MESSAGE FROM
THE COMMISSIONER
Round 1 is
completed with one upset as Buffalo manages to win all 3 road games at
Anaheim to set up a matchup with Philadelphia who handled Washington
in round 1 in the Horton. In the Howe, Detroit has a tough time with
the NY Rangers but win their series and NY Islanders take down New
Jersey to set up their second round matchup.
In the Orr Division Dallas has no problem with Pittsburgh in 5
games and Boston keeps the games close but also falls in 5 games to
Montreal for their round 2 matchup.
Florida wins a bunch of close games and Colorado actually wins
one in their series and Vancouver takes Edmonton to 7 games including
a 1-0 shutout to force the seventh game, but the Oilers win easily in
game 7 to set up an epic battle in round 2 with the Panthers.
With the
season nearing the end, it is time for those who are out of the
playoffs to start thinking about the offseason.
First of all, if anyone does not plan to return, please let me
know as soon as you can so we can fill our openings before the
offseason begins if possible. Second we will be talking about ballot
proposals soon, look for an email regarding those later today. Finally
we will have the season awards voting coming soon as well. I will put
that ballot together and those are want to help out are welcome to
vote. Any offseason questions, now is the time to ask. Until they
finish the NHL season, we will likely be on hold as to when next
season can begin and how Action PC will handle it if they don’t
complete the regular season.
Here are the
round 2 matchups:
Prince of
Wales
Philadelphia vs Buffalo
Detroit vs NY
Islanders
Campbell
Conference
Dallas vs Montreal
Florida vs
Edmonton
There are some
penalties for overuse which will apply to a playoff team, please make
sure you take these into account when playing your home games:
NY Islanders –
Krug, Hamhuis miss entire series
Vlasic miss game 1 and 2 of each series
Here is a quick
updated on playoff usage rules for those who may need them:
PLAYOFF USAGE LIMITS FOR
SKATERS:
1) 60 or more NHL
games can play all playoff games (per series)
2) 55-59 NHL games 6 playoff games
3) 50-54 NHL games
5 playoff games
4) 40-49 NHL games 4 playoff games
5) 30-39 NHL games
3 playoff games
6) 20-29 NHL games 2 playoff games
7) 10-19 NHL games
1 playoff game
PLAYOFF USAGE LIMITS FOR
GOALTENDERS
Goalies
with 1-14 games may only dress as backups
Goalies with 15-19 games may only start 1 game per series (but may
dress as backups in all other games)
Goalies with 20-24 games may only start 2 games per series (but may
dress as backups in all other games)
Goalies with 25-29 games may only start 3 games per series (but may
dress as backups in all other games)
Goalies with 30+ games may start all playoff games in a series (or may
be dressed as a backup)
Injury backups may only play if the
computer pulls the starter due to an injury OR the team is down by 4
or more goals at any time in the game (a mercy rule basically). The
second part may be accomplished by a computer setting for road games
that is defined as a team being down by 4 or more goals OR by a home
coach making this decision when his team is down by 4 or more goals.
Once a goalie has made his maximum allowable starts he must follow
all rules for Injury backups as stated above.
Please guys,
you have to make sure you import coaches before you are playing games.
Many of you are not and those are showing up as guys are being over or
underplayed. I don’t want to have to impose penalties but it isn’t
fair to your opponents if you aren’t doing this one thing before
playing your games. Also at a minimum you need to be adding boxscores
to your game reports. I
don’t need .flm files or game exports, just the box that you save at
the end of the game please.
There is a new
playoff file for round 2 which you will need to download and then
unzip into a new folder called RHL1920-Playoffs and then switch to
that season in the game and you should be all set.
If you are sending the same lineup for all 7 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 road
games, please send that out to the.
**** IMPORTANT
- Action PC Game File Update dated 03/06/2020.
You need to
send out game exports as well as boxscores for all home games
as
soon as the games are played. This is MANDATORY, both the exports
AND boxscores please.
Game summaries are nice, even if it’s just one quick
comment for all games, just adds to the league and makes it easier for
everyone to see what is going on.
