HFOIL Mock Entry Draft Game 2011- 5 Hour Rotation now!

[DousedInOil]

iCanada gets Buffalo and BlowbyBlow gets Dallas! Please make a HQ and read the rules

On the rules: The Jury of your peers/signing thing is needlessly convoluted IMO.

Games like this should be kept as simple as possible. We'll be lucky to get half the posters in on time to make their selections, let alone "vote" on whether a signing is feasible.

You don't need to have half the poster in to say whether or not a signing is feasible. Like three people would be good enough. Someone signs Richards for five million? not feasible. 6.5+? Sure.

Easy peasy.

Eh... I still prefer the "extending the former contract" rule, with 15/% increase for RFA's (basically, Qualify them).

[Soli]

This game pretty much ends around Round 5-6. After that, nobody really cares to see what happens after and UFAs and RFAs "signings" are moot.

Unfortunate, all this build up and very little in the way of a conclusion.

[DousedInOil]

Don't get too caught up on the details. The main focus of this thing is the draft and trading is just a bonus. The rules are just there so that players aren't signed for considerably less then what they are making and to prevent teams from trading away all-star calibre players just for the sake of picking up a 5th round pick.

Also if you come to a deal with another team you can PM me but it won't be announced until trading begins tomorrow.

[jumptheshark]

just to let you guys know--I am heading PAris friday so I will be off line starting at about 8pm Thursday---so if you have a trade offer for TO get them in before I vanish

[DousedInOil]

Rumours out of Calgary are suggesting that Jarome Iginla may be on the move to Boston as soon as the trade freeze is lifted. The new GM "DousedInOil" had this to say.

"Jarome is a great part of the team but our new staff are listening to any and all offers. No one is untouchable right now and if we see something that we think will help our team in the future then we will persue that option."

Sources close to the flames are suggesting that the asking price for the star winger is a series of picks and prospects.

[SK13]

A top-8 pick in the draft will land someone Brent Burns.

Does anybody know a good site that ranks prospects beyond the top 30 or 100 so that I know who to pick in the later rounds?

ORGANIZATIONAL NEEDS

• Last remaining needs are physical 3rd & 4th line players.
  
• #1 Center (Brad Richards); Signing
  Comments: so hard to find #1 Centers with leadership abilities, also has alot left in the tank
  
  
  
• First Line C/RW (Pierre Marc Bouchard)
  
  Comments: can play wing or Center, with acquisition of Bouchard you have now 2 strong lines (this one will be another strong defensive line)
  
• #2 Center Martin Hanzal
  
  Out: Mike Ribeiro
  
• Need 2 top wingers (1st-2nd line) Michael Ryder
  
  Comments: can provide goal scoring also with Eriksson (very unheralded and underrated for his defence & offense) this will be a crazy good line. Bottom Line: Ryder made Benn expendable
  Out: Jamie Benn
  
• #1 Dman (strong 2 way D-man) acquired 2
  Rostizlav Klesla
  
  Comments: Needed someone that could be a top 4 guy
  James Wisniewski
  Out: Stephan Robidas
  
• Power play D-man (Alex Goligoski) & Brian Duboulin (can play either unit)
  Out: Trevor Daley
  
• Defensive Defenseman w/limited offense
  Yannick Weber
  Out: Mark Fistric (was a more physical D-man hopefully got that with) Klesla
  
  Comments: Duboulin will be a hell of a D-man top 4 rating right now, he only gets better and handles unbelievable amounts of pressure.
  Weber only needs to be good not great and this will help him excel
  Wisniewski is a jack of all trades (similarities to Ian White)
  
  
  
  
  

Untouchable Players

• Brenden Morrow
• Jack Campbell (no offers)
• Kari Lehtonen (entertaining offers)
• Steve Ott (will entertain offers)

TRANSACTIONS Pierre-marc Bouchard & 10th overall 2011 1st round selection (14th overall), 2011 1st Round Selection (17th overall) via Montreal & Scott Glennie James Wisniewski, Yannick Weber, 2011 1st round selection (17th overall) 2012 3rd round selection Stephan Robidas & Jamie Benn Michael Ryder 2011 5th round selection Brian Duboulin Mark Fistric & Trevor Daley Martin Hanzal & Rostizlav Klesla Mike Ribeiro & Niklas Grossman

If you have their negotiating rights... now. Heh.

If they're another team's UFAs, u can either try and trade for their rights or you're probably SOL because I don't see us going past that draft in this game into Free Agency.

[dixs35]

The Hurricanes have made several signings (IF OKAYED)
Re-Signed E. Cole 3yrs-6m Staal/Cole magic undeniable
Re-Signed J. Jokinen 2yrs-6m
Re-Signed J. Pitkanen 4yrs-20m
Re-Signed B. Sutter 4yrs-10m
Re-Signed D. Joslin 2yrs-1.6m
Re-Signed B. Sanguinetti 2yrs-2m
Re-Signed O. Osala 1yr-1.0m

Rumor is they are also looking to package up 3rd and 4th rounders to move back up into the 2nd.
They have also put several players on the block:
Drayson Bowman - Looking for RW prospect as they have a log jam of young LWs/ package with 12th pick to move up(can package with more to move up)
J. Corvo - offer or 3rd/4th line help/ picks
T. Gleason - as part of a package to upgrade defence/picks

NHL BREAKING NEWS

The NHL is reporting a few very important last minute changes to the NHL schedule. With almost everyone having their HQ's setup and only 2 spots remaining the NHL draft will commence friday the 13th! The actual draft selections will be in a different thread that I will create in roughly 24 hours. The two remaining teams will have their draft selections voted upon (first player to three votes) will be selected. This player MUST be on the board and can be veto'd by the commissioners if they feel like foul play was at work.

In addition, trades are now in full effect. Please feel free to trade as much as you like but submit all trades to myself or ThePerfectStorm before posting in this thread.

Best of luck to all participating GM's!
