Ok, since I am new to the league, I will use this thread as my help section, hince Canadiens Q & A. I see we need a max of 23 players on our NsHL roster. Can all 23 players be assigned or is there a limit that can be dressed? Also the rosters and lines need to be sent, whom do they go to and in what format?
Thanks everyone for welcoming me to the league!
James Montreal

ok first...
Just like the real NHL we dress 20 players per game, even though you can keep 23 on your Pro-roster. So 3 people sit out per night.
Lines are sent to Nate, before he sims on a daily basis (or as often as your team is playing) You send him an e-mail with the lines as an attachment. You will need to download the GM editor from the FHL site (link found on NsHL home page) and you down load the league files from the home page for each game as well, these files include your financials and rosters to upload into the GM editor, once there you set the line-up, save them and then send that file as an attachment in your e-mail to Nate. You will need WinZip, to unzip the league files prior to uploading into the GM Editor....
I'm not Mr. Computer Savvy though, so some others might be able to help you a little more with the technical aspects of all these files and such.....GOOD LUCK!

I couldn't have said it any better myself. Thanks Gavin for helping him out. After you download GM Editor, download the league files from the homepage. Unzip them to an open folder. (I usually drag these three files to my desktop for easier access). Once you have GM Editor loaded and running, you click "LOAD" files. Select the .tms file from the unzipped league files and all the teams should pop up. Go to your team in its respective division and click on it. From there you can move your roster around. The GM Editor will tell you when your ROSTER IS COMPLETE or indicate to you if it is INCOMPLETE. After your roster is set, you can select "EDIT LINES". Here is where you can edit your line ups with the active roster you have chosen. ALL 4 rolling lines along with PP5 and PP4 along with PK4 and PK3. It has it all. After you are finished with your line up, click save. It will ask you for a password, don't type in anything, just ignore it and continue. YOU DO NOT NEED A PASSWORD. Find the file entitled ' Montreal.lns' file and attach it directly to an email to commissioner@nsimhl.com . Please put Montreal Lines in the subject if you please. Makes things easier for me. Voila! You are off and managing! Any other questions, feel free to email me at commissioner@nsimhl.com or grab an GM via ICQ. They would be more than happy to help. Once again, welcome to the league. I'm sure you will find our GMs to be knowledgeable, competitive, dedicated and eager to help. Good luck! Nathan Kopsack NsHL Commissioner P.S. Watch out for the Washington Capitals GM. He can be a real sheister. Kidding, Spencer.

Ok, next question (please bear with me guys, I want to do this thing right), in the player vitals link on the roster page, players are listed with a asterik some do not, what is the asterik for? Also the players have their salary plus years remaining on contract. If a player has a 0, when does his contract end, at the end of the season?

The astreik next to a players name means he is a rookie according to league standards.
A player with a 0 contract is either a RFA or UFA depending on there age.

Your player agent will be contacting you on getting your players under contract. I believe Mark is your agent and I will instruct him to send you an email early next week concerning the matter.
You will have to get those guys signed before the start of the seaSon but shouldn't be too difficult.

Great, sounds good. Ok two more, please dont kick me out yet, lol. I believe I know the answer to this one. Can you use players on your farm roster to play in pre-season without any sort of penalty?
PDP's, have they been used yet for my team? If not do I have until the start of the season to use them or when?

You can use any players on your roster to play. There is no penalty for putting PRO caliber players in the minor so that you can play your young guys.
TEAMS however, will have to submit their STARTING DAY ROSTERS ON MONDAY, November 22nd by 6 pm. Those final rosters will be transferred to the AsHL Commissioner so that he can begin updating the website with league files, etc.
Agents will be scouring your final rosters for contract violations at this time and during this period, hold outs may occur, gentlemen.
Your PDPs have NOT been used. Feel free to utilize them to your advantage and in accordance with the constitutional guidelines set for my the League.
Thanks James!
I appreciate your questions. Feel free to ask away.
