    Default Making new league- trade deadline?

    What day to people use for their deadlines out there- what works best? Also when is the nhl de\adline.

    Im torn if it should be before the trade deadline or after. If its before youre kind of gambling on a few names moving- but if its after you have time to adjust...

    My league has year-round trading, we suspend trading during our playoffs but otherwise its open for business. No good reason to make it harder for people to trade, IMO.

    Mine has the deadline 24 hours after the NHL deadline to allow GMs to adjust for real world. As we don't have a playoff season, we unfreeze at the end of the last game of the season.

    Our deadline is always 4 weeks before the playoffs start, which is generally always after the NHL trade deadline.

    This helps avoid player dumping by fringe teams to power houses as they are still somewhat still in the mix for playoff contention.

    I usually set mine at about 5-7 days after the real-world deadline.

    Why does your league need a deadline?

    Well its going to be a dynasty with big rosters and limited waiver moves so I was kind of hoping to avoid "gauge" trades where an active team can trade off half his roster as an overpayment to get an edge during the playoffs. Does that make sense? Or am I overthinking it?
