The league is now up and running on the Yahoo database. It can can be found HERE. If you havent registered please do so immediately so i can get all the rosters set up. An email has been sent to all of you containing the League ID and the password.
Your starting roster will look very close to the 19 players you drafted in the inaugural draft unless specifically noted elsewhere. From there, there will be a couple weeks where you can tweak your roster to your liking...call up, send down, do whatever. Once your roster is set, and after that "grace period" the waiver rule will come into play. you will need to note each farm transaction that is made and each player will be subjected to their respective status (ie, minor leaguer, regular, prospect).
another note: once everyone has signed up and the initial rosters are intact, all of the remaining players not on someones team or farm will automatically be FREE AGENTS and not be placed on waivers. In fairness to the league, a specific time and date will be set up in which free agents can first be signed (like the real NHL, Saturday 12 noon) First come, first serve.
Also, lets get the farm draft wrapped up as well. Last round, final stretch, lets pull it together so the forum team pages can be updated and we can be done with that as well.

So exciting.
You better make that pick or trade it! I'm excited to see if we can use up all the draft picks this year.
