We are looking for a new owner to participate in our unique dynasty league. Here are the details of this free-ish (started as a free league, but several owners voluntarily cover the Fantrax costs) league:
24 team roto dynasty league in Fantrax with 8 teams per tier. Bottom team in Tier 1 is demoted to Tier 2. Top team in Tier 2 is promoted to top tier, while bottom team in Tier 2 drops to Tier 3. Tier 3 winner is promoted to Tier 2 and the owner of the last place team in Tier 3 is replaced every year (owner given 1 year exemption from relegation). Started as a 30 team, three tier league back in 2008.
If you need babysitting, this league isn't for you. Worried about tanking? Don't even think about it in this league because the worse you do, the worse your draft position is and string a couple of weak seasons together and you could end up relegated out of the league entirely. The draft order is a little complicated and a lot unorthodox; the new owner of the relegated team is given the first overall pick, followed by the winners of Tiers 3, 2 and 1 respectively. The playoffs will determine the next 12 picks in order of finish with the winner picking 5th overall. The remainder fill in the lower part of the draft. Ruthless, yes, but if you want a high draft pick, make some deals or smart pick ups, max out your GP and finish as high as you possibly can.
Performance based salary cap based on a 3 year decreasing "what have you done for me lately" fancy formula (50% from last season, 35% from the year before and 15% from the year before that) that was created by one of our forum members (Chinny) that is assesses players numbers in each category and it comes up with a value from $5-$200.
11 Categories: G, A, +/-, PiM, SOG, Special Teams Points, Hits, Blocked Shots, Wins, GAA, Saves
Rosters: 4C, 4LW, 4RW, 6D, 1G (19 active roster spots, 82 gp max per) and 16 more spots for you to fill with NHL players or prospects, your choice how you do it. 5 IR spots. 35 player max, keep 32 after playoffs are done. 3 round draft.
We are looking for one new owner for the relegated team from Tier 3. In addition to having the first overall pick (Lafreniere?), here is the rest of the team:
Holtby WSH, C.Talbot CGY, Kochetkov CAR, Sogaard OTT
In addition to the 3 draft picks, the team also owns an extra 3rd round pick. If you're thinking that this teams talent level sucks, remember this is a 24 team league with over 830 players/prospects owned. Overall, this team has some decent pieces in place and with the addition of the top pick in this years draft, could be a decent team with the right owner.
