Wanted to put something up for discussion; and it could potentially be a game changer. The goal of admin here in the DHL is to keep the league fun, give very one equal opportunity, and most importantly deliver the best league in fantasy hockey;
We have some amazing GMs, we have some original cast members who have been here going on 12 years, and we have some newer GMs who have done a tremendous job rebuilding some teams under less then ideal circumstances at times.
Although the DHL is mirrored after many of the NHL standards, in hope of delivering a product that allows everyone to feel like a real GM! This can also at times cause a realism that can be hard to over come, rebuilding for example can take some time, which is great and realistic but also a tough job in cases where teams have been taken over with very little.
It appears this year we will have some very strong teams looking for new ownership, something a lot of our replacement GMs have not got in the past, due to this admin wanted to discuss the following option;
For the first time ever (and hopefully the only time assuming we don’t lose any of our GMs in the future). We wanted to discuss the possibility of allowing some teams to join in the dispersal draft.
Essentially this option would be open to all teams but not mandatory. If any GMs feel this could be of benefit our thoughts are that if we are replacing 2-3 really strong teams and 2-3 rebuilding teams also want a boost we would allow them to join a dispersal draft potentially consisting of 4-6 GMs. We have replacement GMs lined up, we feel this would really add to the parity of the league, pull the entire league back into a competative position and really add to the activity of the league, not to mention the excitement!
Again this wouldn’t be mandatory for anyone, there is a pride with rebuilding a team into a contender, but there should also be a level playing ground and someone starting new with a 16th place team and no assets is a huge difference from someone starting with a championship contender…
So that’s the thought, please discuss, if you want your thoughts private please message admin, again the idea if we do this is that it is open to anyone who would want to participate but no one would ever be forced to do this.
Please discuss below!!!
