I don't really have a whole lot of time to do recruiting this year. So if you want to play in multiples leagues or have a friend that wants to play, please let me know.

League spots stand as follows:

HHL: 14/16

LSL: 12/20

DLML: 8/14

So, the rest of the year is looking busy for me, so honestly, if you need me for a warm body for the denis lemieux one (I think that’s the one time draft I joined last year) I’ll do it, but honestly it’ll be minimal participation so I would say only throw me in if you don’t have enough people, otherwise I’ll take a rain check this year.

If you were in last year you should have received an invite. Did you get it?

DLML is exactly that, there's no roster setting. It's just the draft and occasionally checking your injuries/waivers.

Just one spot left in the HHL for a new drafter. I'll post ineligible keepers tonight.

I know multiple people expressed interest in that spot. Just keep in mind it's a very active/competitive league. If you're still interested please let me know.

I've got 4 spots in the LSL which is also very competitive, and 3 in the DLML which is a chill league. Does anyone else want in?

Twin Cinema posted:

In HHL, is there anyway to reduce the length of the draft? Like, I think it takes 30 seconds from the time someone makes a pick to the time it goes through. Then goes back to 10 seconds as soon as someone else makes a bid.

Maybe I am the only one who wants a shorter draft, though.

I'll see what I can do.


Sorry for the delay on ineligible keepers. Camping with spotty internet access.

I like my offense although it's hard not to when you get to draft a guy coming off an 150 point season. I drafted more offensive d-men then I usually do in the LSL. Kinda punted hits but it should be a pretty solid team if the goaltending holds up.
