Default Draft day: June 27 (10 am MST)

Hey folks
With the NHL's announcement yesterday, we are moving forward with our off-season schedule, with the draft up first.
Our draft will be on Saturday, June 27th at 10 am Calgary time. Please save the date and time.
We are also interested in seeing if folks want to do the draft via zoom. Could be fun, but we want to make sure everyone is able to use zoom.
Please chime in if you have any opinions on that or concerns.

Is that the Canada Day long weekend? If so, can we move it back to the 20th?

Canada Day isn't until the Wednesday, what kind of long weekend do you get?

Well I don't know about you but I like to take a couple days off around a stat holiday to make it a true break!

Doubt I'll be available that Saturday leading into July 1, that's prime camping/fishing time.

The only comment I would make about the 10am start time is it makes me feel that much more guilty about having a beer

6pm over here. No guilt at all

date is fine by me. Regarding Zoom, I have no strong feelings either way. I'll be in if you guys want to use it.

I think what we could do is have the draft through a chatroom like usual and then have an extra zoom if people want to use it.

Having 3 different channels will be too much (Zoom, Chat and the board).
The board is required for a paper trail and tracking.
So it's Board+zoom or Board+Chat.

Then I think the chat will be more universally accessible and it should take precedence.

Yup if it's one or the other, I'd vote chat.

27th will work. I'm fine with either format but seems like chat will be easiest for everyone.

I was hoping for zoom for the fun factor. Especially with the time difference. 1:30pm is prime drinking time in NL. But if the chat is easier for everybody be I am fine with that. I can still get drunk I just can’t heckle the picks as well as I could in live video.
