I think the same committee may also be tapped to handle All Star ballots, etc? It's along the same kind of lines....would certainly be nice to have 5-7 guys on the committee looking at all of these yearly "superlatives."

Sounds like Sean Croft, Chris Hessel, Nate Hickerson, Tony Pisano, and Ron Jones. Andrew if you are feeling froggy? Most correspondence can be done via email these days so all you need is a common email thread to get organized.
Perhaps you can get something organized (on paper or Microsoft Word) and get an official proposal over to Jade and Roger in regards to this. I would happy to toss my hat into help in any way that I could, however, would MUCH rather see a group of GMs who have no other responsibilities outside of their own teams be able to commit to something this important, necessary, and awesome.
Personally, I think that yearly All-Star Balloting (collection, tabulation, and announcements), Player awards, GM Awards, and then, of course, the HOF process (nomination, voting process, etc.--which all have to be discussed and laid out in detail) could/can be handled from this committee. It would be a REAL fun committee to be on, in my opinion.

The NsHL Recognition Committee? That way everything would fall under that umbrella.

Although I'm on the BOG, I'd love to help out on the awards.

Sounds like Sean Croft, Chris Hessel, Nate Hickerson, Tony Pisano, and Ron Jones. Andrew if you are feeling froggy? Add Joshua Raines to the committee? AWESOME!!! I think its a very dynamic, diverse (4 Western Conference GMs and 3 Eastern Conference GMs), and a very solid core group. Sean, do you want to head it up? Since it was your idea and you have actual life experience with things like this. Steps: 1) I would have a point person to act as a communication vehicle for the committee to the Commissioner and NsHLPA Director (as well as the other members of the BOD and BOG). In essence, a chairman. How you set up the rest of the board should be entirely up to you guys. 2) Submit a plan to Roger and Jade as to how the following pieces are going to be administrated: * All Star committee * Yearly Player Awards * Yearly GM Awards * HOF Nominations and Inductions 3) Committee structure---In other words, what happens when someone needs to leave the committee? Are GMs elected (by the committee) or are they appointed by the Chairman etc. This simply takes the guesswork out of how to get in and out of the committee. 4) Wait for league approval 5) Pat yourselves on the back for having the ambition, drive, and enthusiasm to create something this cool and great for the NsHL. ********************************************************** Awesome idea, gentlemen!!!! If you need me for anything, do not hesitate to ask. I think this is an absolutely awesome idea. I'm sure I am missing some things, however, I am certain that the group of guys involved already can fill in the gaps much better than I could. Take it and run with it!

I would love to head this up if everyone else will have me. Obviously, I don't want to just step in and take it over without the blessing of the other board members. In the meantime, I can take a few days to draw up my plans and get the feedback of the other board members. After we come to a joint decision on how to act, and we sign off on something we all agree to, I will formally submit the proposal to the higher ups, assuming I am the person decided upon to act as the head, and we can take it from there.
What do you guys say?
