The NHLPA finally realized realized that business, unlike government, is guided by simple math and basic economic theory, and verbally agreed to a tentative agreement. Since the season may potentially start January 15, it can only be done one day. And the most massive whiners are playing bush league hockey that night, so we adjusted the time to partially accommodate them, probably to screw over others, so blame Jesse, Bert and Pete. The draft will be held Monday, January 15th, at 6:00 pm PST. The draft order and designated keepers can be seen here. You are responsible for verifying the accuracy of your keeper selections as well as the draft order. Please let me know if you feel there is an inaccuracy. I probably don’t care, but you never know.
In the event that a keeper decides the NHL is gay (like most of the U.S.A.), and decides to stay in another league, you will have the option of choosing another keeper from your final roster in the previous season. Should that player come back to the NHL midseason, you will be allowed to retain that player on your roster, in exchange for the keeper you designated as his replacement. For example, if Kris Letang decides to stay in the KHL after he signed with a team this past Friday, Crosby’s Concussions could decide to swap out Letang with Tim Connolly. If a month from now, Letang decides he wants to come back to the NHL, Crosby’s Concussions would have right of first refusal, and if that team decides they want Letang, they would have to drop Tim Connolly to retain Letang. If Connolly was no longer on Crosby’s Concussions when Letang returns, then the team would have to select a different keeper to drop to retain Letang.
