Regristration for Yahoo Fantasy Hockey for the upcoming season is open. Is there anyone here interested in playing for this season?

 

Conditions:

  • I would like to see 7-10 teams in a league (if there's enough interest maybe 2 teams)
  • Participants must be comitted to playing the full season. DO NOT register & then forget about your team thereby letting it languish.


I've never done one in any sport. Maybe if you described it to me I'd be interested.

Well, basically you draft a group of players (either a live draft, or an autodraft) and based on how they do in real games (goals, assists, shutouts, wins, etc.) you get awarded points. The goal is to have the highest points by the end of the regular season. To reach that goal, you can trade with other GM's, cut players, pick other players up to assemble the best possible team.

And Heatley to the Sharks is huge. Playing beside Thornton, he'll reach Ovechkin like goal totals - 60-65. The only thing is that getting him hurt a lot of their depth - they basically had to get rid of Erhoff, Michalek and Cheechoo (although at his recent production, he's probably a slight salary dump) and they have to replace them with league minimum guys. It shouldn't be a problem if they can spot those guys easy minutes, or a low amount of minutes, but that just means the big 3 play a lot more, and have the possibilty of being worn down quicker.

What do you think Spire?
