Suggestion/ Reccommendation
« on: August 21, 2018, 10:34:52 PM »
We all know PROFSL isn't like it once was. I have a hard time believing we will find active GM's to fill the vacant teams. I recommend we shrink the league.......put all the vacant players into the FA pool and let us drop 3 players and have a supplemental draft of 3 rounds. Worry about the entry draft later.

If we allow the league to shrink........there will be a very good pool of good players. This league would still be alive......and VERY competitive........IMO. Let's get some thoughts and feed back as the season is fast approaching...... :toth: :toth:

It's not a bad idea, but I agree with Jonathan for the time being. I want to try a little bit of recruiting first.

Happy to hear what other owners think.

While we are waiting for the GM's to check-in and vacancies to be filled we should update this seasons timeline re: the draft, waiver-free, and free-agency. Set some hard dates starting with the draft and auto-pick for any no-shows. Let's get it in gear.

Absolutely, I should have timelines/dates updated in the next day or two.

If you need to manage an owned league team I could do it until you find a manager.

Always willing to step up, I love it. We'll see how it goes. I am still in the process of recruiting.

If anyone knows people who would be a quality fantasy hockey GM, talk to them about signing up for Backyard!
