Commissioner Beketov 9,022 Posted March 11, 2017 Commissioner Share Posted March 11, 2017 Did I miss a memo on it’s removal or have half the teams in the league just decided not to care about it?

hedgehog337 3,483 Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 I only remember about 8 games for backup but my Joanna has 3 games already according to VHL index. Should be alright then?

So Stockholm, Quebec, Cologne, Davos, and Riga have all started their starter too many times... Technically Toronto has too but it’s already TOR G so it really makes no difference haha Banackock 1 Link to comment https://vhlforum.com/topic/38561-backup-rule/#findComment-419918 Share on other sites More sharing options...
hedgehog337 3,483 Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 Wait, backup should have 8 starts at least, or something? Ok dis hard. Never even saw that rule btw, although I might have reading issues once again.

It’s always been the case. Link to comment https://vhlforum.com/topic/38561-backup-rule/#findComment-419921 Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s always been the case. My mistake is when I was making all these trades and clickbait articles while completily forgeting about the lines (yeah, auto-lines for 10 or so games). I made the lines only yesterday and put Joanna in, but apparently it's too late.

But usually it gets taken care of. It was just bad luck on Jardy taking off exactly at game 64. We can't blame the GMs when we've allowe this for th last gd knows how many seasons.

With all the potential backup goalies in the draft I would argue that this rule is going to be more important moving forward if anything. It was created so that backups didn’t sit on the bench all season; just so happens that 99% of the time teams only have 1 goalie.

If someone has 2 active goalies I don't think one of them is going to be much less annoyed if they play 0 games vs 8 games and if you wanted you could stipulate each human goalies has to get x amount of games but I don't see why we're forcing CPU's played over humans.

Fire Tortorella 2,653 Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 It shouldn't be up to the simmer to play a GM's backup goalie for 8 games. GMs don't have that much to do during the season, they should be able to manage this.
