MESSAGE FROM
THE COMMISSIONER
The trade deadline has passed with 12 deals
this block alone, the busiest deadline in years and even a few decent
size ones as some teams were really sellers and a few went all in to
make a go of it. Just 6 weeks left in the regular season, so the
playoff races will be heating up, at least in the Prince of Wales
conference. Right now St. Louis, Arizona and NY Rangers all have
sizable leads over the pack and then only Washington is really out of
it at this point. From Philly who is 4th in the conference
at 64 points to New Jersey who is 11th at 55 points, just 9
points difference so could be any combination of teams still in the
playoffs over there. The Campbell Conference is just the opposite as
the top 8 teams are pretty clear with Edmonton in 8th place
16 points ahead of Dallas in 9th as the fight with Toronto,
LA and Calgary for the 2nd spot in the lottery (yeah,
Washington is that far back of everyone). So, this block could see
changes in the POW while the Cambell conference likely will see teams
clinching playoff spots by the end of block 8.
Block 8 is
ready to go and the updated league file and Excel file is on the
website. Remember that all
injuries this year are coaches decisions BUT all players are limited
to the exact number of NHL games from last year, so plan accordingly.
If you are sending the same lineup for all 8 games then just a
regular coach should work. If you want to set specific lineups for
each game, then you need to use the Daily Lineups as it gives you a
lot more flexibility. As soon as you have your coach set for your
first 4 road games, please send that out to the list (and list who the
coach is for so it is easier for teams to keep the ones they need).
Also, I would ask you PLEASE include your 4 home strats as well
both for your sake and mine as if I have to sim your home games for
any reason I will just let the game set up your strat if none is
defined and you will have to deal with any penalties later on.
I am going to continue using
the strat file page and upload everyones coaches to the website like I
did in the past so they are easy to find when needed.
**** IMPORTANT
- Action PC Game File Update dated 10/16/2024.
You need to send out game exports as well as boxscores for all 4 home
games by the second Sunday of the block at 9 pm This is MANDATORY,
both the exports
AND boxscores please.
Game summaries are nice, even if it’s just one quick comment
for all 4 games, just adds to the league and makes it easier for
everyone to see what is going on.
If I do not receive game exports after sending updates on
Saturday and Sunday, I will send one more request directly about an
hour before the deadline on Sunday.
Unless I get a request for an extension of time, I will wait
til the deadline and about 30 minutes later I will sim games so I can
get new files out before I go to bed Sunday night.
