Springfield Posted October 2, 2011 Author Share Posted October 2, 2011 Question is there a reason why they are 2 sets of forwards? lol otherwise i agree Well, there were originally 9 forwards, so I scaled it back by 3. There were 5 defensemen so I scaled it back to 4. That way there are two sets of forwards and two sets of D, a utility and 2 goalies. I've never played fantasy hockey before so I didn't want to scale it back too much considering what was pre-selected for the league. If you guys think we should have 3 forwards, 2 D, 1 utility and 1 goalie we can do that as well... or, we could just get rid of the utility as well. And yes, utility is like a flex player. He has to be a forward or defense, no goalies. ---------- Post added October-2nd-2011 at 12:16 PM ---------- Also, I present to you... trophies!!! http://games.espn.go.com/fhl/trophylist?leagueId=6996&seasonId=2012&sort=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big roster means you have to work harder for sleepers and hope for a little luck. Love the trophies. I think everyone should make the deal that whichever you awarded you have to put in your sig until the next hockey season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Springfield Posted October 3, 2011 Author Share Posted October 3, 2011 I don't need draft prep, I'm that damn good. So... I've never drafted on ESPN before. How does one get into the draft room and how long before the draft starts does the draft room open up. Anyone know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skinfan2k Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 yeah it opens about 1 hour early. just don't double click, people were pissed that they accidentally picked a player they were just looking at Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Springfield Posted October 3, 2011 Author Share Posted October 3, 2011 The draft room is open. I have the 3rd overall pick! ---------- Post added October-3rd-2011 at 07:04 PM ---------- Fittingly, Ovheckin He Fires He Scores has the first overall pick. I wonder who's going #1.

HBnotBlades Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 Yea I got stuck at work too. I missed the first two rounds and the auto-draft grabbed me Crosby in the 2nd. Not sure about that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Springfield Posted October 4, 2011 Author Share Posted October 4, 2011 So, one cool thing I noticed as I was checking everything out.. You don't have to set your line up every day. You can set it for days in advance. Pretty cool. This should be lots of fun. Still sucks that Brave...93 was stuck at a game of squash and couldn't get there in time to select Ovechkin with the number 1 overall pick. I guess Sedin will have to do for you pal.

lovetoaster Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 I actually hated my team during the draft last night, but the more I look at it, I kinda like it.
