Yup, still is...did you get any of my messages about the league during the summer? Did your e-mail change?

Never received any e-mail about keepers, or a draft, for the league.

Guess I am done with the league.

If you guys change your e-mails, you need to let me know...I renew the league and I assume the same contact info carries over. Since the league isn't exclusive to T1B, I don't post stuff here. Your teams are still active. I haven't replaced you. Send me a PM with your current e-mail and let me know if you can't get into the league page.

My e-mail has not changed.

I never received anything regarding the draft, keepers, etc. The red flag should have gone up when you didn't see keeper picks. That's when maybe a personal e-mail could have been sent.

While my "team" is "active", I will certainly not be logging in to look at it. Should be a free week for whoever is playing them.

Does fantasizing about your 5-hole count?

I think Mucho is miffed.

Unfortunately, I can't find your e-mail through your ESPN account. I'd either have to catch you here or send a message through ESPN. You certainly aren't the only one who didn't get any of my messages and I sent out a few in September leading up to the draft.

This has been the busiest summer of my life becoming a dad. I basically did the draft with my infant son on my lap. Admittedly, I wasn't going to be hot on anyone's trail...I expected people to get a hold of me if there was any issues. 6 of 10 teams were represented at the draft...didn't know the status of the other four.

Then on top of it all...ESPN had revamped their fantasy hockey stuff where I couldn't even add keepers to teams who hadn't chimed in so a few of you ended up with completely new rosters because all your players went back into the draft.

Sorry for the communication issues...let me know what I can do to get you back into the fold. I don't want to not do this league going forward but in the order of importance, it's just something fun to do on the side. The fact it's been around for a while is probably the only reason I've kept it going. I'm in plenty of bigger and more involved leagues as it is.

Congratulations on fatherhood. I hope that you are enjoying it.

I did look at my team and it pretty much blows (losing Crosby and Toews hurts (probably would have kept Gourde as well)), but I will see what happens.

Yeah, I kinda wondered about doing this beyond this year. I was very slow at getting this re-organized and I obviously didn't do enough to reach out to everyone. Next summer is going to be frantic again because we'll be building a new home on property we just purchased over the summer. That's going to demand a lot of my attention in 2019.

What's the 7 roster acquisition limit? Daily limit?

I will also do my best to keep up in the off season.

I just figured we stopped since some teams were not really participating last season.

I like an acquisition limit just because if teams like to "stream", it doesn't take too many players out of play since when they're dropped, they're unavailable for a few days due to waivers.

I'd obviously like to see a more lively league. It's never been a big trade league. Seems like most of our rosters are the same from the draft. All and all, it's low maintenance...just not a lively league. I don't remember a point when it's been lively when it was primarily a T1B league.

I'm going to have to make as many acquisitions as I can. Auto draft killed me with too many Centers.

Going to be a long a long season for my team.
