Hello everyone!
NHL hockey starts again in about 17 hours, and that means we do too! With that being the case I just want to send some last-minute info out as we all look to finalize our Opening Rosters.
1) Opening Rosters are due Tues Oct 12th at 7:29pmET/4:29pmPT. That's a minute before puck-drop on the Pens/Lightning game. You are welcome to officially submit a roster on the boards in your team's section (as many of you already have), or send one to me in a direct message, or at the very least have your roster set on FanTrax. Even if you do either of the first 2 options, please also set your FanTrax roster to match. Whatever it is at that time will be considered binding. Any transactions done past that deadline will count against your weekly transaction limit.
2) Speaking of which, because the opening week is a merged double-week, all teams will be allowed to make a maximum of 4 total transactions throughout the first match-up, as they see fit. Normally it is 3, but I think it is fair to have the extra transaction with the extra games happening.
3) Remember that IR Replacements cannot be made FOR your Opening Roster. You can choose to have IR eligible players simply start on your MINOR roster, or if you really want to place a player on IR, they may start on your MAJOR roster, and you can use your first transaction(s) of the week to place them on IR and select a replacement.
4) Remember that Goalies no longer cost a transaction as part of a Promotion/Demotion. They will still cost a transaction to be placed on IR (like any other player), but which goalies you have on your MAJOR and which you have on your MINOR are totally up to you. Because of this, on the spreadsheet I will be setting every teams goaltending according to a default. It will NOT be reflective of who is actually on your FanTrax roster. It is up to managers individually to handle their goaltending from here on out. Accordingly, corresponding posts don't need to be made on the boards to track this stuff anymore either (again, outside of IR situations).
I think that is all.
Good luck, and good hockey, everyone!
