BFHL Hockey Simulation League

With the expansion teams soon to wind down their draft, it's time for you expansion guys to get your own guys needing contracts signed up!

No time to update the actual sim yet but I did update it to the lastest Expansion Draft, check it out.  These results have not been checked in detail and I'm looking for a few eyes to scan the list to check for anything wrong (ahem: co-commishes).  Also, look for an announcement from Giants GM, Victor Chan.

The results are as follows (Note Re-Bid Rules in League Rules)

Hey Expansion GM's.

I haven't had much time to fill you in the details for your start in BFHL and I know there's a lot ot get a handle on, but we're here to help you as much as we can every step of the way.  A few notes to consider:

Alright with the Expansion teams well on their way to select their prospects, at the same time, the expansion team draft can start.  I know it's quite a lot of things going on at the same time.  Sorry about that but I've been too busy to get things sorted earlier.  Draft order is reverse of Prospect draft so Tokyo Earthquakes gets to start this time.  Please double check to make sure it's your turn to pick in the right draft since we have two going at the same time now.  The faster we can get through this, the faster we can organize free agency.

I know it's taken a while for me to get organized.  Sorry about that, a lot going on.  However, I just realized that the expansion PROSPECT draft is all ready to go.  Thanks to Bombers, you new guys have a nice list to pick from with some great information to help you decide your prospects.  *NOTE* These are prospects, not necessarily guys that will be playing on your team this year.

So who are the new guys?  In alphabetical order,

Now that some off season activities have started, current GMs have already begun throwing trades around.  This can be hard to work with when you don't know how players are being rated.

We are using this set of ratings found here. You may notice that there is a greater seperation between good players and bad players.

What is hoped with this approach is a bigger distinction between players and teams.

We've compiled the salaries and ratings and ran our own regressions to determine what the fair market value for a player with a certain rating should be.  Below is the visual results for all positions.  Note that we are still working on the salary offer spreadsheet.

Forwards:

HEY BFHL GMs!

Hope your summer is going well, I think it's finally starting in Vancouver!

More importantly, it's that time to get the off season stuff going.  I've been so busy with work, moving/house hunting and more work that I haven't had time to get things going as smoothly as I wanted.  Gonna be a rolling start here.
