AHL- Apolyton Hockey League 07/08: Preseason

[notyoueither]

It's on again.

They have some new features. Among them, you can register a URL and keep track of successive seasons for the league.

I suggest we take the AHL, or Apolyton Hockey League.

Other new things can be seen here.

I'll send out invites to everyone from last year and the 3 inactive managers from the previous season. Give them a few days to speak up and then we can send out other invites.

Topics for discussion include...

Commissioner

Rules

This year's stats categories and roster sizes. We used 2C, 2L, 2R, 2D, 2G, 4 bench, 2 IR last year with G, A, +/-, PPG, PPA, W, SV%, SHO.

Draft

Thoughts?

[notyoueither]

PMs and emails sent.

A lot of people block email from Poly.

Asher's PM box is full and he does not accept email through Poly. If anyone knows where to find him, feel free to let him know we are getting set up.

It would be good to have Asher in the league, but I don't see it happening.

[notyoueither]

He has sent me a PM and said he's been in touch with kontiki.

I wouldn't be surprised.

[Tingkai]

great

[Kontiki]

Asher did send me a PM and said he'd be happy to participate, but that we'd need to email him when his turn came up in the draft. He even took a little poke at himself and said we wouldn't have to deal with him in the forums.

He also invited us to participate in a Yahoo points league he's hosting through his blog.

I haven't given any thought to the roster or stats, but on the commissioner duties I could do them again or am happy to pass the torch to someone else.

Well, like I said in the other forum, I'm interested. The roster and stats from last year are fine

[notyoueither]

People who were not in before should feel free to speak up to get a spot. It seems like we'll have a few.

Managers so far:
Tingkai
Asher
Kontiki

Maybe we should send invites to some of the other canucks, especially Flubber and Richelieu (sp?).

[notyoueither]

Yep. It's about that time.

[Sparrowhawk]

I'd like to be in again as I enjoyed this last year (well most of it anyway ) but I am going to be busy quite a bit until November.

Please keep me on the list however, as it doesn't take too much time weekly to set rosters once a week, so I should be able to do that until November I think. (and then catch up after that) So the only really difficult part will be keeping up with the draft, but last year went very well, so I hope that isn't an issue either.

But if adding me means that the final list has one too many, I am happy to be the one to sit out this year.

I'd rather use a team of scrubs to round out the league than tell someone they have to sit out, especially people who stick with it and enjoy the game.

In

What's the timing on this thing? I'm going away for two weeks starting tomorrow evening and won't have any internet access. I know we won't get the draft going that soon, but I don't want to miss registering a team.
