Well here were are…The Playoffs!
First off, thank you for another great year. Although there were kinks along the way, we feel it has allowed the league to grow as a whole. A good review of the year will be a useful exercise at the end of the playoffs.
To those who have not qualified for the playoffs, stay tuned for the lottery draft and better luck next season.
As in previous years, Yahoo! does not support playoffs. In the coming days, I will be setting up our account on Office Pools (http://www.officepools.com/pool). It worked out well last season.
In order to facilitate this process, we ask that you submit your first round line-ups using the UHP email by no later than 7pm on Tuesday, April 10, 2012.
Your lineup will be used throughout the round. You will not be able to do any roster modifications (including injury replacement) until the round is over.
The bench feature is ignored in the playoffs, therefore, your submitted roster can dress a total of 20 players and 2 goalies.
You may not call up assigned Prospects for the playoffs.
Points from all these players will be calculated. Of course the salary cap is still in effect here. All submitted rosters must be cap-compliant.
