Off-season Thread

I was just being crude for comedic effect. I am not a fan of their ratings in the past but I am just one guy.

Keep in mind last year it was late June.

All good! Just was excited to see the rerates.

[Jiri Hrdina]

OK great news, the other league shared the full file. Will take me a day or so to load them and then output the files.

Glad it worked out.

I felt like that person who sets up a couple of friends to date and it ends up ending terribly.

@bagopucks. Different people working on ratings then when you were in the league

[TheScorpion]

Outstanding.

Commissioners are under a trade freeze as we review ratings.

For the teams that have more than 25 players on the AHL roster... how did you do it? I get an error saying that since it would go over 25, I can't.

[Jiri Hrdina]

There's a few hacky ways. If you waive someone and then send guys down before they clear, you can exceed the limit.
Since it's the off-season and the dog is off the leash I can manually move guys down if they are 23 or under. email cphltrade.

I know this may not be possible, but any thoughts to having the draft the weekend before? Ie Sat June 17th instead of Sat June 24th?

Specifically from a standpoint of doing the draft before McKenzie's rankings come out is all.

Totally get if folks have planned around the date and time, but thought I'd ask.

[Jiri Hrdina]

Open to it. Thoughts from others?

[BagoPucks]

I prefer the later date just because it gives me more time to prep.

[agulati]

I prefer the later date as well

[Tilley]

I’m out of town the earlier weekend. Part of the plan was taking the CPHL draft into account.

[Jiri Hrdina]

ok we won't switch it then.

[simmer2]

When is the deadline for RFA signings?

[Jiri Hrdina]

I haven't set it yet.
Mid June-ish but I'll communicate a specific date soon.

[Jiri Hrdina]

Folks if you owe someone picks for the upcoming draft it's time to fill those conditions!

Hey guys. Just wanted to say that the rerates that you were attempting to grab were ones that I made. We have a few commishes at FHL. I don’t deal with certain areas of the sim. I deal with making the rerates, however I do not implement them. So when you guys asked for them, I didn’t think I’d need permission from the league to hand them over as I wasn’t handing over the league file. Others were more hesitant to hand over the information after I said I would hand over my rerates.
I was more than happy to hand over the excel sheet with the rerates. In the future, if you wanted to go with my rerates then I’d be more than happy to get something together but it seems like it’ll be more than a couple weeks of work.
Also, a lot of guys have similar reactions to some of the rerates, however we use almost exclusively advanced statistics and tailor them towards how the sim uses each rating. If you look at the definition of each rating, it’s not the same as one would think it should be understood. I hope that makes sense ��

All in all, happy to be here and was only trying to bring an easy way for you guys to handle rerates. I was previously in NHLSL and one season we didn’t get rerates until Christmas and then multi simmed until playoffs. I didn’t want you guys to experience anything like that and having fun in these leagues is the most important thing!
