    Default Need a new website for my league. Really want to fire CBS. Help!

    We have been with CBS for 8 years. We were with TQStats before that, but they fired us because our league was too complicated. Not even kidding. They seriously fired us. haha
    I have never loved CBS. They don't have a waiver wire which TQ did, but we worked around it. This year though, CBS has reached all new lows. Anyone else finding this? A bunch of players missing from the database. Terrible at returning questions. Canned responses when they do respond.

    So, does anyone have any recommended sites?

    League details

    12 teams
    Roto with 9 Cats (G,A,STP, PIMs,Shots, SHTOI, BS, Hits, Wins, saves)
    Full auction with contracts
    $350 salary cap for 18F, 12D, 2Utility and 4 goalies
    We have a $110 in FAAB money with a blind auction every Friday.
    We have a minor league draft and a Euro draft. (which is easy to manage, but we are often drafting guys that are 2,3,4 years away from their draft year. it would be nice to have a spot to add them to guys reserve list)

    Some key things we need
    -blind bidding evaluator
    -need to have both salaries and contracts that can be manually manipulated, but tracked for warnings. teams cannot go below $300 or over $400 during the year.
    -warnings if illegal rosters are in play


    Ideally, I would like to reintroduce the waiver wire (all players cut the previous week would be eligible), but that's not that important

    any suggestions where to look? I would like to do a beta test this year and get rid of CBS next year.

    thanks!!

    I still hate the design change Fantrax did a couple years back but they’re still the best I’ve encountered for fantasy hockey.

    I'd recommend Fantrax. I'm in 2 leagues, and it's pretty simple. I double-checked my preferred fantasy football site, and they still only do football (myfantasyleague.com) so it's Fantrax that I suggest.

    Same problem with CBS. Been running our league with them for 13 years and yeah, this year they are terrible. No answers to questions and only Hughes and Kakko available from the 2019 draft class. Screwed up a lot of GMs plans who counted on those players being available. It's a pain in the a** to move a league but I'm afraid CBS is not good enough anymore.

    Does Fantrax support salary cap and weekly waiver wire runs?
    I can't promise I'll try but I'll try to try.

    Fantrax - they have an option where they'll port/copy your CBS league - rosters & settings into their site I do believe.
