Season 1 free agency talk

there could be some damn good Free Agents available: on my chicago team at this point i would lock up Turris,lupul and either kunitz or nash i like nash more but kunitz should be higher then 84 but potentially that leaves

nash90/kunitz 84
vermette 83
green 85
anderson 86 just to name a few available

on toronto id lock up staal,spezza, keith at this point leaving

eriksson 86
erat 84
johnson 85
goligoski 83 just to name a few available

this is just my teams!!

ya it could be good I don't see a lot of guys locking up there goalies so I see at least 1 team losing there starting goalie

im going to go into chat when i do it to and post who became a free agent from each team as i go for anyone that doesn't want to wait for the final list to be posted

awesome   I will try to be there for that

lol i know your pumped for it

I'll play;

On Carolina I'll lock up Malkin, Skinner, Bergeron. That would leave Heater, Wilson, phillips.

Dallas I'll lock up Both Sedins, Franzen, Garrison. That would leave Mezaros, Bolland, Williams

how are you deciding who goes on each team? the hat draw with names on it again? if so, we could almost do a live viewing no? could be an entertaining theme!

Isn't it based on where you finish in the standings? Random would totally throw things for a loop, lol.


Stanley Cup winning team getting the best FA or something, hah.

no I meant how is it being decided which players from our team are getting selected from FA....

unless what you're saying is 30th place team gets to choose ANYONE that isnt protected from ANY team.

Is that how it's working? or is evil just plucking 3 players per team at random and then the 30th place team gets to choose from that.

You have opened my eyes though and I kind of like 30th place gets to choose ANYONE not protected. Could create some nasty rivalries !

Not what I meant, that would totally cause chaos though, lol. I'm pretty sure it's how you said. Evil picks 3 unprotected players, and then 30th gets to chose from there.


Also, how does the draft work? Same way as WTP? Worst overall record over the course of a disk of nhl gets the 1st pick?
EDIT: And will that 1st round pick be protected in some type of way so that you don't lose your 1st rounder to FA in his 1st year?

I would imagine it would be just by names out of a hat, like you said. That would be most fair, anyways.

If u have 32 players on your team i take the 3 locks out leave 29 plays each player is assigned a number 1-29 i use the site random.org set the peramiters from 1-29 and hit generate 3 times and whoever those 3 players have those assigned numbers are your free agents

Drafting will be 30th-1st in all 3 rounds
