    Once your player is dropped he is available to all, so anyone in your rivals' rosters not currently player can be drafted.

    At the end of the draft period if you cant fit everyone in you will have to drop some of your better players & call up some of the lesser players that didn't make the cut before the season started. Draft whoever right now, but it could be a waste of time if you can't fit them in

    Question: does it matter what our roster structure is during the draft/trade period in terms of tiers or are we good as long as we fit one of the 4 presented structures when all dust has settled (i.e. I drop a T3 player and draft a T1 but by end of the entire period I fit 1 of the 4 structures)?[/size]

    IF IT DOES NOT MATTER, I drop Hawerchuk instead of LaFontaine. This is not terribly important to me however so do not let it hold up the draft if Robbie is later in answering.[/size]

    Make whatever drafts you want right now. At the end if you can't fit all your players into the structures given you will have to drop someone & call up one of your team's original players from the minors

    Evening guys. Sorry this has taken so long to get round to. As you all know my life has just got crazy the past 5 or 6 weeks, but I didn't want to let those of you that signed up for this league down. After this trade period & rom edit the league should be a lot easier to run.

    So what happens now? Well, you will have the opportunity to make adjustments to your roster & then draft & trade players. I will allow you to continue playing through this period to get up to your 28 games, but not beyond. The changes made will come into effect from game 29 onwards. Any games played after this post will not improve your draft position.

    Taking into account DNPs (+2 for each DNP) the draft order looks like this:

    1.1. Buffalo (Jagr68) 6 pts (TUESDAY 28/4 18:00PM ET) TEEMU SELANNE (DROPS DALE HAWERCHUK)

    1.2. Edmonton (Pearate) 24 pts (TUESDAY 28/4 19:00PM ET) SKIPPED

    1.3. New Jersey (Jer) 26 pts (TUESDAY 28/4 20:00PM ET) ERIC LINDROS (DROPS FETISOV)

    1.4. Detroit (Darko99) 38 pts (TUESDAY 28/4 21:00PM ET) SKIPPED

    1.5. LA (Lupz) 38 pts) (TUESDAY 28/4 22:00PM ET) JEREMY ROENICK (DROPS McSORLEY)

    1.6. New York (Skip) 40 pts (TUESDAY 28/4 23:00PM ET) PATRICK ROY (DROPS RICHTER) Up from minors: Tikkanen, Cirella, Andersson; drop Graves, Patrick, Leetch

    1.7. Boston (Texaspachyderm) 42 pts (WEDNESDAY 29/4 13:00PM ET) PIERRE TURGEON (DROPS DONATO)

    1.8. Pittsburgh (Labs66) 46 pts (WEDNESDAY 29/4 14:00PM ET) MARK RECCHI (DROPS KEVIN STEVENS) Up from minors: Jagr, drops Barrasso)

    Any one who doesnt make the deadline will be skipped. Anyone who hasnt picked by the start of the next round will have no changes to their roster.

    We will have 3 draft rounds. You can pick any player you want from the unused teams in the game, so, for example Lupz could select Steve Smith, as no one is playing as Chicago. However, you must follow the skill cap rules in place to keep all teams even, so, Rob Blake for example may have to be dropped to get Smith.

    The roster structure rules were as follows:

    1) "THE SICARIUS": 2 x Tier 1 players, 2 x Tier 2 players, 2 x Tier 3 players + Tier 4 players to complete the roster

    or

    2) "THE FREYDEY": 1 x Tier 1 players, 3 x Tier 2 players, 3 x Tier 3 players + Tier 4 players to complete the roster

    or

    3) "THE PLABAX": 0 x Tier 1 players, 4 x Tier 2 players, 4 x Tier 3 players + Tier 4 players to complete the roster

    or

    4) "THE KINGRAPH": 3 x Tier 1 players, 0 x Tier 2 players, 1 x Tier 3 players + Tier 4 players to complete the roster

    In each draft round you should make your post stating who you are drafting, & which player is being dropped from your roster. For example:

    "RD 1.5 LUPZ (LA) DRAFTS STEVE SMITH FROM CHICAGO. DROPS ROB BLAKE"

    I remind you of how to determine a player's tier using the Blitz draft history:

    PLAYER TIERING SYSTEM
    All players in the game will be "tiered" depending on their Blitz draft history. Players will be categorised as tier 1,2,3 or 4 as follows:

    TIER 1 PLAYERS:
    FORWARDS: Pick 6 (Mario Lemieux) to pick 27 (Russ Courtnall)
    DEFENSMEN: Pick 9.8 (Ray Bourque) to pick 56 (Steve Smith)
    GOALIES: Pick 11 (Roy) to pick 59 (Barrasso)

    TIER 2 PLAYERS:
    FORWARDS: Pick 30 (Fedorov) to pick 79 (Ronning)
    DEFENSMEN: Pick 57 (Larry Murphy) to pick 82.8 (Jeff Brown)
    GOALIES: Pick 60 (Ranford) to pick 71.6 (Cheveldae)

    TIER 3 PLAYERS:
    FORWARDS: Pick 82 (Andreychuk) to pick 132 (Gagner)
    DEFENSMEN: Pick 83.6 (Fetisov) to pick 169 (Lumme)
    GOALIES: Pick 76 (McClean) to pick 113 (Casey)

    TIER 4 PLAYERS:
    FORWARDS: All fowards from pick 138 (Momesso) & below
    DEFENSMEN: All defensmen from pick 171 (Murzyn) & below
    GOALIES: All goalies from pick 135.6 (Hrudey) & below

    Finally, at any point you can drop a player from your roster & call up anyone you sent down to the minors before the season started. Example:

    "Darko (Detroit) drops Paul Coffey. Calls up Dino Ciccarelli"

    Calling up a player from the minors will not cost you a trade pick & can be done at any time in the trade period.

    You are also allowed 3 trades with your rival coaches, which can be made at any point. You might do a straight swap with a tier 1 player for a tier 1 player for example, or maybe you'll combine players, perhaps swapping two tier 2 players for a tier 1 & a tier 3 etc. The only rule is that your roster has to stay within the skill cap structure by the end of the trade period. Anyone who's roster doesn't fit in will have to drop players & call up lesser tier players from the minors at the end to make their roster fit if necessary.

    GLHF!

    Sorry guys. I actually got on last night to start playing only to hear about this. No problem. I have so much going on right now as fortunately my professional life is really starting to take off & I have all sorts of projects in the pipeline. Just crazy & occupying all my time.

    GL to Kgman. I will try to be on as much as possible during Thursday, Friday & the weekend to get Blitz games in, & I will let Raph know if I have enough time free to play classic B.

    Sorry again

    OK, we've arrived at the 1st checkpoint & trade period. I will post all the draft/trade rules tomorrow morning, so if you get more games in tonight i'll let them count.

    So you can all prepare i'll tell you this: Stage one of the trade period will be to make any changes you want to your roster from your current players selected or dropped, so, Detroit for example could call up Dino Cicarrelli from the minors to play the rest of the season.............................but they have to follow the same skill cap rules as previously, so would have to drop a tier 1 player to accomodate him.

    You can get started thinking about that for now, & in the morning i'll post detailed rules

    OK guys. This is the first opportunity i've had to check this since returning from my trip.

    I wanna get into the draft7trade period, so i'm going to give everyone until Monday 20th April (1 week from today) to get as close to the 28 game mark as possible. Next monday anyone short will get DNPs which will affect draft position. I wanna give you that touch longer as I was away & wasn't able to keep on top of things.

    Labs, you're way back bud. Update please?

    Darko with Detroit & Lupz with LA, can you let us know what is happening with you guys please. Thanks

    Posted

    I have now returned from my trip to Europe & am fighting the jetlag. I will be looking to play some exhibs this weekend as I am so out of practice. Next week i'll look to get going with my games. The same counts for Blitz.

    While I was away I neither had the time, nor acceptable hotel internet so I will have to hammer the games out from now.

    Thanks guys. Nice write up AJ

    Great stuff guys. Texas' Boston Bruins are running away with things right now: 18-6 with 4 games to play before the trade period.

    Jer has played 18 with his NJ Devils & Darko has 14 played with Detroit.

    Rest of you need to pick it up a touch so we can get to the 28 game trade period. Keep the games going. I'm going to put a date of Wednesday April 8th to get to your 28. I come back from 2 weeks in Europe then so I won't be able to run any trade periods or edit the rom etc b4 that. Gives everyone more than enough time to get there.
