My first roto league....this should be interesting.
Welcome to the Dobber Entry Smythe!
This thread is created to enable managers (and even some non-managers) to chat about the league in general, the draft, teams and even smack talk.
The one request is that any league questions/issues remain on the league board.
A reminder of the settings:
Yahoo, One-year, Rotisserie
Daily lineups, Weekly FAAB w/ Continual rolling list tiebreak

The live draft is set for Monday, September 25th at 9pm Eastern.
Here is the draft order:
1 - Elliot's Superb Team
2 - evans334
3 - Steve's Cool Team
4 - Laine and the Lamb
5 - StuntMan12
6 - Wesley's Team

8 - Tylerandhobbes
9 - Harry Holecheckers
10 - Duncan Destroyers
11 - finnys full cups
12 - Dunnders Renegades
13 - (dummycommishspot)
Draft results will be posted and I encourage managers to share their thoughts post-draft and throughout the season.
Good luck and have fun!

Excellent thank you. I like the concept.
We are limited to 82 games per position right? I didn't see that in the above league summary.
And additionally, can you explain what this means: Weekly FAAB w/ Continual rolling list tiebreak
Again something we've not used in my previous roto leagues

Yeah, I'm pretty sure it's 82 game per position.
Here ya go!

Use FAAB (Free Agent Acquisition Budgets) waiver priority
Each manager is given a budget to bid on unclaimed players that are in waivers. The default budget is $100, but the commish of a Private League can adjust the budget as they see fit.
Bids are blind, so other managers can't see what your bid is.
Highest bid at the end of the waiver period wins the player.
The winning bid is removed from that manager's budget.
Ties are broken by Continual Rolling List waiver priority.Use Continual Rolling List waiver priority
All managers are ranked from highest to lowest priority to determine who wins a waiver claim. The initial rank is determined by the league's draft. In Live or Autopick Drafts, the last draft position gets 1st rank and in Offline Drafts, the last to register gets 1st rank.
When a claim is successful, that manager drops to the bottom of the priority list.
You can view your waiver rank standings on the "League" page, in the "Waiver" column.

^Well explained.
The hardest part for FAAB is that the first couple weeks... those without experience don't really know what a good "bid number" is.
There are 25 NHL weeks, so you basically have about $4 per week to spend.
Most weeks, teams don't need to replace any of their players.
But sometimes guys go down with injury and a real nice sleeper (or goalie replacement!) is available.
Some of the past years of leagues (in the Your League Chat threads) have posts listing some FAAB winning bids.
If you are just kind of making a subtle change, maybe your weakest forward for a decent waivers player, you probably bid between $1-$5.
However, if you think he is on NOBODY's radar, you can leave it at $0 and get him for free if nobody else makes a claim.
Sometimes an NHL team might flex in a new winger on the top line (say LW1 for San Jose) - and surely 3-5 GMs will notice that and make claims - that's where it gets fun... blind bids might be $5-$15 range depending on how long and how well somebody thinks that player might pan out.
If goalies are in high demand... and somebody, say Bobrovsky, goes down for season... you'll like see veteran GMs bid anywhere from $10-$50 to try to get Korpisalo (and his starts, wins, saves etc.)
That'll all come with experience of playing - but you could get a bit of jump by looking at past season threads!
Highest one I think I saw in the Smythe league last year was $36 (just off the top of my head).

Hope you're all ready for the draft tonight! Good luck and have fun!
Am preparing my list right now for the draft! Ain't no expert when it comes to roto leagues BUT am going to actually prepare this year. Shooting from the hip is never a good idea.
