After 10 voters:
1) 3 YES, 7 NO
2) 10 YES, 10 1 DAY
3) 1) 5 YES, 3 NO
2) 4 YES, 4 NO
4)1 YES, 8 NO
5) Remove GAA: 0 YES, 9 NO
Remove SO: 3 YES, 7 NO
Add Saves: 6 YES, 4 NO
Add FOW: 2 YES, 8 NO
Add SHP: 7 YES, 3 NO
Add Points: 2 YES, 8 NO
Add GWG: 5 YES, 5 NO
I am not voting to avoid ties, so there are only 13 voters (aka - 7 votes either way is the majority). So, according the the votes there will be no veto system, there will be one day waivers, and the draft order will remain as is. I'm going to leave the stats up for vote because we want to make sure we have the right ratio of skater stats to goalie stats, right now according to the votes it would most likely be 7:5 which I don't think would be a good play. So I will leave those up for vote and we will decide how many stats we want for goalies and skaters and go from there.
So, for the remaining three people, this is what needs to be voted on:
1) Turnover system as described by Pittsburgh:
2. A yearly turnover draft system- Here is an example. The top 6 teams that make the playoffs will be asked to only protect a certain number of their players. Say the champ protects 5, 2nd protects 6, 3rd 7 and so on to 6th protecting 10. All the rest of their team's players would be thrown in a draft pool. The amount of players a playoff team could lose would be based on their performance. (ex. 1st can lose up to 3 players, 2nd and 3rd can lose 2, 4th-6th can only lose 1) Goalies may also need to be protected in addition to the allotted amount if say the team only has two (goalies are a fragile commodity)... although that can be debated if it is necessary.
The bottom 8 teams would then select from this pool. You could have different rules like if a team finishes in the bottom 3 two years in a row they get 3 picks. If a team finishes out of the playoffs 2 years in a row (but not both times in the bottom 3 ) they get 2 picks. If a team only finishes out of the playoffs 1 year they get one pick. All of these different stipulations are up for debate but you get the idea. The drafting order would be the same as the drafting order for the other drafts would be (reverse order or based on lottery if we do that).
Remember after the playoff teams lose 3,2,1, or no players in this draft they get all the rest of their guys back of course.
Various other rules can be done in a similar basis but for longer periods of dominance. (we have a rule called the dynasty effect rule where if you when the championship two years in a row you can only protect 10 players and EACH team out of the playoffs gets one unprotected player from you. This of course is a more severe depth attack on your team because you would lose 8 players instead of only 3 or 2 but they wouldn't be in your top 10. This same rule applies to any team that finishes top 3 for 3 years in a row)
Vote yes or no for a turnover system, AND vote for #1 or #2, or both if you'd like.
2) Now comes the mess of statistic changes. I'm not sure exactly how to structure this so I'm going to do it this way and majority will rule out:
Should GAA be removed?
Should SO be removed?
Should Saves be added?
Should FOW (face-off wins) be added?
Should SHP be added?
Should Points be added?
Should GWG be added?
1) 3 YES, 7 NO
2) 10 YES, 10 1 DAY
3) 1) 5 YES, 3 NO
2) 4 YES, 4 NO
4)1 YES, 8 NO
5) Remove GAA: 0 YES, 9 NO
Remove SO: 3 YES, 7 NO
Add Saves: 6 YES, 4 NO
Add FOW: 2 YES, 8 NO
Add SHP: 7 YES, 3 NO

Add GWG: 5 YES, 5 NO

1) Turnover system as described by Pittsburgh:
projectreturns said:
1. Consolation Tournament Prize- We could award a high pick to the winner of the consolation tournament. This will create interest for teams to stay involved out of the playoffs and also help one lucky team rebuild faster. We would need to evaluate how high the pick needs to be to be appropriate but I assume in a dynasty the draft will be pretty thin so it will probably need to be somewhere in the first round... perhaps sandwiched in the middle between pick #7 and #8. 2. A yearly turnover draft system- Here is an example. The top 6 teams that make the playoffs will be asked to only protect a certain number of their players. Say the champ protects 5, 2nd protects 6, 3rd 7 and so on to 6th protecting 10. All the rest of their team's players would be thrown in a draft pool.
