:iatp: Kings confirm. That 4th overall pick means a lot to our rebuild which we'll approach in a new way. We're going to build up our farm a little quicker with this trade and it also puts us in a position for more moves to improve our future. Thanks Pigs! :toast:

Franchise NHL / Re: FNHL History - Stories
« on: September 25, 2020, 06:04:09 PM »
BB's right, PR dragged me outta retirement because I had given up Fantasy sports for a long time. Years maybe over a decade when we were still drafting with pencil and paper over beers. He said there was a decent setup in FNHL in need of some fine tuning to get the best fantasy hockey minds on board. Didn't believe him.

Stopped by frequently after PR convinced me or bugged me enough to get my attention. That was back in Summer of 2011 when I was a regular troller, so I know when a new prospective owner tells me they've been trolling FNHL for months, been there ... done that!

I saw some guys trying to run FNHL, changing rules on the fly constantly so anyone with a longterm plan was screwed. The league was free so lots of owners were trying out hockey. Most abandoned ship after free agency or after 1-3 months. LOL It was a sad state of affairs.

Orignal commissioners year 1 and 2
If I recall, the guy originally running things was Joeshmoe and he bailed before Free agency 2011. So 2010-Spring 2011. We think he was a university undergrad.

Then there was Gilly who was funny and wired, but lost interest and said he had personal stuff to sort and bailed after a year. 2011- Spring 2012. The league was 1/4 or 1/3 full. Before we banned Gilly, he tried to make PR look bad and PMed the guy running the site and his admins making up lies and trying to get PR suspended or booted altogether. Fast fwd to 2020, Gilly's reputation on ProFSL is a cautionary tale of strange gents hiding behind an internet handle. This guy was someone with personal problems that you could smell from miles away.

What I saw of those first 2 commissioners, didn't interest me in spending time on FNHL. Really liked the idea of a 30 team salary cap money league. But it wasn't serious at all because of the guys originally running things.

Then PR jumped in starting year 3 (he can tell his side of the story from that point on). Not sure why he did but he did.
Good story PPG! Sounds like it was a bit of the wild west in the early days of FNHL. Glad it's all pro now! :toast:

  • Rhino7: Good team except the contracts
    Today at 03:09:09 PM
  • Daddy: Youve seen them? We havent completely structured all that yet. Weve got expansion and other factors that the real Wolves dont face.
    Today at 03:39:40 PM
  • Daddy: My comment on the real Wolves are if they win a chip then there is no such things as bad contracts. The point of all contracts are to win Championships.
    Today at 03:40:57 PM
  • STLBlues91: I will be around the rest of the day to talk deals. Tomorrow I will be around after work but plan on being in some spreadsheets most the day
    Today at 05:04:22 PM

    Today at 05:33:13 PM
  • Daddy: @Rhino7 the rumor is they've got a decent GM in both leagues. Especially NBA LIVE. (Howwwwwwwl)
    Today at 07:13:40 PM
  • STLBlues91: Well Vegas is ready to grab one of the players on the roster
    Today at 07:17:34 PM
  • Daddy: Lol, Seattle too Im sure.:rofl:
    Today at 07:43:10 PM
  • Daddy: I will leak this... Each team will be allowed to protect 5 and each team can only lose one player to expansion
    Today at 07:44:21 PM
  • Daddy: 30 teams to draw from = 15 players each
    Today at 07:44:57 PM
  • STLBlues91: Id also imagine trading and all that can happen. Like pick a guy to trade to another team to pick up other assets
    Today at 07:45:25 PM
  • Daddy: You know LIVE rules. Once they are yours you can do whatever you like.
    Today at 07:46:32 PM
  • STLBlues91: Yeah had to just check. So a deadline to select the keepers. Then a few days for the selection. Me and Seattle alternate picks?
    Today at 07:47:47 PM
  • Daddy: The expansion draft is LIVE alternating picks until both teams have 15 players like the NBA All Star teams get picked.

    Today at 07:49:52 PM
  • STLBlues91: Sounds good I didnt know if it would be like the NHL expansion with seattle where they get posted or live broadcasting
    Today at 07:50:02 PM
  • Daddy: The "Expansion draft" will be a LIVE Event & followed by the Entry Draft where Vegas/Seattle also will start off with picks #1 & #2.
