Just a reminder to all that we will once again by using the combination of a list draft via the waiver order to prioritize any post 3rd round prospect claims following our formal Entry Draft.
The concept is very simple, every team wishing to participate (participation is not mandatory) must send a moderator (myself for this season) a list of all the remaining undrafted prospects they wish claim, prioritized starting from 1 to however many. Once the deadline has passed I will compare all the lists against one another and, according to the waiver order (order of finish from last season, 31st overall to 1st overall) start assigning prospects to teams, one at a time. Once all participating teams have had the opportunity to select once, I shall restart the process for a second round, and repeat until there are no prospects left on any list.
Here's a small scale model of how it would work:
Team A list: 1. Gretzky, 2. Lemieux, 3. Fuhr, 4. Hull, 5. Lecavalier, 6. Richard, 7. Murphy
Team B list: 1. Gretzky, 2. Hull, 3. Bossy, 4. Fuhr, 5. Coffey, 6. Lemieux
Team C list: 1. Hull, 2. Gretzky, 3. Lemieux
Team D list: 1. Gretzky, 2. Hull
Round 1
Team A picks Gretzky with the first pick.
With Gretzky off the board, Team B gets Hull.
With Hull and Gretzky off the board, Team C gets Lemieux.
With Gretzky and Hull off the board, Team D’s list is empty, they are skipped for the remainder of the draft
Round 2
In the next round, Team A gets their highest ranked remaining player, Fuhr.
Team B gets Bossy
Team C’s list is empty, they are skipped for the remainder of the draft.
Round 3
Team A gets Lecavalier, Team B gets Coffey.
Round 4
Team A gets Richard, Team B’s list is empty, they are skipped for the remainder of the draft.
Round 5
Team A gets Murphy, and the draft ends as there are no longer any prospects left.
This is essentially a way for us to extend the draft by however many rounds are needed to ensure that all desired prospects are selected, only done instantaneously via list rather then waiting X number of hours for each other to pick.
Here are a couple of additional rules:
No team will be permitted to go above the 20 prospect limit at any point in this process. You will need to create space on your list by either dropping or creating players prior to deadline to submit your list. However, we will be offering you the possibility of submitting a prioritized drop list along with your claim list. In this case, those players will only be dropped if your claim(s) is successful. For every successful claim, a drop will be announced according to your prioritized drop list.
All players dropped ahead of or immediately following the post draft waiver solution will be subject to regular prospect claim rules, first come first serve, but any claim putting a team above the 20 prospect limit must be accompanied by an immediate drop or creation to make space or the claim will not be considered successful.
GMs are responsible for ensuring that the prospects on their claim lists are available to be claimed. In the event that a team's attempt to claim a prospect is nullified due to that player having been previously drafted or claimed by another team, that selection is forfeited (we will not reassign a different name as that could have ramifications on every prospect claimed later in the order).
Your lists should be submitted to me following a format similar to this:
Team Name
# of Prospects on prospect list
Claim List:
Player 1
Player 2
Player 3
Player 4
Player 5
Drop List:
Player 1
Player 2
Player 3
Player 4
Player 5
The deadline for submitting your list will confirmed at a later date, but will likely be one or two days after the final pick of the 3rd round is announced.
If you have any questions, please post them in this board and I will do my best to answer them.
