before too many opinions get thrown around + potential for a flame war is fuelled, we'll close this thread as it is not invalid due to :COL-NHL: owner exiting.


comment: it's one of the speedbumps in running a free league, it's sometimes too easy to check-out (been there myself in the past so i understand). but best to part ways as we're all here for a a good time, not drama.

thread closed.

Angry guy. You need to stop drinking and stroking the keyboard.

Tanking your team for three weeks is retarded.
If you want the 1st overall pick just trade for it next time instead pretending to play pretend GM.

No alcohol involved.

PPG you seem like a beaut so I'm not gonna trash you. No need for it anyways.

This league seems to be all over the map and a few other ppl have said so as well.
I can't keep up with a league with changing rules and weird ones at that.

Was sitting the roster b/c of the trade in question and b/c Drew at the time was being a complete douchebag (well, he still is actually, his PM's and emails were hilarious to read from a "grown" man), not b/c I was trying for a higher pick. That actually never crossed my mind, I'm not even thinking about the 2013 draft, the season just started haha.

I still think it's silly for a group of 8 other members of the same league to vote on a trade.
If one team is selling off good players to reubuild for the future, while another is selling their future (ie. prospects/draft picks) to compete to win this year, any owner on the trade committee that's competing with the team that just got the "better" NHL players could easily make up arguments against why the trade shouldn't go through. "This prospect isn't proven; This prospect is overrated; blah blah blah"

Again, said it before, but this is a free fantasy league. Why should people be telling other people how to run their teams in a FREE league, when for the most part, they don't have a clue who they are, where they're from, or what they look like? Seems ridiculous.
If we all bought in for $200 and had some skin in the game, then yeah, maybe let the league vote on trades. But in a free league? C'mon!

Anyways, that's all.

PPG, you've made a hell of a lot of good moves since coming in here and I still remember the stir you caused when you came in. What a shot in the arm, hilarious comments and calling people out. Love it, love your style. Keep it up - hell, if you have the time, take this league over and re-structure the hell out of it and I'll get back in here.

For the time being, I resign.

GL to everyone.

:iatp:

What's all the fuss about?
I see a team getting a killer farmhand puckstopper. I'll take him if this deal falls apart. LOL

Someone said Saad was good and I'd say yeah he'd be better if he wasn't promoted and laying low down in the farm getting better and not taking up a full time roster spot while outputting points like a 3 legged blind cat on ice. He's kind of useless this year no better than Erik Christensen on my Hawks.

Team getting Max wins now.
Flamers win starting next year.

I thought 2 vetos nixes the deal?


it's actually 3 votes either way per TC instructions + function...

Trade Committee:
...
These members are the active trade committee. They are responsible for approving trades.
Takes 3 approvals for the trade to be confirmed.
They are also responsible for:
- Commenting on trades
- Deciding who won/who lost
- The fairness of the trade
- Whether the trade was legit or set up
- Whether the trade would be a detriment to that franchise or the league.


[ commissioners ] will only put in their input when needed....those reasons are if trade has been on the board to long, a TC member is inolved in the trade or if its tied 3-3 in voteing!!

I understand why this deal is controversial, but I do not think it is that outrageous. Stewart is bouncing back this year and we all know how valuable and hard to come by goalies and good goalie prospects are. I also think positional needs are important and a good RW is usually more rare than a good LW.

I approve the trade.
