Should we have a simple yes/no vote on whether to use this as the ranking list?
Was looking through this and it looks great and ready to use. Only concern/ question I have is with the order of picks in the farthest left column, is that based on the picks everyone currently has or what? Cause Columbus had the 20th or so pick, Edmonton appeared to be around 27 or so. I'm confused whether I'd be picking w/ the Columbus pick (which I traded away) or Edmontons (which I acquired).

That's the current draft order for the real NHL, final changes are dependent on the playoffs.
If we gather the picks from every team here that they currently hold, we'll be able to modify that accordingly.

Ok cool. Have we come to a decision yet on how we're doing the time procedure? 1 hour for each pick or a half hour? And just to be certain, the list in the spreadsheet is the "Uniform draft order" we'll use for people who want autopick or don't make one themselves?

We haven't set timing yet. I'm still considering personally, while I'm working on it.
The players are in rank according to the mock draft list though.

Ok sounds good. Will we continue debate on the draft format/ timing/ schedule of picks or is that something you want to work on yourself then propose?
Ok so more than half of the GMs have voted in the poll set up regarding time for each pick and the uniform draft list. Everyone seems to be in support of the uniform draft list given so that will be a part of the final draft plans.
However, the timing we may have a new idea for. Rangersfan and JDP both supported a scaled time system where first round picks get a certain block of time, but for each round, that decreases such that each round goes by faster and faster. What I'm thinking is maybe we go two to three hours for the first round per pick. The second round would decrease to about 1-1.5 hours per pick. Third round 45 mins to an hour, then the 4th through 7th rounds can all be 30 mins to expedite the process. That's just my initial idea for time, if you have any suggestions, feel free to let me know and in more than willing to accept criticism on this

Looks good to me, but maybe 3.5 or 4 hours for the 1st round, but i don't really care that much.

Maybe we should have a poll on this? But most people would most likely agree anyways I would think...I do like the idea myself

12-8 for 1.5 hours, 8 GM's in favor of longer than 1.5 hours (which we could extrapolate to 12ish). Which is significant enough to justify 3 hours.
We were voting to see what time GM's preferred, not to see which would win anyway.
Is a possibility. It makes sense and might be practical, as most trading would be in the 1st round I would imagine.
I'll look at scheduling options later today and see what could work.

I'll start a poll for the scaled time idea soon here.

Start a poll regarding the scaled time blocks?
Propose:
3 hours round one
1.5 hours round two
1 hour round three
45 mins round four
30 mins rounds five through seven

This will end up being a 3 week process. These would be the schedules for the first 3 rounds, and then we can condense the last 4 rounds into a single, third week.
Also, to help with the early morning Pacific picks, once the last pick for a day is made, the first team for the next day may post their pick.
That way nobody has to pick really early in the morning, as they can pick the night before instead.
Basically the first pick of the next day gets all of the off hours to make their pick.

has anyone proposed the idea that we have everyone go into a google doc to make their selections? it could be hard to track but I guess we can do it on an honor system. we can have them then submit their pick into a thread so nobody can cheat and re-pick.

you can also track who types what on a google doc so we could know very easily who cheated

right. I think that having a Google Doc is the most efficient way to track the Entry Draft

Wouldn't it be better to have everyone submit their selection on an official draft pick thread, with one person (a BOG member) adding the pick to a google doc just so everyone can see who has been picked
