Voting for the Season 37 All-Star rosters is now open. Pending any changes to the schedule, voting will remain open until Thursday, August 17, at noon EDT.
As per usual, All-Star voting is a required activity.
Congrats to Kevin Laitinen and the Ottawa Senators on their Challenge Tournament win. It marks Kevin's second Inauguration Cup Championship.
With the Challenge Tournament done and the new sim server seemingly working, we'll bypass the usual day off after the Challenge Tournament and kick off the regular season tomorrow.
The Season 37 Entry Draft has been completed. All DFHL-eligible, rated players who were selected in the draft should now be on their team rosters. If anything doesn't look right, let me know.
Season 37 draft-related events have been officially scheduled as follows:
Entry Draft - April 14, 8:00 PM
Valid Roster Deadline - April 17, 12:00 PM
Waiver Draft - April 17, 6:00 PM
Re-rates are complete and players who have been deemed DFHL-ineligible have been moved to the Property List. The full list of impacted players is available in the league forum at the following address:
The league site has officially switched over to "Season 37 mode" and re-rates have begun. I'll update further as that process continues.
Just as a reminder, we're currently looking at doing the Entry Draft on either the evening of April 14th or the afternoon of April 15th, with the Valid Roster Deadline and Waiver Draft on either April 17 or April 18. We are not locked into those dates but they seem pretty good to me thus far. Obviously we can never get the perfect date/time for everyone but this gets a lot of people.
Congrats to Peter Hewgill and the Cleveland Barons, our Season Thirty-six Memorial Trophy Champions. This marks Cleveland's second Memorial Trophy.
Also, congrats to Dan Marvin and the Hamilton Tigers on their run to the Finals, and thank you to everyone for another successful season.
With the trade deadline having passed, voting for this season's All-Star rosters is now open. Barring any schedule changes between now and then, voting should be open until noon on Saturday with the All-Star Game played that night.
All DFHL-eligible players who were selected in tonight's Entry Draft have been added to their team's roster. Additionally, any players who were deemed DFHL-ineligible when we did re-rates due to not having signed, who have since signed in the NHL, have been added to their team's roster.
As I mentioned in-channel, it was looking like I'd need to reschedule our draft dates due to conflicts and a handful of people mentioned that they had conflicts as well so I'm put together a new schedule.
