    Re: USCHO Fantasy College Hockey: Season 11

    Would there be any interest in doing a "keeper" FCH league? You'd keep your players throughout their 4 years of eligability, and it would add quite a bit more strategery, trying to balance your team with upperclassmen that will score big this year, but drafting enough freshmen and sophomores that you're set for the future. Also, trying to draft players that are more likely to stay 3 or 4 years, and not getting stuck with a few 1 and dones.

      There would be alot to work out with a keeper league but it could be very fun. Need to have 8 quality managers though.

        I have a question. Are there matchups or games played against other users, or is this a pure total points league?

          it is a points thing throughout the regular season which is basically just for seeding and then playoffs has been head to head.

            I'd be interested.
            Here's a wrinkle... How about a freshmen draft each year to replace graduates only. If you lose a guy to early departure, you're stuck with his roster spot until his class graduates.

              For the keeper league, I think it is something that we can try to do for next year, I don't think I could get it all sorted out for this season. We can work out the details throughout the season and we won't be rushed.

              So far these posters have signed up:

              Given the available dates that I have seen, and hoping that we get more to sign up, I'm hoping to have 3 leagues, one drafting on Sept. 27th, another on Oct. 1st and the last on Oct. 4th. I am still working out how to fit people in those leagues, and since we only have 12 owners now, we'd have to get 6 more to make 3 leagues viable, preferable 9-12 more.

                  Gotcha. I like that style.

                  I would be in, but I have school Mon-Thurs nights, which unfortunately was every draft day listed. If we could have a draft on a Friday or Saturday, I would be in.

                    There has been some interest in having a draft day on Friday, October 5th, which cuts it close with the start of the season, but we should be able to get it to work. You may as well fill out the sign up form, and select "other" for draft days and write in the days that work. I will do what I can to make it work for you.

                        If anyone else is OK with drafting on Friday, October 5th, please post it here. It wasn't an original option on the form, but there have been a few requests for it, and I would like to involve as many people as possible. I started putting owners into leagues, based on draft days, and it looks like I'll be able to do it on three days, and that would only make it so one person can't make the draft. As of now, I'm hoping that the draft days will be Thursday, Sept. 27th, Thursday Oct. 4th and Friday Oct. 5th, so for those who are yet to sign up, if possible, select at least one of those days.

                            This would be SPECTACULAR. What a creative idea. If you decide to do it, let me know.

                              I can draft on the 5th.
