This is a tough situation. I am in the same situation in Dynasty NHL.  I took on a team that was in a worse situation than the Rangers in this league.  I have done everything, within in rules, to turn that team around. 

Everyone in the league knew I had no shot at winning.  They were happy I was there to set lineups, and that I was on the boards.  I totally agree that no team should be throwing games, but coming into a situation like I did in Dynasty, or Jesse did here, the new owner wants to make changes.

Bottom line, no rules were broken.  Also, I don't believe that Jesse threw any games.  He didn't bench guys that were playing.  He played who he could. 

I don't think any rule change needs to be made.  Jesse is doing a rebuild, and doing everything, within the rules, that he can to make his team the best he can.

Think you guys are missing the point. Whether you call it a tanking or a rebuild there should still be a clear definition of what a minimum roster looks like. Why leave something so easily definable to subjectivity?

This isn't about Jesse for me and it never was. It's about clarity.

If I start a rebuild can I field a team with 15 players? How about 12? What is the difference between rebuilding and tanking anyway? Why leave it to case by case consideration when all you have to do is set a guideline?

Ok I understand, I think a minimum is a good idea and that would be a full lineup. I wouldn't put stipulations on the positions so it could be got around that way but a minimum of 3+3+3+6+2 for 17 minimum could be something we could discuss.

At this moment.

I'll use any loophole I can to better my team in the future so when I ask for clarity it's really a self-policing thing.

    May 21, 2024, 10:00:53 PM
  • Daddy: If someone appears on your roster its because they are your player
    May 21, 2024, 10:01:21 PM

    May 21, 2024, 10:02:42 PM
  • BayAreaBallers: last question
    May 21, 2024, 10:02:46 PM
  • Daddy: Only the newest NBA LIVE rosters are unknown as we will go with the newest version for the upcoming 2024/25 season.
    May 21, 2024, 10:02:54 PM
  • Daddy: NHL LIVE you must wait.
    May 21, 2024, 10:03:15 PM
  • Daddy: It doesnt start till 6/1
    May 21, 2024, 10:03:28 PM
  • Daddy: We just work fast ;)
    May 21, 2024, 10:03:45 PM
  • Daddy: Looks like its ready but the SS isnt finished and we cant do transactions till we finish.
    May 21, 2024, 10:04:25 PM
  • Daddy: Its not like the others. Its got NHL/AHL and formulas need perfected.
    May 21, 2024, 10:04:56 PM
  • Daddy: A lot of LIVE GMs came after i had won in football and built a monster in baseball. Many of you weren't there for the start. Like STLBlues. Like Braves. So you talk smack to the old Man (me).
    May 21, 2024, 10:09:00 PM
  • Daddy: I cannot wait to start these virgin leagues. So that (you too BAB) can get your deserved foots from day one. :)
    May 21, 2024, 10:10:30 PM
  • Daddy: Size 13 (lubricant included sponsored by *Acme Bigfoot Jelly Inc)

  • Brent: I don't know Hockey, but NHL Live sounds good.  I probably shouldn't have left FGM as I have a little more time than I thought after leaving a bunch of other leagues.
    May 21, 2024, 10:38:24 PM
  • STLBlues91: Think there are 3 more teams left until NHL gets filled up
    May 21, 2024, 10:40:10 PM
  • Daddy: Four (4) NY Islanders >> Nashville Predators >> Ottawa Senators >> LA Kings
    May 21, 2024, 10:50:47 PM
  • Daddy: They each had owners who uncommitted two of them went to other sites to try to copy the concept. Problem is no Daddy, no staff,  no LIVE.
    May 21, 2024, 10:52:54 PM
  • Daddy: Nobody on Earth does hockey like we are about to do it. Its a shame 28 teams are gone without most of the true profsl hockey guys signing up. That's a huge loss. For them.
    May 21, 2024, 10:54:45 PM
  • Daddy: If you love hockey and you love dynasty and you arent in LIVE than you must hate me or competition more than you love the others. Which is petty & not worth our efforts anyway.
    May 21, 2024, 10:56:10 PM
  • Daddy: NHL LIVE Spreadsheet [link] should be available to be seen.
    May 21, 2024, 11:35:31 PM
  • Daddy: @Brent we sincerely hope that you do join as a HOF level dynasty GM. The rules and a lot of format carry over from one LIVE league to another.
    May 21, 2024, 11:56:46 PM
  • Daddy: We believe that even if you don't know a sport well, we provide the material, and enough guidance advice that any disadvantages are minimized. Hockey is one of the greatest sports of all time.

    Yesterday at 06:11:32 PM

    Yesterday at 06:14:26 PM
  • STLBlues91: Yeah when we were filling rosters we just included everyone we could since they can be cut. I will be cutting a chunk of guys once we start up
    Yesterday at 06:14:45 PM
