CPHL Supplemental draft
Folks,
As you know our draft is fast approaching.
Since this falls before the NHL draft, each year there are players drafted in the NHL not picked by a CPHL team.
For those new to the league, and as a reminder, the way we deal with this is through the supplemental draft. This occurs over days after the NHL draft where teams select.
The intent of this is to give some of the more asset weak organizations a chance to pick up some prospects.
The last 2 years, a former GM (Hes) performed an analysis to identify which teams should participate in this draft.
However he is no longer with the league, so instead I'd like to propose that teams opt in or out of the draft. I would encourage teams to be honest about their asset base and only participate if they feel they are in the bottom third of the league from an asset base POV. That way the draft has much of an intended impact as possible.
So please post in this thread by next Friday 11:59 PM Calgary time if you are opting in or out. Those that don't post will be opted out.
We will then randomly set the order, using a snake draft approach, and kick off the draft via a thread the Monday after the NHL draft.
Questions?
Oh - the Wild are opting out.
