NHL Franchise Boys

     Once again this year, I have subscribed us to the HockeyDraft website. In addition to the daily Excel file updates on this website, we are also using the services of  HockeyDraft.ca to track our standings and stats. Please select the link and login. Our userid is “franchiseboys” and password is our usual password.  Enjoy!

Note: Please use this site to see how your players are doing during the opening week of the season. The Excel spreadsheets will only be ready once every team has played at least one game.

Good luck to everyone!

Draft Order

• The weighted-average lottery to determine who will have the 1^st overall pick will be held at the end of the regular season, during a playoff game GM meeting.

Franchise Owner Replacement

• In the unlikely event that a franchise owner should decide to leave the pool, the first plan of action is to hold a GM meeting to determine the fate of the franchise and its players.
