The owners and players need to come to terms with a new collective bargaining agreement. Both sides rarely see eye to eye and both can be greedy so the seaon may be delayed or canceled unless this can be resolved.

The date is not set on stone, we can change it if everyone can agree on a time. But if not yes, you can set it yourself to AUTO I believe. Players will be picked according to rank. And of course there are unlimited roster changes so you can drop and pick up new players.

For strategic purposes. It's a long season. Putting in a defenceman who will block a lot of shots may be better than a goal scorer in some games. Just to make it more interesting. Everyone won't be focused on offense all the time.

Basically you're overvaluing defenseman. 40 players had more than 150 blocked shots last year. Malkin had 109 pts. So basically josh Georges will be the first pick in your league with his 250 blocked shots last year, so I'm not interested in this.

And seriously, SH points but not pp? Were you once on a hockey team and played the penalty kill? You are not giving points for the more skilled players but the less skilled

fixed it for you

Yeah, had some other bad feedback about blocks, so that is out, but short handed points are staying in.

Why not use the standard yahoo one?

k13 · 09-04-12, 12:01 PM

I'll probably play if the strike ends.

Scoring needs some modifications.

Terrapin Station · 09-05-12, 07:49 PM

I'm going to wait a little bit, but if there is def a season, I'm in.
