Season's End Award Show (SEAS)

chicpea · Post #1 by **chicpea** » Fri Mar 24, 2017 3:16 pm

Hello, gentleman!

I meant to do this last year - and maybe I did and forgot in a drugged-out haze - but was much too slovenly in my preparatory and lobbying efforts.

In short, I would both appreciate and reward with gropes your assistance in compiling a list of categories for a Season's End Award Show (SEAS).

In addition to the Categories (let's say five [?]), I also require help in making some sort of methodology in tabulating and acquiring anonymous votes.

Some categories could include:

Best Trade of the Season
Best Trade From Last Year Bearing Luxurious Fruits In This One's
Best WW Pickup
Best Legal Tank
Best Cap Management
Most SH Goals
Most Points From Goalers
Best D For The Dollar

All of these are just ideas. Please add more.

In addition, an All-Time Leaderboard Point Scoring System is something to consider. For example, 1st place = 10 pts; 2nd = 6; 3rd = 2

:bouillon:

Thank you.

Don't blame me, I voted for La La Land

Lifer · Post #3 by **Lifer** » Fri Mar 24, 2017 11:06 pm

Worsts for all of the same listed above.

chicpea · Post #4 by **chicpea** » Sat Mar 25, 2017 12:13 am

Lifer also posted on mantrax that his baseball league (???????????????????????????) has an award for "player on the most rosters during a single season." In addition, if a GM drafts that player, they must take a shot during the draft, which I assume would only work during live drafts.

Anyway, I like that Award as well.

Keep them coming. We can finalize a list shortly and then voting can begin at a more laggardly pace.

I suggest an award for "GM with worst award ideas". Winner would be chicpea.

chicpea · Post #6 by **chicpea** » Sat Mar 25, 2017 12:50 am

Or an award for "GM Who Most Betrays His Country By Moving To Arkansas To Grope Students While Showing Them Ron Howard Films."

Rob Reiner films.

Most points from players drafted this year
Mr. Let's Make A Deal (most trades)

Dr_Chimera · Post #11 by **Dr_Chimera** » Sat Mar 25, 2017 8:27 pm

How about GM with the nicest hairline? Mine is terrific.

Dr_Chimera · Post #12 by **Dr_Chimera** » Sat Mar 25, 2017 8:41 pm

Another suggestion. The "GM who has Sam Steel" award.

And also "GM with the most puzzling scrub on his roster". I think I would also win this.

PredsFan77 · Post #13 by **PredsFan77** » Sun Mar 26, 2017 1:16 am

Are you upset about Sam Steele leaving game day as I am chimmy

mayoradamwest · Post #14 by **mayoradamwest** » Sun Mar 26, 2017 11:16 am

I have a hard time judging your trades as I don't know what most of you did with the space. mp and chiclet deserve the kudos'

mayoradamwest · Post #15 by **mayoradamwest** » Sun Mar 26, 2017 11:23 am

Best trade:
Mp getting Richard Panik for a third.

Best waiver wire pickup:
Jonathan Toews, Nick Schmaltz, jimmy Howard, Gustav nyquist, Ryan Dzingle, radek faksa,

Best d for dollar will always be Erik Karlsson, especially for his off ice contributions.

Dr Chic deserves the award for player who has Sam Steele.

Rookie of the year - best new gm?

Best obscure prospect award

Kraapo 4 Kaapo · Post #16 by **Kraapo 4 Kaapo** » Sun Mar 26, 2017 11:53 am

Brad Marchand for Aaron Ekblad

Best waiver wire is clearly Viktor Arvidsson

Dr_Chimera · Post #17 by **Dr_Chimera** » Sun Mar 26, 2017 12:33 pm

Chicpea, did you drop Arvidsson?

Craig · Post #18 by **Craig** » Sun Mar 26, 2017 1:05 pm

I got Mike Condon and his 101 fantasy points (2.59/game) on a sub-1 million salary off waivers.

Craig · Post #19 by **Craig** » Sun Mar 26, 2017 1:09 pm

Or did I draft him? I don't remember.

I think Budaj was on waivers too, which is kinda amazing because he produced the 9th most fantasy points overall this year.

Negativo.

Dunno if any one drafted him in years prior, but i picked him up before the season started with Radim Vrbata. Grabner was a good pick up too.

chicpea · Post #22 by **chicpea** » Sun Mar 26, 2017 8:07 pm

Yeah your team is excellent! Anyway, if that does it for categories, I think I will compile a final list.

Dr_Chimera · Post #23 by **Dr_Chimera** » Mon Mar 27, 2017 8:00 pm

I want to know which GM has the hottest ass. Please investigate.

PredsFan77 · Post #24 by **PredsFan77** » Mon Mar 27, 2017 10:06 pm

Can we get Cuba to host this?

mayoradamwest · Post #25 by **mayoradamwest** » Sun Apr 09, 2017 9:36 pm

Congrats chic. Good team this year, though respectfully inferior to last year's champion.

Thanks, Mawm. Had a fair amount of luck on my side.

When is the awards show need to set my dvr

Dr_Chimera · Post #28 by **Dr_Chimera** » Fri Apr 14, 2017 7:51 pm

I think chicpea's team is pretty good, but it is far inferior when compared to my team two years from now.

PredsFan77 · Post #29 by **PredsFan77** » Mon Apr 24, 2017 5:33 pm

I need either a nice trade or for somebody to suck me off real good.

MP · Post #34 by MP » Thu May 04, 2017 8:49 am

Sorry Chimay, I'm still trying to sort out the standings after 6 GM's failed to make the minimums. Fantrax doesn't seem to have a way to override missed minimums. So I have to figure it out from Day 1 manually....

Harsher penalties for not making the minimums will be in place next year, because this is BS work. I'll try and finish it off this weekend a start the next season.

I can confirm that the bottom 3 were: 1) Naslundians, 2) Putins, 3) Indrew, based on the ratio.

After that, it's confusing. Maybe someone took a screengrab?

Dr_Chimera · Post #36 by **Dr_Chimera** » Thu May 04, 2017 12:45 pm

I haven't figured out how to do this, but if you can give me some pointers I can try and do a couple of teams. This looks torturous though.

PredsFan77 · Post #37 by **PredsFan77** » Thu May 04, 2017 6:07 pm

fire all these bums.

Craig · Post #38 by **Craig** » Thu May 04, 2017 6:09 pm

We should just relax the minimums. With the ppg metric in place for the draft it hardly matters anymore.

I think the mins still matter because underplaying goalies is a good way to tank. To a lesser extent, same with overplaying defensemen and underplaying forwards. As a tanker myself, I know all the tricks and it would be a shameless affair if we relaxed mins too much.

PredsFan77 · Post #40 by **PredsFan77** » Thu May 04, 2017 8:17 pm

plus it makes it easy to fire people that just suck ass

I'd help you now if I could, empee. But I'm working two tough jobs for the next three weeks. If people can wait (they can't), I will help you then.

Thank you for your effort in placating such animals.

its challenging - because injuries can be a major factor in some cases for not meeting mins. You're not going to blow up your team to ice some scrubs not make an arbitrary metric.

I think we still need them but lowering them makes sense to me also..

Craig · Post #43 by **Craig** » Sat May 06, 2017 1:59 pm

I totally get not wanting to lift them for Gs, since yeah, tanking. It's so easy to ice forwards and D's that put up no points and help your tank though. The rule just makes headaches for the commish.

This I understand. I was always pushing Dempsey for more IR slots, but he would never budge. If we up the IR slots would you still be opposed to stiffer penalties for missed minimums?

Also they only spot where I could see a lower minimum is goalie, but I think only a couple missed that min.

Craig · Post #46 by **Craig** » Sun May 07, 2017 8:59 am

The only spot keeping the higher minimum makes sense is goalie.

I'm all for more IR slots too.

More IR could help.

I see no point going there unless we can trade.

I like upping the ir slots
