Inaugural BigFooty Keeper League

[Marns]

Apologies, I thought "anything" was "nothing".
That gets my vote.

Not replacing it with anything = replacing it with nothing.

I think we have enough categories as it is. If I were to go with anything, it'd be blocked shots, but I'd want more people to be on board with that first.

 

[Marns]

Question about the draft time, because sometimes it gives it to me in my time zone, other times it doesn't: I have it listed as Oct 7 @ 8pm. Assuming that's in my time, and it'd be approx 10-11am Oct 8 for most of you blokes?

Is this set in stone yet? Traditionally the draft is on the Sunday afternoon just before the season begins (AustEasternSummerTime)

Haha, yes. Looks like I misread it the second time I looked at it.

Hooray for getting rid of world sport's silliest stat.

Correct

I can change it to sunday 2pm, however it would mean the time for Marns would be 11pm.
Does anyone else want the draft time & day changed?

 

[Bradesmaen]

I should be around that weekend.

 

[TheStinger]

Correct

2pm would be better for me as that would be about 7am.

When is the draft? I hope I have registered correctly, someone let me know if i'm not in?

When do I need keepers set by?

I don't mind IR+ - as long as we don't increase movements per season? I don't want guys to be able to stream players just because someone is injured.

and PG - I couldn't agree more with this statement:

Would be much more useful and interesting if a GWG was the last goal of a game.

But then Jamie Benn would actually get GWG when he scores all those ENGs

Given that would be a Saturday night, I wouldn't mind doing that if it means having everyone present. Oct 7 @ 8pm my time is preferably obviously, but I'm open to moving it.

2pm would be better for me as that would be about 7am.

That's called the champion's handicap. No favours for you

 

[two blue tiger]

2pm Sunday afternoon would be great....

Who is pulling their goalie in a tied game?

 

[Peter Sidorkiewicz]

Draft day and time changed to Sunday afternoon 2pm

 

[Air Conveyance]

And we have a trade to announce: Jack's Journeymen trade Jason Spezza to McJesus & 5 Apostles for a keeper slot.

 

[Bradesmaen]

I approve of this message.

And we have a trade to announce: Jack's Journeymen trade Jason Spezza to McJesus & 5 Apostles for a keeper slot.

Which keeper slot? Normal or rookie?

 

[Bradesmaen]

Which keeper slot? Normal or rookie?

Normal. I have my keepers set once Spezza comes across. Are we posting keepers here to make sure nothing goes wrong or not?

 

[Peter Sidorkiewicz]

It would help me out by posting here so when the keeper deadline passes, there is no confusion when I set rosters.

 

[TheStinger]

Well if we are putting keepers here, this is my list -

Tarasenko
Letang
Keith
MAF
Mike Smith
Marchand
Neal
Ryan

Rookies
Domi
Murray

I traded my last rookie keeper slot to PG for his 5th rounder.

 

[scottyjc]

Looks like I'm keeping:

Toews
Quick
Hall
M.Jones
Landeskog
Simmonds
RNH
T.Johnson

Ekblad
Forsberg
Nurse



Throwing back Vatanen, E.Kane, Reimer (if anyone wants a trade) and a bunch of serviceable veterans:

Thornton
Plekanec
Seabrook
Markov
Backes

 

[Bradesmaen]

Couture
Spezza
Saad
OEL
ROR
Toffoli
Schwarz

McDavid
Gibson
Allen

Allen still qualifies as a rookie as last season was only his 2nd above 22 games. Same with Gibson (who is in his last year of rookie, stupid 23 game 2nd season)

 

[TheStinger]

Can someone explain to me in words of less than two syllables what this IR+ thingy is. Cheers.

You can put players in your IR+ slot who are injured, usually classified as day-to-day, but are not on the club's official injured reserve list.

All words but two under two syllables.

 

[Bradesmaen]

Basically if you have Carolina and Arizona players, you can now put them on ir+ when the team doesn't because they are cap floor

 

[Marns]

Anyone need an extra rookie keeper spot?
