Except for the draft, which you can let Yahoo do for you, the way it's set-up is pretty much "set it and forget it" The only thing you have to watch out for is if a player gets injured and you have to replace him in your starting lineup. And unless a guy is injured and out for the season, you don't have to worry about making up the games for a guy who misses an odd game here and there until the very end. Actually, this will take up less time than hockey. In hockey, because there's no miximum number of games played, you have to set your lineup every day to make sure that as many players as possible are playing. In baseball, you set it once with your starting lineup, and that's it (unless, as I said, a guy goes out for the whole season) I'll tell you what - I'll make you an offer you can't refuse: You play, and I'll keep track of all that stuff for you. And if you don't play, I'm gonna take it very, very personal.  :p

Plaw's Left Wingers picked up 19 points in the standings after going 9-0-1, and have pushed Don Cardi and IceMan's teams back into 3rd place and 4th place respectively. Don Pelosi's Staten Island Rockets continue to hold onto the 5th place spot despite going 4-3-3 last week. And our friend and business associate, DonMichaelCorleone continues to dwell in the cellar. Perhaps he's decided to give up on the season in order to secure the number 1 draft pick for next season! :p Don Cardi

A little strange, to say the least.... :rolleyes: The 6th leading scorer in the league, and leading goal scorer....  True, he was slumpimg, but still.....  So you gonna get in the Yahoo Baseball League, "MOAFS" ( :rolleyes: ), or what? No excuses about not having the time for a live draft. You played this, didn't you? Just pre-rank your players.....

What happens if a player goes on the real-life disabled list after the playoffs start?
We can't replace him?
I'm not sure how they do it in real-life hockey, but in baseball a team is allowed to re-set their roster before the start of each series.
If someone is injured during a playoff series I don't think he can be replaced, but I'm pretty sure that he can be replaced before the start of the next series.

I thought of that Plaw. However in real life a team can reach down to their affiliate minor league organization. That's real life. This is fantasy. And what I am trying to avoid is having someone manipulate the real NHL schedule by making moves all week long so that they cen get the most playing time for a player on their team. Example : I have Peter Forsberg on my team. I look at the regular NHL schedule and see that Forsberg's real life team only has two games that week. But free agent Rod Brindamour's real life NHL team is playing 5 games that week. In reality what I can do is make free agent moves all week long based on the real life NHL schedule and manipulate the free agents to get the maximum amount of games played by that player for my team that week. That is the problem that we face with allowing free agent signings to go on during the playoffs. Don Cardi

Only allow someone to replace a player with a free agent if one of their players goes on the real-life disabled list.

Originally posted by plawrence:

I searched through the league commissioner's tools, and there really is nothing that I can do to expand the roster/bench for the playoffs. I guess that I can monitor the teams everyday for the entire playoffs and if someone drops an injured player, who has been placed on the NHL's official disabled list, and replaces him with a free agent, then no problem. But if I see a transaction during the playoffs where a team just drops an uninjured player and picks up another, then I will go into his team line-up and edit it back to the way that it was. I think that we can trust each other to make a free agent signing during the playoffs only to replace an officially injured player. Or, if anyone is not comfortable with that, I can set the transactions allowed to ZERO once the playoffs start, and if someone has a player on their team placed on IR by the NHL, then they can request that I sign a free agent for them, of their choice of course, and I can go back in, alter the transaction number, pick up a player for that team, and then set the transactions allowed number back to Zero.

There's nothing to monitor, really, except the league transaction log. As you said, if anyone makes a player move, just make sure that the player he dropped is on realife "IR". If he's not, then as you said, you as commissioner can simply undo the move, yell at the guy for cheating, ban him from playing in the future, hold him up to public ridicule and embarrassment, and let Don Smitty get his hands on him.

So that's it then right?
If someone goes on the real-life DL you can replace him?

If someone goes on the real-life DL you can replace him? Well Plaw, I sent league e-mails about this to the other players, and so far only you, Don Pelosi and myself have responded. So as far as I am concerned if a player is legitimately injured and placed on the IR by the NHL, then I see no reason why we shouldn't be allowed to sign a free agent from the waiver list. But again, in order for any team to do this during the playoffs, the injured player MUST be officially on the IR according to the NHL. Otherwise I will NOT allow a team to sign a free agent just for the heck of it. FREE AGENT SIGNINGS WILL ONLY BE ALLOWED ONCE THE PLAYOFFS START FOR THE REPLACEMENT OF ANY PLAYER THAT HAS OFFICIALLY BEEN PLACED ON THE INJURED RESERVE BY THE NHL. NON IR RELATED FREE AGENT SIGNINGS WILL NOT BE ALLOWED Don Cardi
