Just finished our Prospect draft for our 1st year Dynasty league. Players could not have played more than 9 games in the NHL. I had the 11th pick in a 20 team league, ended up with this group of 5.
Mikael Granlund
Ryan Murphy
Joel Armia
Jakob Silfverberg
Nick Bjugstad
Coyle went 2 picks before my 3rd rounder and Hackett went 3 or 4 before my 5th pick.
Brodin, Zucker, Phillips, and Larsson went undrafted.
I'm going to set up a yahoo league probably tomorrow, post your prefered team name here if you are interested, 16 players is what i'm hoping for, will do something like 6fw, 4d, 2g and a 5 player bench.
I have no idea how it's pronounced, as it's Russian. Means "Russian Rocket"... don't probably have to explain that?
EDIT: About the pronounciation, I'd guess something like "Ryss-is-kyee" (I know, Russian is a weird language ).
That went way over my head. I've heard it before, don't know why I didn't get it right away. Your pronounciation sounds/looks right from my very little Russian knowledge.
send some info to the people that signed up, the league max is 16 so far the draft date is set for next sunday not tomorrow at 3pm but we can change that.

Those early afternoons are best for me, as it's night in here (that would be 1 A.M.). My days and evenings are usually quite full.
just post on here if you want to get in i'll pm you the info got 4 so far i'm probably going to go sleep soon for work but will check tonight before work
I can probably make whatever day we choose work, as long as we set it in advance.
And I just saw the little ad for the $20 entry fee leagues...really thinking about doing it. It's only 12 team leagues, so the level of skill on all the players available will be higher. 1st place - $125, 2nd - $50, 3rd - $20. I'm fairly confident I can at least get 3rd to make my money back. And if not...it's only $20. Anybody else doing it?
Any Monday (Class from 8am-8PM I could do after 8 if need be.)
And Oct. 1st (Visiting GF for first time since before state fair).
Tuesday the 27th (Two exams wednesday I'll need to study for)
Tomorrow
What would work
Wed-Friday evenings (after 5)
Tuesday oct. 4th (after 7)
Sunday oct. 2nd.

Pretty much my line of thinking. I'd also like to think I'm more informed than like 70% of hockey fans around the league and that that would give me an advantage, but I guess I don't know haha. Never been in a money fantasy league before. Football or hockey.

3PM Pacific would be 5PM in Minnesota. Just moved out here to Washington for a few months...time adjustments suck

I'm up for doing about as many leagues as possible so I'm in for another if it happens. Willing to try ESPN if that's what people want.
more invites sent please check your inbox and accept or decline if you decided against, i can start up another league if there is enough interest a smaller one or is someone else wants to run one.
also on a side note what does everyone thing of doing a utility player slot and enabling points for hitting and penalties etc?
