Attention GMs:

Please get your team thread up before 12:00 pm EST on Friday, May 10th. (It's ok if it's not stickied by then.) This is also the deadline for team swaps. If you are on this list but do not plan on managing a v4 team, please let me know ASAP. Check the rules thread to see the details that are required in your team description.

The trade market will open Friday, May 10th at 12:00 pm EST and will be open until 11:59 pm EST on Sunday, May 19th. Trades during this period will count toward the offseason limit.

Expansion draft protection lists are due to the BOG (managing member TBD) on 11:59 pm EST on Sunday May 19th. Do not send a list until you are certain that your list is final - you will not be able to edit the list once it is received by the BOG. The list must include (1) your choice of 7-3-1 or 8-1 and (2) your final list of protected players. Exempt players and exposure requirements do not need to be provided to the BOG, but you must comply with the rules or you will be subject to draft pick/player loss.

<strong>NEW MEMBER BOG VOTE:
</strong>
After receiving about twice as many votes as to be expected, we realized that a simple poll will not suffice. So here is another attempt at the New BOG Member Vote. Use your email, your team name, and your CF username. Vote once. Be respectful of the time that it takes to make things democratic.

VOTE HERE: <a href="https://forms.gle/xPM4TGwFz9MosrDC7" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">https://forms.gle/xPM4TGwFz9MosrDC7</a>

This is a re-vote, so even if you voted on the previous poll, you will have to vote again. Voting will run from today until MONDAY, APRIL 29TH at 12pm EST.</div></div>

After receiving 12 of the 18 votes cast in the BOG member election, <a href="/users/Gronk" target="_blank"><a href="/users/Gronk" target="_blank">@Gronk</a></a> has been appointed to the 7th position on the BOG. Congratulations to Gronk and thank you to everyone who put their name in the hat.

Adding onto Dylan's post above, we have 7 other missing picks in 2019!

2nd VAN
2nd STL
3rd DAL
4th WSH
4th PHI
6th TOR
7th BOS

Especially for any GMs that created a page after May 19th, 2018 make sure you're not missing any picks that may have been traded by the team IRL or forgot to add when copying your team. And please for the love of everything holy and sacred, do not, and I cannot stress this enough, <strong>DO NOT CREATE A NEW PAGE WITHOUT THE TRADES FROM THE PREVIOUS PAGE AND OPT TO JUST ADD AND REMOVE ASSETS RANDOMLY</strong>. This is literally how 90% of picks and other assets are lost.

If any picks are still missing by the draft, they will simply be skipped.


Lastly, <a href="/users/A_K" target="_blank"><a href="/users/A_K" target="_blank">@A_K</a></a> and <a href="/users/ricochetii" target="_blank"><a href="/users/ricochetii" target="_blank">@ricochetii</a></a>, figure out which one of you own the 2019 5th COL.

Thanks,

BOG

Round 1 Playoff Results:

<strong>Columbus Blue Jackets vs Washington Capitals
</strong>What a matchup. Both teams went all in on their chances this year, and it is truly unfortunate that this was a first round series because both teams have the firepower to go a long way. The GM voting gave the edge to Washington – CBJ’s defensive prowess washed out Washington’s elite forwards, but the Caps’ edge in goaltending was ultimately too much for the Jackets to overcome. The Washington Capitals are moving on after a stunning 4-3 series win over the President’s Trophy winners.
<em> Winner: Capitals in 7 (W-L-W-W-L-L-W)
</em>
<strong>Boston Bruins vs New York Islanders
</strong>The Islanders stellar goaltending was tested early and often in this series. They failed to contain possibly the deepest lineup in the playoffs. Boston had the edge in 7 of the 8 categories and was in total control from the start of the series. The 2nd seed Bruins are looking to roll through the East.
<em> Winner: Bruins in 4 (W-W-W-W)
</em>
<strong>Toronto Maple Leafs vs Carolina Hurricanes
</strong>I thought this one would be closer than the voting ended up. The home team Toronto gained a slight edge in 6 categories, and although none were extremely significant, the net result was the Leafs at a 75% favorite going into the series. The Canes were fighting hard on the road and jumped out to an early lead, but the Leafs ultimately took the series in what turned out to be an instant classic.
<em> Winner: Leafs in 7 (L-L-W-W-L-W-W)
</em>
<strong>Philadelphia Flyers vs Pittsburgh Penguins
</strong>The battle Pennsylvania was a tough first round matchup for the Flyers, who had dominated the regular season up until the last month – but the President’s Trophy runner-ups are still looking to make a deep run through the East. Pittsburgh was slightly overmatched in this one, and an early 2-0 series lead was too much for the Pens to come back from. No Flyera just yet.
<em> Winner: Flyers in 6 (W-W-L-W-L-W)
</em>
<strong>St. Louis Blues vs Winnipeg Jets
</strong>A midseason change in upper management sent the Jets into a bit of a re-tool, but their roster was no joke going into their first round matchup versus the Blues. Ultimately, the speedy Blues had an edge on both sides of the puck, and a pretty severe advantage in net. Blues took control from the get-go and were able to take this one in front of the white-out crowd in the Peg.
<em> Winner: Blues in 4 (W-W-W-W)
</em>
<strong>Dallas Stars vs Edmonton Oilers
</strong>Playoff McDavid? Playoff McDavid. This was the tightest matchup in the first round. The edge that Dallas possesses in net was large enough in magnitude to evenly counter a potent Edmonton offense led by the best in the business. GM voting basically yielded a wash – the Stars at home had about 49% odds going into the series. Edmonton took the first game and stole the home-ice advantage, but Dallas roared back and took 4 of the next 5 to capture a series win.
<em> Winner: Stars in 6 (L-W-W-L-W-W)
</em>
<strong>Vegas Golden Knights vs Minnesota Wild
</strong>The Vegas Knights, looking to build upon their best season in franchise history, were going to have to do it against an up-and-coming Minnesota team that embraced the spoiler role. The GMs voted with a significant favoritism toward the Golden Knights in this one, and they made quick work of the Wild.
<em> Winner: Golden Knights in 4 (W-W-W-W)
</em>
<strong>Vancouver Canucks vs Nashville Predators
</strong>The GM vote gave the Canucks a significant advantage in this #2 v #7 matchup. The offensive firepower for both teams made for an exciting series, but the Canucks looked like a team built for the playoffs. A blowout win in game 1 set the tone for the rest of the series, and the Canucks, led by their scary depth down the middle of the ice, never looked back.
<em> Winner: Canucks in 4 (W-W-W-W)
</em>

V3 PLAYOFFS: 1ST ROUND

EAST:
(1) CBJ vs (8) WSH
(4) BOS vs (5) NYI
(3) TOR vs (6) CAR
(2) PHI vs (7) PIT

WEST:
(1) STL vs (8) WPG
(4) DAL vs (5) EDM
(3) VGK vs (6) MIN
(2) VAN vs (7) NSH

Bracket-style tourney without matchup re-shuffling for the next round (home ice awarded to higher seed)

GM Voting will begin on Wednesday, April 10th and will be open for 7 days.

I hope to issue a primer before voting to go over the rules and methods.

I made a 'Matchup Primer' tab in the scoresheet. You can make a copy of the entire workbook and plug in 3-letter abbreviations in cells H1 and J1 to see how teams match up. There is also a 'scratch pad' at the bottom to draft up your vote - official voting will be done with Google Forms.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>flamesfan419</b></div><div>Probably not, but could we move up our in game draft lottery?
NHL is holding theirs next Tues before the playoffs start.
For us it has no effect at all on the playoff teams as their positions will be determined by how they fare in the playoffs.
So it's only those 15 teams who didn't make it, and knowing your draft spot further ahead of the expansion draft allows more time to formulate a plan.
Plus with RFA extensions happening prior to the lottery that also could have an affect on what teams do.
Let's say your pick ends up landing higher than expected, that could be enough to change your mind on signing an RFA or using him as trade bait.

As always, just thinking out loud and not complaining about the process.
It's likely no one else in game agrees with this idea anyway but sharing is caring.
That and I can be impatient and don't wanna wait another 37 days to find out where my picks land. Not 10 days prior to expansion draft starting.</div></div>

We could move it up - I spaced things out on the schedule in an effort to keep interest in the game during the offseason when it can get a little boring, but after the standings are finalized, we can do the lotto anytime. Maybe we could do it Wednesday the 10th?

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TMLSage</b></div><div>I just want to be able to visually watch the lottery process happen.
Because it would be fairly easy to one BOG member who is running it to just click the run simulation button a few times till they get a favourable result.</div></div>

I think you're just going to have to trust me that I'm an unbiased operator. Or if you're legitimately concerned, I will announce the time that I'm doing the lotto and you can hop onto the scoring sheet to watch how it works (I plan on typing out the process as I go so anyone can follow along... if that's not enough, I could DM you my address and you could come down to STL - I'll slice up some bagels for ya!

SCHEDULE CHANGE:

We will finalize the regular season standings and announce playoff matchups this Monday, April 8th.

We will perform and publish the lottery on the same day, April 8th. This should happen around 3pm EST if all goes well.

The rest of April will be used for RFA extensions and playoff voting. First round playoff voting will start on Wednesday, April 10th. Each round of voting will last a week.

GMs:

if anyone would like to help with a <strong>dry run of playoff voting</strong>, please use this form to vote on our dummy series between #30 NJD and #31 NYR.

<a href="https://forms.gle/SkCxvGBeSGfRDMJF7" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">https://forms.gle/SkCxvGBeSGfRDMJF7</a>

We plan to use the following general guidelines for voting.
- disregard the 0-10, just imagine a sliding scale that you are putting your vote where you think the advantage exists
- healthy rosters are assumed
- vote on every category
- puck luck and home-ice advantage are determined in the vote-tallying spreadsheet (I will release a populated example after we get some results from this test)
- GMs of teams involved in a series or implicated by owning the 2019 pick of either team involved in the vote will not be able to vote on those series (anyone can vote on this test though)

The form should require an email (might need a google account, not sure) so that only one submittal is allowed per person. Let me know in the general discussion thread if you have any feedback or if you run into any issues.

Thanks,
AK
