Hey BFHLers
Off season is hopping with excitement and I would like to take the opportunity to welcome Lisa as the new manager for the Earthquakes.
First few orders of business involved moving the team from one fault line across to ocean to another, rebranding as the West Coast Killer and picking up the pieces of a neglected and crumbling expansion franchaise.
The Commissioners have voted regarding prospect activations.
Starting NEXT yr (2013-2014), if a prospect is rated, he will be activated (and is not at the discretion of the BFHL GM). This will have implications on your cap hit obviously, so make sure GMs manage it THIS year and keep in mind which prospects may potentially register for their relevant cap hit.
As a quick reminder, prospects that are activated will follow the NHL contract.
Feel free to ask us if you have any questions or want further clarifications.
Hey Everyone!
What better way to enjoy this fantastic sunny weather we're now having (Vancouver) than to think about hockey??
I wanted to inform everyone that we're ready to start thinking drafting activities on the 23rd of July. Here's the list so you can start researching a little bit.

Alright, finally got things set up for the off season! Thanks everyone for a great season. Interesting how just paying a little bit more attention to your team can do wonders for your season!
Rumblings are the following players may be available for trade:
Alex Elder
Dustin Brown
Alex Steen
Corey Perry.
Trade offers are apparently being emailed in.
First of all, congrats to Nokians for a great final... In the end, goaltending was the difference.
Enclosed May 2012 keeper league rankings. http://www.thehockeynews.com/articles/47207-May-keeper-league-player-rankings.html
BFHL has tallied up the number of players on the list per team. Total "value" as determined by THN and the average "value" per player owned by each BFHL team. Given there are 300 players on the list for an aggregate pt total of 19,866, you'd expect each BFHL team to average 15 players on average, with the average player getting 66.2 pts.
Updated for Spring 2012.
With the expansion teams starting to accumulate prospects, the field is getting tighter. Compared to Fall 2011, a significant number of prospects have graduated into the NHL (examples include Adam Larsson, Ryan Johansen, Oliver Ekman-Larsson, Jonathan Bernier, Sean Couturier, Erik Gudbrason, Cody Hodgson and many more).
Three players in the top 50 have not been drafted by a BFHL team to date. These players may attract significant free agency interest this summer, should they be made available.
Ok I put Saturday in the calendar but people are bored including myself! So will start simming playoffs tomorrow. Yes I gave the off days as planned for a Saturday start. The play off links are live under League Out Puts and the league file i
