this conversation into the league.
If somebody wants to give me a general consensus on the positions that’d help.
i was thinking of just doing an offline draft, picking the one obvious player in each division everybody should want and just letting the rest of us draft our teams on our own time. Any other thoughts let me know and I’ll get it going in a bit.
Thanks, I hope this league is fun!

Lindy, sorry to hear of your internet woes, if I can help, let me know…I have all night tonight (as I am going to be finalizing my FFL draft setting tonight anyway), if you want me to set up the league, I would be happy to do so, just let me know what parameters you want set. Otherwise, I am in no rush and happy to wait, but am here to lend a hand if need be…

Ok, I am updating you guys. Didn’t get to make it last night (stupid library hours changed and closed earlier), but I am heading out from my internship (where fantasy sports is blocked) to the library, so I’ll start making the league once I’m there.
Until then, I’ve read everything we have been talking about for positions and such, and I want it to be a consensus for all of us what we want, so democracy time for us.
So I see that we all seem to think that just a 3 player minimum from each team works. My questions are:
How many skaters do we want? 3 lines and 3 D pairs (18) plus goalies?
For goalies how many sould I make? I know having them all is excessive, so do we just want one from each team, and apply the 3 player minimum to skaters?
Of course I can change it all after I make it, and I’ll put the link to join.
And I’ll just take a poll for the scoring, do we want points, rotisserie, or head to head? (my vote is points)
I suck at naming things, so anybody can name the league. The best I have is BSH Division something. (maybe rivals?, though not correct since each of our teams will be fighting themselves in that manner).
I’ll be back when I get it set up.

Could it be 4 lines and 3 D-pairs? That’s how I would like it… not sure what others think.
I love the Lightning AND the Flyers... go ahead, preach me!
Dare to follow my childish, biased, petty and cheesy alter ego.
American Cheese, B!tch! ... #1 mission? Kill Holmgren.
12 Forwards, 6 Defense & 5 Goalies (3 player minimum from each team (NOT including Goalies))…that gives us 4 Forward Lines & 3 Defensive Pairs with 1 Goalie from each team. Total Roser of 23 players.
*
I am still in favor of a max game cap for the goalies (since as stated some divisions do not boast 2 or 3 guys that will play 65-70 games)…I previously suggested 328 max (4 x a full 82 games season).

Yeah, I actually added the numbers from my previous post and realized I meant 4 lines and 3 pairs, lol. But 23 sounds good, and I like the name of the league too (you can change it all season, so we’ll see how others like it. Plus Risk is one of my favorite board games)
I’m making the league now, I’ll put that cap on the goalies (should we cap forwards too, I don’t think we should if we limit transactions), but I’ll get the basis of the league set up and I can refine it later.
I’ll give you the link when it’s up!

Ok, the league has been made:
League ID: 19960
Password: BSH
I also made a unique league url:
http://hockey.fantasysports.yahoo.com/league/division_rivalry
Check out the settings and scoring and all and we can refine stuff in there. Looking forward to seeing everybody join.
Also we can make our team names whatever we want, just post what division you are in there so as soon as everybody is in (maybe soon if we’re all online) I can just do the autopick draft and pick just one player and we can fill out our rosters individually.

Change positioning to 2LW,2C,2RW & 6 Forwards…this will alleviate the problems with those wanting to have more than 4 center (ex: I think it was Geoff who mentioned Zetterberg & Datsyuk)…it will allow more flexibility

Yeah, I just put it that way because I wasn’t sure if we were for or against having it like that. I have no problem with that. I think maybe doing 3C, 3LW, 3RW, and then just 3F positions will do it. If that doesn’t end up working I can change it, but I’ll wait until everybody is in before I change it.
#1 Flyers Fan in New York
Good bye #12, you will always bleed Orange and Black.
That looks good. Also, could we have a bench? It seems more likely that people will have top 25 skaters and rotate them, rather than have a core and switch those players out with free agents

I’m fine with that if everybody else is. I’m sure we’ll cap the games and such, but I guess we’ll get all of that out of the way in the league.
BTW, which division did you pick? Northeast or Northwest? Travis is the one you don’t pick I believe.
#1 Flyers Fan in New York
Good bye #12, you will always bleed Orange and Black.
I would actually propose 26 skaters, it would allow for 2F and 1D on the bench.

suggestion 2…with regards to capping the skater positions…IF you do decide to cap the F/D positions, I would suggest doing do as with the goalies (Total number of players, subtract 1 and multiply by 82 games for your cap total…902 (forwards)…410 (defense)…it would help prevent having to shuffle and scramble if someone gets hurt and misses 3 games or some crap like that…again just suggesting

I’m reading the Player Rankings top 150 overall, which can be found as a pdf here. A lot of them are terrible
72. Mike Richards, C, PHI Assists dropped last season but could turn around this year if he finds some chemistry with Leino.
15. Marian Gaborik, RW, NYR Finally showed us what a healthy Gabby can do when healthy. Just needs to stay that way
150. Kimmo Timonen, D, PHI Steadfast rearguard, great playmaker on PP. Draft him just after the elite blueliners are off the board.
Just after the elite blueliners?
90. Danny Briere, RW, PHI Won’t likely return to the 95-point stratosphere but still a fantasy asset. Just don’t overpay to get him.
Well that ones actually quite good.
No Giroux, but Leino makes it in? I suppose that Leino is playing with Mike, right.

I love the Flyers so much I even went to Bobby Clarke Day Camp.
You should probably have 3-4 leagues going with only one team allowed per person. Then take the top 5 from each league then next year have a “winners league” … just an idea
I like this idea alot, but make it more exclusive for the ‘Winners’ league…if there are 2 BSH leagues then ok take the top 5 from each. If 3 leagues take top 4 from each, etc…
After all, we don’t want to be the Central Hockey League with our format (16 of 18 make it…REALLY?! LOL!).
No more than the top 20-25% of the teams from each league should be invited to compete in the, oh let’s call it the “Champion’s League”, where the best of the best vie for the BSH (what should we have a bowl, a cup, a dish…no wait, I got it…the winner will be awarded the BSH Silver Spoon…LOL!

Yes and no.
The second half of the draft is a crap shoot. Honestly, we don’t even know if players like Kimmo and Carter are going to perform going into the next year.
No, because after making all those crap shoot choices for the 2nd half of the draft, you’ve got THE ENTIRE SEASON to do nothing with. Trades are fine and dandy, but rare, since everyone thinks their team and players are of the highest value. So basically, you’re looking at 2nd line talent in the AHL. And hoping they score a point and a +1 for the 2 games they’re called up. IF you’re fast enough to claim the guy ahead of 19 other people.
Big leagues suck.
by BroadStreetBully on Aug 27, 2010 7:13 PM EDT up reply actions
While I agree that big leagues are much more difficult, I think that they can be more fun too. With a bigger league, the talent is more diluted and therefore tests your knowledge of players and your GM skills for building a team. Once you hit the second half of the draft, your first 2 lines should be pretty much set, so you are really looking to fill out the roster with 3rd – 4th line guys that can contribute a few points here and there. The key is having better 3-4 players than the rest of the league. In a smaller league, anyone can fill a team up with star players and score a ton of points.

League rules
There is no games cap? That can get kinda dicey with people waiving players after every game.
To branch off: We ran into some trouble in fantasy baseball before with teams not paying attention (at all) and thus winning the rate stats (ERA, WHIP, BA, OBP) due to low innings/ABs. I doubt that would be a problem here, but I’m all for setting a minimum GP. I can be talked into a GP cap, but that to me seems like less of a problem. It would certainly be one for PIMS category (basically, grab whoever the Flyers opponent called up that day), but otherwise, I don’t see anybody dropping Nik Zherdev to go get Lee Stempniak for a game.

It is your guys leagues and thus your rules. I was just in an H2H league two years (which has no game caps) where constantly flipping guys every day and only keeping the super star types. At any given time there was a good 30 players on waivers. Needless to say Yahoo! - despite being part of the rules - didn’t do crap about it and the asshole won (I mean if that is the only sense of accomplishment in his life by dicking over 11 other strangers in a fantasy sports league …). With 20 teams and 17 players it might not be that much of an issue; just take the info under advisement.
Yeah, it’s Travis’. I’m a newb at fantasy hockey, so I’ll let Travis deal with your question.

The laws of alchemy dont justify murder........but the laws of murder justify being a cowboys fan :P
I just looked over our league and at the draft time, anyway it can be scooted up an hour? 8 is alright just not sure I can stay the whole time. This will probably be a reasonably long draft and I will have to leave around 9:30 for work so if you think we will be done by then, don’t worry about it. If you think it will take longer to finish maybe move it up by just an hour so I can finish the process. Up to you.

Instead of being a jerk about it, you could say “hey, any interest for a third league?”
And then, when people inevitably say “yeah, I didn’t get in on the first two either”, we make a third league. And there are no problems.

*This is not entirely true. I was going to steal a Deadspin use’s name and go with some variation of “Dany Heatley Speedwagon,” but thought that wouldn’t fly straight with many. Also, character limits. Curses.
Travis & Geoff…
This VERY polite young man is in need of some assistance…

Perhaps a 3rd league, and even out the 3 leagues to give us all some elbowroom?

YES! I agree with this. If we could cut 5 teams from each league and make it 15 teams per league that would be great seeing as with so many teams there is basically no one that you can pick up off waivers.

I’d be happy to make another league and take the reigns from Travis and do the 3rd league. Odds are, the draft would be on a Sunday night or any night during the week around 1030 (eastern).
Also, Mighty Ducks references and Coburn man love will be the theme of the league
