MESSAGE FROM THE COMMISSIONER 

Six blocks in the books and with the trade deadline just 2 weeks away, there are a lot of teams still in the playoff hunt so it is time for many to decide if they are contenders or pretenders.  Should be an interesting block with some trades happening and many more likely not to get done as teams hedge their bets and maybe wait too long to pull the trigger.  The teams who really appear to be out of the playoff hunt are Arizona, Chicago, Buffalo in the East while out West even Pittsburgh is within 6 points of the final playoff spot so who knows what may happen.  All trades must be confirmed by 9 pm eastern on Sunday, make sure you CC me on all trades you make on Sunday to be sure I see them in case the list has any issues.  Any questions, let me know, otherwise let the wheeling and dealing begin (or not :O)

Just Colorado left to fill now, so if anyone knows of an owner who may be interested let me know, otherwise I will continue to use the sheet that the Donn gave me to put out a lineup for them each block.

For this season, Injuries will be done as coaches decisions (we may go back to the old way next year if everyone picks up the game quickly, but will address that later).  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.     

Block 7 is ready and the updated league file and Excel file is on the website.  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.  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 start 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 01/09/2019. 

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.
