Hi all,

Everyone has auto-renewed, but everyone needs to respond here so that we can ensure every team has an active manager and replace them if not.

Also, I know I brought it up last year, but you may want to look at the powerplay scoring settings for Flyers League.
Currently a goal is worth 2 points, an assist is 1 point. A powerplay goal is set to 2 points, a Powerplay assist is set to 1, and a PP point is another 1. The problem is that anytime a PPG is scored yahoo counts it as a (G)(PPG) AND (PPP), meaning an ES goal is worth 2 points, while a Powerplay goal is worth a whopping 5 points. Meanwhile a shorthanded goal is worth only 3 (2 from G and 1 from SHP).
If people want to keep it the way it is, that's fine, but just seems a little wild that a guy who scores 2 even strength goals and 1 even strength assist would get the same amount of points as a guy who scores one single PPG.
I would suggest removing the PPG and PPA categories and solely keeping the 1 extra for (PPP).

I'm in favour of the change. It was something I inherited from the old league that always seem too heavy on the PP (hence why PPP as a category isn't counted in League 2).

I've put in a modified version of the above proposal:
- Lowered PPG to 1 point from 2
- Lowered PPA to .5 point from 1
- Removed PPP

This now makes scoring as follows:
ES Goal - 2, PPG - 3, SHG - 3.5
ES Assist - 1, PPA - 1.5, SHA - 2.5

I've made a similar change in league 2, dropping PPG from 2 to 1 and PPA from 1 to .5. I also changed SHP from 2 to 1.5 to keep it in line between the two leagues.

Sound good? It does about the same with a little more emphasis on goalscoring. And just to clarify CanadianSniper's post, SHG were 3.5, not 3 as any SHP gives you 1.5 not 1. It doesn't change the basic premise of the post but wanted to be clear if the math wasn't adding up.
