Any interest in this? I could possibly learn how to start a league and whatnot.

Haemish usually handles the league commish stuff. I'm sure he'll see this thread soon.

Of course, I am in for a third year.

I say bump saves back up to 5. I forget why it was even taken down to 4 pts in the first place.

Either way, it didn't make a whole lot of sense to me, especially since I had some of the winningest goalies in the league last year, but they weren't at the top of the listings.

Personally, I liked it when it was a full point per save.  Kolzig was a top five goalie at the time!

Please adjust the scoring so goalies don't score 5x as much as everyone else. Last year was a mess.

I've made changes to the goalie stat modifiers.

G (5), A (3), +/- (1), PIM (.1), PPP (2), SHP (3), GWG (1), FW (.1), W (5), L (-2), GA (-1), SV (.275), SHO (5)

Wins are now worth 5 points, losses are -2 and saves are .275. I did a few changes, and saw that the top goal scorer was worth around 600 points for the season, and so jiggered it so that the top goalie was worth around 600 as well. I want a goalie to be as important as the top scorer. I see in last year's league, the goalie was worth almost twice what the top scorer was.

I am wondering how you came up with each save being worth .275 points....sort of an odd number, yes?

I'm just happy actual Wins are worth more again. Do you know how much I hated having goalies on my team who won tons of games, but were outscored by guys who lost more, won less, but garnered more points through saves?

The .275 was an approximation. I tried .25, the best goalies were worth about 550 points, I tried .3 and the best were well over 660 points, so I went right down the middle and that gave me the number I wanted.

It still means Marty Brodeur and Roberto Luongo were the #1 and #2 in the league respectively, they just weren't worth over 1000 points each.

Draft tomorrow! Don't forget to pre-rank your players (although the Yahoo preranks aren't as bad as they are for football). I have 150 guys ranked; hopefully I will remember to be online for the draft.

I like to do it anyway so  can set the draft screen for my rankings instead of Yahoo's. Makes live drafting a bit smoother. Also saves me in case I totally space and forget the draft  :-D

I think I did pretty good, but my hockey knowledge has slipped since the strike. I think my goalie corps is rock solid, which means Marty or Nick is due to blow out a knee or something.
