    Let me start off by saying that i dont care that the season is delayed so id like to think i am unbiased. With that said, what do you owners need 2 weeks for? Are you just hoping the lag gets fixed? What do you need to get ready or prepare for? I just dont understand the thought process and what it is going to change.

    Smells like "this team we have won't be fun maybe we should have rethought this". /takes the first chance to hit the door

    I'm not certain either. I'd much prefer to just wait until this is actually fixed. Obviously, that wouldn't be great for the league, but I don't know how anyone can expect @mashle93 to handle uploading that many pictures for stats.

    the delay is one thing but this is just stupid. We're going to have two or three players on each team with 0 availability for the end of the season. Can't we just cut the preseason from the other seasons it's pretty apparent not many nhl guys want it anyways

    A couple things I'd like to say and try not to stir the pot.

    1. If you are going to refer to the player/league poll it needs to not be hidden/deleted. I think people are rounding down the numbers and 60% of "x" number of votes could help explain things better. 60% of 2000 is not the same as 60% of 100.

    2. (Because there is no PA) People signed up for and agreed to terms, the calendar was posted and there was a couple weeks prior to bidding to retire if it didn't fit their schedule. The league changed what was agreed on by management and players, therefore, have the right to "retire" without penalty and also should have the right to resign up at a later date if they choose, not a season ban OR have the unlimited IR as you extended to people when nothing changed.

    You gave these people special rights/exceptions when nothing changed in the agreement, others should be granted the same luxuries.


    To the community;

    In all seriousness, Management was not aware of lobby lag until we started preseason. Everyone was going on what Brodie said and at that time no "home cpt" lag was noticed. So in reality, they have every right to be in panic mode. It was a "new" complication.

    ....I'm going to leave it at because everything else I tried to write throws people under the bus and exposes some of the BS is being tossed around by all levels.

    I think they should shorten the season for how many weeks they ate going to wait instead of push the season into the holidays. It doesn't effect me either way but I can understand management wanting to push a week or two but you can't expect players to show up for holiday games fearing punishment.

    So no break, but a lot of people go on vacation for the two weeks off they get from school so that also puts the league in a spot where I put in two weeks IR for the holiday and I go on a cruise on the week of thanksgiving so does that mean I will get banned for missing three weeks this season most likely?

    there should be no internet hockey games from [Dec 23rd - Jan 2nd], regardless if YOU personally are available, its unreasonable to expect everyone to be around for internet hockey during the holidays.

    There was going to be games over the holidays regardless of the delay. The delay did not cause games to be played over those 2 weeks. It actually made it more manageable as instead of running the playoffs during those weeks it's regular season which is a lot better.

    Only comment I have is there is no difference in quitting and retiring.

    The league tools don't have any way to track who was on what contract when they retired so we tell they were on originally.

    Now everyone suddenly wants the Xmas holidays off too? If you can't play the season because it was changed by two weeks the you couldn't have played it all.

    If you want to quit so be it, that is basically the exact same thing as retiring.

    Not sure where the home lag comments came from. Perhaps some people are assuming we should have expected the lag issues? It couldn't have been known until we actually played pre season like you so it is extremely unreasonable for some to think this was avoidable and we should have known. Ideally it wouldn't have been an issue EA out on us in the first place.

    The who year calendar isn't completed yet anyways. Once I get the constitution posted tonight I can look at revamping the schedule to further accommodate everyone.

    And run a seven week season? Is that what you are suggesting?

    You don't remember doing this in the VHL? We never took a break except when the holidays were in the middle of the week.

    I see no reason not to play right up until the 23. Then we can take from the Dec 23-Jan 1. But everyone had no issues when that was listed as playoff games before the delay.

    If a team's management takes it upon themselves to quit in protest, kick them out. Same for a team quitting. Even if they're right. That's not an acceptable way for things to function.
    But please make sure they have meaningful ways to protest. If you're getting half the league's management threatening to quit, you already messed up.

    I agree to some extent but the larger picture just doesn't allow me to be that strict.

    This is a good topic of discussion because honest I don't know how to handle it.

    Let's say PIT quits. Then whole team. The questions that need to be answered right awy are :

    -Do we call up their entire AHL team?
    -Who fills the AHL roster?
    -What happens if the AHL players can't play NHL game times?
    -How does this affect the CHL with 17 full time call ups?
    -What happens to the games that aren't played during the intern while the team is vacant?

    Tons of questions that don't have easy anwers
