MESSAGE FROM
THE COMMISSIONER
Halfway through the season and a couple more
trades in the books. The playoff races are starting to shape up, more
to come on those as we get past the trade deadline. Things are much
tighter in the Prince of Wales with everyone still in the race either
for the top of wild card while the Campell is more interesting with 6
teams already pretty comfortably in the playoffs and then the other 6
are all still in the wild card race but very far back. Games keep
coming mostly on time, which I appreciate, lets work on getting those
coaches out on time now, at worst by Thursday night, so we don’t have
teams playing with whatever is left in the files. 4 weeks til the
deadline, make sure any deals you make will allow you to field a full
lineup for the rest of the season. Good luck to all, enjoy the block 6
games!
Block 5 is in
the books, files are ready for block 6. Remember that all injuries
this year are coaches decisions BUT all players are limited to the
exact number of NHL games from last year, so plan accordingly.
If you are sending the same lineup for all 8 games then just a
regular coach should work. If you want to set specific lineups for
each game, then you need to use the Daily Lineups as it gives you a
lot more flexibility. As soon as you have your coach set for your
first 4 road games, please send that out to the list (and list who the
coach is for so it is easier for teams to keep the ones they need).
Also, I would ask you PLEASE include your 4 home strats as well
both for your sake and mine as if I have to sim your home games for
any reason I will just let the game set up your strat if none is
defined and you will have to deal with any penalties later on.
I am going to continue using
the strat file page and upload everyones coaches to the website like I
did in the past so they are easy to find when needed.
**** IMPORTANT
- Action PC Game File Update dated 01/21/2026.
You need to send out game exports as well as boxscores for all 4 home
games by the second Sunday of the block at 9 pm This is MANDATORY,
both the exports AND boxscores please.
Game summaries are nice, even if it’s just one quick comment
for all 4 games, just adds to the league and makes it easier for
everyone to see what is going on.
If I do not receive game exports after sending updates on
Saturday and Sunday, I will send one more request directly about an
hour before the deadline on Sunday.
Unless I get a request for an extension of time, I will wait
til the deadline and about 30 minutes later I will sim games so I can
get new files out before I go to bed Sunday night.
