Finally, Yahoo has allowed signups to begin for their Fantasy Hockey Leagues. I have one set up for f13ers, with 12 spots right now, in a points only configuration. I'm open to changing this to either rotissiere or head-to-head if there is a leaning any particular way. I totally made up the points totals, so they are open to interpretation as well. Go to Yahoo Sports Fantasy Hockey page and get a team. Leauge name is Bat Country, ID# 18997, password is catass2victory. Make a team. I've set the thing for a live online draft, Sat., Oct. 1st at 5 p.m. EST (4 CST, 2 PST), but that can be changed if we decided on a different day quickly enough. Here are the relevant bits: Positions: C, C, LW, LW, RW, RW, D, D, D, D, G, G, BN, BN, BN, BN, IR, IR, IR Stat Categories: G, A, +/-, PIM, PPG, PPA, SHG, GWG, FW, W, L, GA, SV, SHO Stat Modifiers: G (5), A (3), +/- (1), PIM (1), PPG (2), PPA (1), SHG (3), GWG (1), FW (1), W (5), L (3), GA (1), SV (.5), SHO (3) Cowboy up!

I don't know who half the players in the league are any more, but I am game.

Wow, I have no clue who Eastern European #51 or Canadian #12 are!
I'm going to lose so bad it'll make football from last year look like a step-up.
EDIT: I'm in.

Finally, a fantasy league with a sport I know.
You shall fall before the might of "with themselves".
Game 1: Ice Monkies play with themselves and lose
Bwahaahahaha.

Ok, it was funny when we used that in highschool and they announced our game with the teachers over the PA as - "Today at lunch in intermural baseball, the teachers play with themselves."

Any tenative draft date? I've never done a fantasy league before, so I should be a pushover.

You'll have to fight me for that. Current and former Coyotes players are the only ones I know.

I've made 2 changes to this league. I removed 1 defenseman from the roster, and changed the draft time.
Yes, I changed the draft time to 1 hour later. It's now Oct. 1st, that's this Saturday, at 5 p.m. CDT, which is 6 p.m. CDT, 4 p.m. MDT, and 3 p.m. PDT. If you can't make it, I'd suggest pre-ranking accordingly.

Holy shit! I had no idea it was coming so soon. I know exactly dick about fantasy hockey- are there any magazines or websites that might be useful? Also, not sure I will be able to make the draft- I am going to a hockey game Saturday night and may have to meet up with some folks early. Perhaps I can start my drinking at the draft...

Do I need to see about changing the time? I think Yahoo has a few more times available. The season starts Oct. 5th, though, so there isn't much time.

FWIW, During the week (Mon-Thur), before 5pm, is no good for me.

Still got spots? If I can make the draft time (seems like you might be changing it) I'd be happy to join, never played fantasy anything though, do I have to do stuff once the league starts?

Still spots left (3 I think). Yes, you do have to so somethings once the league starts, like set your lineups. Though you can certainly set your lineup the first day and let it run, if someone gets injured, you'd need to come back and sub someone else in. Same thing if someone starts sucking. I check my fantasy leagues daily, about 10-15 minutes worth of stuff, but I like doing that. You could go once a week and still probably be ok if you have a decent team.

It can't be early- I am going to start drinking then (if I remember to make the draft at all).

Luckily no knowledge of the game won't hurt me in fantasy hockey. Autodraft 4tw indeed.

Shit, I'm going to have to autodraft too, as apparently I have a niece's Bday party that starts at 5 pm.

I just want to say that I've never participated in a fantasy sports league before. I'm just going to be picking players that I remember being good.
I am guessing that offensive defensmen will be more helpful than good defensmen?

Could be, but not necessarily. Some will give you decent goals/assists, but have horrible +/- ratings or no penalty minutes. In this type of league, you're going to be trying to balance all the statistical categories, not just the ones that give the most points.
