You can count me on to give this a go!
Edit: we are cancelling this league for this year and will try again next year.
An NHL wins league with a couple of big twists. Pick your teams with one eye on the future!
Rules:
- Snake draft where you select NHL teams based on how you project them to do wins-wise in the regular season
- Each NHL team can be drafted a total 3 times
- No manager can draft one NHL team more than twice
- Number of rounds will depend on number of managers. With each NHL team eligible to be selected 3 times, there will be up to 96 picks (32 NHL teams x 3).
Keepers:
- Each manager can keep 3 of their team selections in the offseason - but it must be 3 different teams.
- Trades allowed in the offseason
Draft:
Snake draft. # of rounds depends on number of managers.
An example first round:
1. Sabres A
2. Sabres B
3. Coyotes A
4. Ducks A
5. Sabres C
6. Coyotes B
7. Sharks A
8. Senators A
9. Kings A
10. Coyotes C
So NHL teams can be picked until A, B and C are gone.
We want to get the draft going as soon as possible on the forum. Hopefully we finish before the start of the regular season if not shortly after.

Sure, I'll get in on this. Hopefully, that's not the actual first round picks we'll make!
Might make it more interesting as a low ball game. Winner is the one with the fewest wins.

I promise I won't be jealous if you join this league as well as Dobber NHL Wins Pool!
I don't get it but I'm in assuming there is no ongoing management and it's just a draft and forget league.
Can I draft the Sabres twice?
Yes, it's just like the NHL wins league except instead of a team being off the board after one team picks them, they can be taken a total of 3 times. So the top teams will likely be picked several times early in the draft.

I think at this stage we will have to cancel the league and try again next year. I'll get the thread out earlier next time.
