Draft will start Saturday, May 16th, 10 AM PST. Cap will be at $80 mil. Draft order will be determined by a random number generator. First few rounds will have a 6 hour time limit per pick

Right now, just gauging how much interest there would be for a complete fantasy draft. IC did an amazing job running the mock draft/offseason and everyone who participated had a ton of fun. Now that has ended, I thought this would be a fun way to kill the time.

Feel free to throw in any other ideas.

Overview and Rules
- Every player will be in play that's eligible to play in the NHL, including the 2015 draft.
- Consensus vote will determine if we use the players current contract, or ignore them.
- There will be two drafts, a player draft and a staff draft.
- Depending on how many people sign up, we can decide if we want to limit the player pool or not.
- Person with the most vCash will get to determine where they draft. The rest will be randomized (or the person that paypals me $50...)
- Team is first come first serve. Unless we get 30 people, any NHL team (past or present) can be picked.

Player Draft
- Snake Draft
- Trades are allowed

Staff Draft
- To keep it simple, only GM and coach are available.
- Staff draft will go in reverse order of the player draft.

I'll try to be as active as possible, but if anyone else wants to volunteer and run it or help run it that would be great.

I'll join if there's some interest. I say even if we get 30 players, we should allow any team name (past/present) since it doesn't really matter. It'll be the Wild relocating and so on.

I'll take the Whalers.

I'm in, while the Montreal Maroons would set up a gimme draft pick

I'll go with California Golden Seals because what says "Hockey" better than...

I'm hoping to get at least 15 teams, ideally 20-30. We'll give this 3-7 for signups.

Will it be a 20 or 23 man roster?

23

never been in a fantasy draft like this but i'll join if people are needed.

Join! I haven't done one either, just thought it would be a cool concept.

I'd join but I've never done anything like this, and am forgettable and generally unreliable

Phones have reminders!

If we can get to 15, worst case is we each get 2 teams. Let whoever picks their draft position first then gets what is left at 30. 2nd then gets 29th choice, 3rd gets 28th, etc to whoever gets to pick their 1st team's spot 15th then picks for their 2nd team's position 16th.

We don't need 2 teams each. Could just go with just 15
