Six Themes - - One Champion FULL ! ! ! Topic

AUGUST 17, 2016 UPDATE:
Rookies and Retirees is the final theme available. With that being said, I have been site mailed by a couple of our most tenured members, who are willing to swap teams.

If you just can't make R & R work, site mail me with a division or 2 that you would like to try, and I will see if there is anything I can do.

(I really like the R & R roster I have entered, though. Hopefully you can become similarly inspired!)


This league will feature a different theme for each division.

Multiple team owners are welcome, but depending on the themes you pick, you might wind up with both teams in the same conference. I'm not going to juggle divisions around to try and move a team to the other conference, so be warned!

Salary $100,000,000
Injuries: 8
Turned OFF: Shootouts, Playoff Intensity, Trades, Waiver Wire, Minor Leaguers, Clones

Smith Division: "Rookies and Retirees"

Each player must be in their first or last WiS database season.


Norris Division "Lucky Number" (This Division is full!)

Pick a number between 0 and 99 (inclusive). Each Forward and Defenceman you draft must have that number as one (or more) of:
-goals scored
-assists scored
-points scored
-defence rating
-penalty minutes
-games played
***JUST ADDED: SHOTS ON GOAL*****

Goalies: draft whoever you like.
For this theme, numbers are exclusive, so if Frank picks 50, the other three owners in that division can't have 50 as their "lucky number". (But it is fine if another owner happened to draft a player who happened to have scored 50 goals or had a D-rating of 50.)


Adams Division: "Knickers in a Knot: It's so Twisted!" This division is now full!

Choose a franchise, and then draft a team of players who played at least one game for your franchise.

The "twist" is that all seasons must be twisted. For example, If you select Los Angeles Kings, St. Louis Blues, or New York Rangers, you can use Gretzky's epic 92-120-212 season, but a person who selects the Edmonton Oilers can't.

Within this theme, franchises are exclusive.


Patrick Division: "It Was A Very Good Year" (This Division is Full)

Pick a year, and then draft a team based on the 2 hockey seasons played during that year.

Example: If I pick 1979, I would build my team using players from the 1978-79 and the 1979-80 search results.

There is no time twisting here....it's NOT allowed to use the 1981-82 Gretzky version just because Gretzky shows up in the 1979-80 search results. All 23 player would come from either the 1978-79 and/or the 1979-80 search results. (So if you want the 1981-82 Gretzky, you will have to pick either 1981 OR 1982 as your exclusive "Very Good Year".)

Within this theme, years are exclusive. (Although there could be some overlap in players if I pick 1981 and you pick 1982....we can each be using players from 1981-82.)


Bavis Division: "Alphabet Soup" This division is now full!

The last names of each of your 23 players must begin with a different letter.


Bailey Division: "All in the Family" (THIS DIVISION IS FULL)

Boy the way Glen Miller played,
Songs that made the hit parade,
Gee our old LaSalle ran great,
Those were the days....


Every player on the roster must have at least one:
brother
cousin
father
grandfather
son
grandson
uncle and/or
nephew
grand uncle
grand nephew
cousin
on the team. I'm going to leave in-law business out of this theme.

We will use this list as our official reference list:
