jakes did this?

Vigilance posted:

What cap are we working with? Next years which is I believe 64 million? Or this years which is much larger?

This years.


Four teams left it looks like.

And to continue being a contrarian I think the idea of drafting coaches is kinda cool. Maybe a supplemental coaching draft after this is all over :o:

We can talk drafting coaches and unsigned prospects as another draft connected with this one. We should see how this one goes and measure its plausibility.

Boston and Edmonton are the only teams left!

Also, before we draft, EVERYONE WITH A TEAM MUST RE-POST IN THE THREAD. You must re-state which team you are and guarantee you will be able to commit to this. I don't want people signing up because it sounds fun and then realizing they work 70 hours a work and can't make any picks. Make this easy for those who really can do it by just being a bystander, please. This is how poo poo like this winds up losing stems and falling flat. I want everyone as involved as possible. And if you aren't sure if you can keep up, you can post and give up your team instead.

So, for now, I am in as the Devils. Everyone else, post your team and whether you're in or out after a second's thought. And those who want to claim Boston or Edmonton, do so.

I've got the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim. I got to school and work some days but I can certainly make picks while I'm at school. It shouldn't be a problem.

Cool. All teams are taken. I just need responses from anyone who has not reposted their confirmation, and I still need one more person for the auto draft consensus team. Then we can set all the rules together and get the draft started.

The following teams must confirm their involvement or they will vacate their positions:

Nashville
Ottawa
Columbus
Phoenix
Los Angeles
Vancouver

I want responses by tomorrow morning latest. I will PM those who are able to receive them.

Sweet. So I PMed everyone except ThinkTank and DOOP, who volunteered as a draft consensus team GM. I need to hear from everyone by tomorrow late morning before work or those teams will be vacated. If someone is just late to respond, he or she can come back and reclaim the team after this happens.

Five teams and one team member. I also need one more volunteer for the draft consensus.

Also, does anyone have any suggestions or issues with the rules in the OP?
