2010-11 Rosters

EDIT: See the rosters tab.

Also, I have Mykl and Evan's emails but that's about it... if you could post it here, I'll send you a link to get publishing rights so you can post stuff.

Additionally, I'm hoping to get the season started next week if that's cool with everyone? It'll be 50 games on 50 days, but I won't be simming anywhere near every day.

2010 CHLA Entry Draft

League Rules

So, there's a lot of stuff we can customize with the league, and I wanna hear what you guys have to say about them.

Icing

-No Touch Icing (Juniors, Europe, Olympics, etc)

-Regular (NHL, fight to the line)

Penalties

-Sliders range from 1-4 (3 is default)

Fighting

-Sliders range from 0-2 (1 would be normal)

Playoff Series Length (8 teams make it)

-Best of 5 per Series

-Best of 7 per Series

Playoff Tiebreak

-Continuous OT (default)

-5 min 4-on-4 then shootout

Overtime Loss

-1 Point

-0 Points

Playoff Seeding

-By Top Records

-By Division Champs, then the Wildcards

Home Jersey Color

-Dark (Recent NHL)

-White (Traditional)

NOTE: Doing either of the American scoring systems would force us into doing our own playoffs independent of the game's, where you could conceptually have divisions. The season structure of 50 games gives you 6 games against 3 teams while you play the other 8 only 4 times, creating 3 natural divisions. I think we'll do that.

ALSO: Unless we get some (more) votes, I'll go with what's italicized.

Draft Date and Time

The Inaugural CHLA Entry Draft will be held on Tuesday, October 5th at 9:15 PM EDT/6:15 PDT. The order and draft pool are in the post below this one, and any team not there can request another owner to autopick for them, or I will. When you download the file, please select the players in red text first, as these are starters, while the last 3 rounds will be the blue players, reserves. The draft will be conducted via a chatroom supplied by CoveritLive and will be on a post on the blog. Hopefully you can make it!

Also, as a request, will the owners that have not chosen team names choose their team names and colors in the near future? Logos aren't a necessity, but I'd like to have all of them by the end of the week.

PS: Will anyone that isn't friends with me on Facebook add me? It's nice to have easy access to message everyone on there about spur of the moment issues.

Draft Date?

So, I'd like to get the draft done sometime this week, so we can start simming the games in a week or two. So, what nights work for everybody?

Final Five Owners!

I would like to announce droozer, JimmyN64, and MDC as the 8th, 9th, and 10th owners in the CHLA!

I've convinced bigmike to become the 11th owner after all! The Ironmen will return. And owner #12 is my good friend, and former hockey player Evan! Evan had a short stint on the CCSLC as the user "njdevils," creating Colorado Rockies and KC Scouts concepts.

CHLA 3.0?

Alright, so I've decided to completely reform some of the ideas behind the CHLA. The "new CHLA" will consist of 12 teams, using 67% players from the Free Agent pool in NHL 11 and 33% players from the Polish, British, Italian, French and Japanese national teams. Each team will consist of 23 players (13 forwards, 7 defensemen, 3 goalies) and will play a schedule around 55-60 games. The league will use the National League from Austria's template, the reason for the 12-team league. Sims will be conducted as close to daily as possible, running from early October (hopefully, or else we'll retroactively sim) up to the middle of February. Then an 8-team playoff will begin, each with a best-of-seven series. I'll post a list of markets I'll include in the possibilities in the next post. Hopefully you'll be in the CHLA this season!
