You got further than I did, Jake. lol I got "invalid invitation". (may be expired or may need permission it says) Heard good things about Discord, but admittedly my 1st time using. Do I need to set up an account first? (and do I absolutely need to enter phone # does anyone know to setup account?)

Try this one Chris: discord.gg/p3smRyf5As for the account stuff, i dont see why you would NEED to have a phone # in i dont use that info on mine at all. I do think you will have to make an account to use Discord though.

UPDATE:Teams have been updated and there are only three teams left to fill / confirm return. Also I may have jumped the gun early on the redraft vote as it is now tied. PLEASE MAKE SURE TO GET YOUR VOTES IN. Anything after tomorrow at 11:59pm EST will no longer count, if the vote is still tied I will continue with the plan to use the old save. Vote Here: strawpoll.com/polls/e6Z2elNYJgNAgain if anyone knows someone who would like to join, we need at least one to take over the former Philly roster. Thanks guys.

You don't need it. Like I said before i will still be posting info on site and on here as usual. I don't want to isolate people that don't want to download apps or make new accounts. Just thought discord would be a fun way for us to communicate.

I assume we are still keeping our JGHL proboards?
It was definitely cool checking out our uploaded rosters. I missed fiddling with lines and plans in my little excel spreadsheet.

Yeah proboards won't go away untill I can get the history stuff up on the site. And even still it's probably still the best place for drafts and FA

I assume by now everyone has seen the email from the other day. after that email Gavin and Ron brought up some good points in favor of a redraft. I figured I would use this as a chance to explain my thoughts preference and give everyone one final shot to argue their case. Unfortunately it seems no matter what choice is made we will have some managers re-evaluate if they want to return, if this is the case once a final decision is made please let me know asap so I can plan accordingly. Essentially from a work perspective I believe starting fresh would not only reinvigorate the league, but make my work on the back end a tad easier. I don't want to lose any of the managers but I would hope that everyone would understand that, at least for now, this is still a one man show on the back end. I realized after I sent the email the other day that no matter which direction we go I will need to take time to adjust our free agency guidelines as they rely heavily on player OV stats and with a new rating s package those numbers have changes. Doing that with a redraft will be easier than trying to adjust for current rosters. I had never really considered starting from behind I had always planned to just call the last 2 seasons a scratch and I realize I should have probably gotten a league consensus on that before starting this whole process, so i apologize for "jumping the gun". Anyway id love to hear other managers thoughts for both sides. I know some is that they feel they have invested into their team and want to see the payoff which I understand, but at the end of the day i just want to come to a solution that is not only the easiest for me from a work stand point but also has the league not lose many, if any, managers. I will leave the link to the poll again here: strawpoll.com/polls/e6Z2elNYJgNPlease take the weekend to evaluate your thoughts, change your votes if you need too. We all share a passion for this league and i just want to see it come back as its best self. I will pop on from time to time this weekend but it is my son's 1st birthday party tomorrow so i may not be around frequently. I hope that we can get this resolved and a final decision made early this week so i can get this back on track for stat up around real life NHL preseason. Thanks Everyone!

First of all… thank you for taking this on. In light of what you have written and the nearly perfect split vote, i think we should redraft full teams including all currently drafted and undrafted players asap and get going. This means we dont need to do an entry draft this year, and we can get right into the leauge again. Do we have any prospects to fill the enpty team slots?

The "last resort" option is to fold the teams that don't return before the redraft

I’m in favour of a full redraft, but I will go along with anything.
