I know for a fact that Filip Forsberg broke eligibility rules and is on suspended waivers as of now. The other players on suspended waivers are no longer highlighted either, I think it would be a great help to the league to showcase all suspended waiver players. I also feel like we should hold the Prospect Draft sometime after the Entry Draft. This way any leftover 2014 draftees can be taken, giving a little more importance to the Prospect Draft. I'm pretty sure we did this last year because I ended up taking Artturi Lehkonen with one of my picks. What do you guys think? If the Prospect Draft were to be held after the Entry Draft it would kind of defeat the purpose of the Prospect Draft altogether. Might as well just have a six round Entry Draft. And as far as the highlighted names go, the only teams it benefits are those with high draft picks. I have interviewed a couple candidates but none have quite been what I am looking for. I will keep searching. As always, if you guys have any GM recommendations don't hesitate to send me the contact information. Watch your language you inconsiderate bastard. |

Yes but you didn't even warn that you'd be taking that information down. Information I'm sure, you yourself, saved. I thought you'd start a new thread altogether and the older 2013 thread would still be available to peruse.

Let me know if I'm wrong but was filip forsberg not awarded back to Colorado because the violation happened in a time when no gm was in control of the team. And then traded and no other violation occurred? So he is not on suspended waivers.

Nos we all had a league vote last year to allow Filip Forsberg back onto my roster and then he was traded at the deadline.

Oh yeah right, my bad on that. I'd still like to see a Suspended Waivers player list.

That should be part of your own available players list. Players on suspended waivers can't be picked up until waiver draft.

I tend to use a lot of the information gathered on this board because it's accurate to this league. Sure I have my own available players list (400+ players deep) but I was under the impression that this information would always be available, suspended waivers, players who slipped off the list, if I had known it was going to be pulled I would have taken notes. Now I'll have to annoyingly comb through each farm and make new notes, and why? Because information was pulled from the league for some reason, an attempt to 'hide' information and gain an advantage. I'll do the work, it's not me you have to worry about, I'm the last person this is going to hurt.
Players on suspended waivers can be picked up in the Entry Draft as well, as long as they meet Prospect requirements.

Players on suspended waivers can be picked up in the Entry Draft as well, as long as they meet Prospect requirements. There are only one or two players on suspended waivers (from Detroit) who meet this criteria, and they are largely irrelevant whereas they wouldn't be drafted anyway. |

There's a pretty significant prospect sitting on suspended waivers. |

I am sorry to confuse things more but this can't be right. These drafts should be straight forward and simple this is how I understand things.
Prospect Draft
10GP or less and already drafted.
Entry Draft
Is exactly that Entry level no NHL GP
Waiver Draft
Is all other available players.

Why do we need Prospect Draft then??
It seems a little silly that you can draft players in the entry draft that have already been drafted in the entry draft.
We should just look at going to a 6 round entry draft if this is going to continue to apply.
Suspended waiver players in my opinion should not be available until waiver draft. Choosing players in the entry draft that have been drafted in previous entry drafts does not make sense.

We have the Prospect Draft just for prospects who have played 10 games or fewer, these are the players that are leftover from previous drafts, players who might have gained notoriety recently and thus are worthy to be drafted. It's designed as a fair dispersal draft, rather than giving a date to sign all prospects at a certain time like we did in the past, we ran into a lot of problems with that method.
This is the first off-season we've used Suspended Waivers, I personally love the addition of Suspended Waivers, I feel like it's an inspired step forward. It makes every manager more responsible and accountable for their team, if you break eligibility rules you lose players, these players are then put into another fair dispersal draft depending on their status. These players just happen to be prospects that have played in over 10 games who can be drafted in the Entry Draft because they meet eligibility requirements.
To sum up, the rule makes every manager more responsible and accountable for their team, in addition to improving the drafting talent pool, the lost players are put into a fair dispersal draft dependent on status. I don't see the issue you see.

The issue I have with it is that an entry draft should be just that an entry draft for players that have 0 games played in the NHL considering it's an entry draft. A player who has played even 1 NHL game shouldn't be able to be taken in such draft, all suspended waiver players should only be taken in the waiver draft especially since they are texhnically on waivers. I loved that you get punished for mis managing but having these players or any prospect being able to be taken in these draft makes no sense to me.

It makes perfect sense to me because the rule is right there, plain to see, prospects can be drafted. This is how it has always been, the only variance being the addition of Suspended Waivers, adding to the talent pool. The Entry Draft is there to draft prospects, I think you guys are a little too hung up on the name, yes it's called the Entry Draft but was previously called the Prospect Draft. It was changed to accommodate the new draft we added to fairly disperse prospects after keepers were submitted because managers were just signing a bunch of players at the same time (midnight) when the signing period opened. The Entry Draft is mainly for entry level players, that's its primary objective, hence its distinction, however it's a draft designed to draft any eligible prospects that are not owned by an NAFHL club.

I still think it makes more sense for prospect draft to b 10 or less games, entry draft 0 games played and waiver draft covers everyone else. Sorry to be stubborn on this but that just seems way easier

01. It makes perfect sense, your way doesn't make more sense, it's just a different way. If it did make [more] sense it could be supported with irrefutable proof.
02. The easiest way is rarely the best way.

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