25 man rosters: 17 starters (5 D, 4 LW/c/rw), 3 bench, 3 ir, 5 minors
$300 in-season cap, $250 auction cap, FAAB once a week
in-season cup, payouts spread throughout top half
constitution below:
Auction
Everyone has $250 to buy 25 players with. 20 will be on the active roster, while 5 will be in the minors. You must buy all 25.
Minors
To be eligible for the minors roster you must be 24 or younger and have played 50 or fewer NHL games. Once a player plays the 51st game, he is no longer minors eligible and must be promoted to the active roster or dropped.
Cap
At the auction the cap is $250 but during the season the cap is $300. This is to give room for free agents (mentioned below) and trading (for example late in the season you want to trade for an overpaid veteran who still is producing you can, assuming you find a team who will take on a prospective keeper). You cannot go over $300 for any reason.
Auction, Year 2
At the end of the season, all transactions are locked. Two weeks before the next auction you must submit your list of players to keep.
Any previously auctioned player that plays 10 or more games, their price is 2020 auctioned salary + $3. Even if they have been dropped and picked up, their salary remains what it was at the auction.
If it is a player was picked up from free agents, it is their salary plus $8 the first year, then back to the yearly $3 rise the years following.
Free Agent Process
It will run once a week on Monday at 3 PM EST. Throughout the week you can put in bids on a player. The winning bid will be $1 more than the 2nd highest bid (it's a blind system)...so if I bid $9 and someone else bid $44, they get the player at $10. That $10 price becomes his salary. Keeping free agents will be slightly different than keeping auctioned players.
If someone was auctioned and dropped, you must pick them up at minimum at their auctioned salary.
Lineup Changes
You can change your lineup twice a week: leading up to Monday for Mon-Thurs and leading up to Friday for Fri-Sun.
Matchups
Each matchup will be 2 weeks long and will be a doubleheader*.
*depending on how many owners join the league
Scoring
The team with the most goals gets 1.5 wins. Same with assists. The other categories (SOG, blocks, hits, takeaways and corsi) are worth 1 win.
Payout
The payout scale will be very dispersed to encourage competition outside the very top. Assuming a 20-team league with each person paying $50 toward the pool it will look like this
In-Season Cup, will be played over the final 2 months of the season and all teams entered 1st-$75 2nd-$50 3rd-$25
if we have fewer teams, the numbers and spots will change but the idea will stay the same
Cup
With 4 periods remaining in the season (2 months), we will play the Cup. This Cup is a soccer style in-season tournament in a way as it's in addition to the regular season which is going on at the same time.
The first period (2 weeks, remember) will see all 20 teams involved. At the end of the period a rotisserie league table will be consulted (custom period tables are easy to find on the standings tab) and the bottom 5 teams knocked out.
15 left starting fresh in the second period, 5 will be knocked out over the next period.
10 left, 5 more knocked out and we reach the final.
5 teams remain, 3 make money but only 1 wins the Cup.
