The idea of letting everyone be whoever they want is bad, then everyone is going to pick good teams all the time. If you want to make it fair, make the teams random for every game. That way it will mostly be player ability, but there will also be the chance for upsets, and the underdog to take the title.

Since all the good teams are taken, you should consider moving the leauge starting date up a week. Chances are no one is going to want whats left. make registration end this sunday, and start games asap.

I think the best idea for eliminating leauge disparity, would not be to hold a player draft, but instead a team draft, wherein whoever finished last the season previoius gets first pick of teams. That way all the bad players would have better teams, and the better players lesser teams, to even out the leauge. But if you are even considering a player draft, i think its a good idea.

What kind of division/ conference setup are u going to be using? i recommed 4 divisions for each system, with the top in each division getting seeded 1st-4th like the NHL, then the other 12 playoff spots getting filled by the top remaining teams in the leauge, that way u avoid having some people (like edmonton last season) missing the playoffs despite having more points then the other conferences playoff teams.
