This is an open discussion thread to talk about the impact of the NHL season currently put on hold.

To get the discussion going, here are some possible outcomes given possible NHL decisions re 2019-20 NHL season:

1) NHL pauses regular season and resumes regular play per existing matches —- RECOMMENDATION: FNHL to resume FNHL playoffs with updated calendar dates.

2) If the NHL decides to cancel the remainder of the season... RECOMMENDATION: FNHL will keep FNHL regular season results, cancel FNHL playoffs & carry over 2019-20 prize pool to 2020-21 FNHL; FNHL draft contingent on NHL holding a draft with weighted lottery to determine draft position for the 8 remaining playoff teams.

3) If NHL decides to eliminate the remainder of its regular season and begin NHL playoffs when play resumes, FNHL playoffs will be cancelled and prize pool carried over to 2020-21 season.

The points above are for discussion and not firm decisions.
Please feel free to post your thoughts.
That is a fair plan.

There is also the possibility the NHL resumes play with a revised schedule but the same number of games over the course of what should be 3.5 weeks. First, we should ensure the remaining 1/2 week is balanced in a similar manner to what should have been the balance of this current week. Also, it will be important to determine if Fantrax can similarly account for and capture the future revised schedule and merge the new dates into the current Franchise NHL playoff set-up.

It really is a wait and see approach given how new this process is for all of us.

Chicago management wishes the Nashville Predators good luck on the road to the Championship. Blackhawks had a lacklustre season and as with many teams in Franchise NHL, injuries took a toll.
We will start preparing for the off-season.

Franchise NHL / Re: DISCUSSION: FNHL (Anti-)Tanking Precautions
« on: March 03, 2020, 04:21:01 PM »
I believe the fact owners pay annually to retain ownership of a team plus there is a lottery system in place both dissuade traditional "tanking" activities in FNHL.

:iatp:
I will agree with DToxFan. Well said.

Welcome to Franchise NHL, 99WildThing.

As others have said, you have purchased a fine franchise in the Carolina Hurricanes. If you are ready to talk trade in the off-season, feel free to contact us in Chicago.

Well done Jonathan. You hung in there and went through a classic rebuild that has netted you some of the top young talent in the game. Bravo!

Franchise NHL / Re: FNHL Playoff Race: 5 WKS LEFT!
« on: February 10, 2020, 01:11:25 PM »
Although MCrow is right, I know I saw the correct 5 week Play-off period in Fantrax as recently as early January.

Also, the FNHL Deadlines page has shown the correct March 2nd start date since 2019-20 deadlines were finalized in the Fall.

Odd that Fantrax has been altered.

Preds win now and Vegas wins next year. Martinook and Olofsson are good players. Aberg is good but Leafs are reluctant to bring him up so he is currently in fantasy limbo.

Calgary Flames and Chicago Blackhawks agree to a deal. Veteran pivot Jeff Carter is sent to Chicago in return for a pair of blueliners and some cap space.

Trade to Calgary
Ron Hainsey, $2.8m (2019-2022)
D - Connor Clifton (SDP 2019: 2013 5/133 - 49 Games)
$3.0m saved in cap

FOR

Trade to Chicago
Jeff Carter, $5.8m (2018-2022)

Thanks for the trade talks Dickie. :toast:

:iatp: Chicago management agrees to this trade. The acquisition of Carter improves our offence immediately. As we have extra defencemen, we are able to accommodate Calgary's request for help on the blueline. Good working with you on this trade, DToxFan. :toast:

    May 15, 2024, 08:04:39 PM
  • Daddy: It uses the LIVE scoring engine. Otherwise its a completely different baseball option then LIVE, FGM, or Armchair.
    May 15, 2024, 08:05:26 PM
  • Daddy: I think its thru fantrax but its next season so he has time to sort that out.

  • BayAreaBallers: i havat be very careful w such things
    May 15, 2024, 08:07:46 PM
  • Daddy: Variety is what all of our leagues should be, no two alike. So we as a site can cater to all types. MLB LIVE lost a HOF level GM (Paul) because he doesn't do H2H leagues.
    May 15, 2024, 08:08:02 PM
  • TheGOAT: @Daddy, when will NBA Live be in full swing?
    May 15, 2024, 08:09:19 PM
  • Daddy: Its there as an option. $10 entry for a chance to win $100 or double your money. Worst case you're out $10 but no contracts etc.
    May 15, 2024, 08:09:37 PM
  • Daddy: @TheGoat starting two leagues next month. NBA could be ready by the upcoming season.
    May 15, 2024, 08:10:17 PM
  • Daddy: @TheGoat I'm waiting on the creation of league boards per @Anthony. Once the boards are up the building of the league begins.

  • Daddy: NHL & NCAA football will both be insane for a minute.

  • BayAreaBallers: its also redraft
    May 15, 2024, 08:14:07 PM
  • BayAreaBallers: which makes it interesting
    May 15, 2024, 08:14:16 PM
  • Daddy: NBA LIVE scoring, concept, rules, its all ready to go. The concept was completed last month.
    May 15, 2024, 08:14:18 PM
  • Daddy: @BAB exactly. Fresh start each year. @Alpha5 is on to something. And the LIVE scoring engine is legit.
    May 15, 2024, 08:15:13 PM
  • BayAreaBallers: i just need to know how money is handled
    May 15, 2024, 08:17:55 PM
  • BayAreaBallers: before deciding
    May 15, 2024, 08:18:01 PM
  • Daddy: That's fair. He is building his own brand "Powerhouse" is redraft each sport $10 entry & 20 teams. Football, Baseball, Basketball, and lastly hockey.
    May 15, 2024, 08:23:34 PM
  • Daddy: Each sport powered by the LIVE scoring engine.
    May 15, 2024, 08:24:55 PM
  • Daddy: Redraft
    May 15, 2024, 08:25:35 PM

  • Braves155: I had the best sick day ever today. This morning I woke sick as piss, texted my boss I was taking a sick day as it wasn't happening. I might also might have met someone who shows interest in this old boy
    May 15, 2024, 09:48:46 PM
  • Braves155: Via an accidental text from said person.

  • dbreer23: It's a clear and quiet night in MLB LIVE, and the boards are cleared...

  • Alpha5: If we could handle the money on fantrax that'd be great. Leaguesafe is actually the site I've been inquiring about

  • Jwalkerjr88: I get like that too Eric. My goal every offseason is to do at least 1 trade with every gm. Why not? Its fun
    Yesterday at 04:55:00 PM
  • Jwalkerjr88: Some guys just dont trade for whatever reason. But the guys who dont arent championship contenders.
    Yesterday at 04:55:47 PM
  • Daddy: They trade, about as often as real teams do. For people that love year round trading, being in one league, one sport, its going to be difficult.
    Yesterday at 05:38:13 PM
  • Jwalkerjr88: Not everyone trades. But agreed, for one sport folk like myself. It requires patience
    Yesterday at 06:10:32 PM
  • Alpha5: NFL LIVE is the most difficult league for me and it's not even close
    Yesterday at 07:22:33 PM
  • Daddy: Cant just trade because its fun. There needs to be a purpose behind trading. Get guys you believe in or need to keep improving.
    Yesterday at 08:44:03 PM
  • Daddy: NFL LIVE has the toughest GMs & football is the toughest fantasy sport for DYNASTY. Redraft will always be King of football.
    Yesterday at 08:45:00 PM
  • Daddy: Baseball, hockey, basketball guys struggle with NFL LIVE because its just so damn fast (football careers, roster turnover etc.)

  • Daddy: We all have the same assets
    Today at 12:14:51 AM
  • Alpha5: If a team has 2 QB1s another team has none. If a team in baseball has 2 1B it doesn't leave a team without one.
    Today at 09:09:33 AM
  • Alpha5: That's what I mean by limited assets
    Today at 09:09:53 AM
  • Brent: And that's why I haven't traded Carr yet.  Someone doesn't have a QB or thinks they'll get one in FA/draft and might be left wanting.
