I haven't found as much time to work on my teams as I'd want but I'm coming along on with Nashville. Hoping to be done them by next week. If someone wants to take LA from me that's cool.

I'm about halfway with the Wild prospects. I've been swamped at work too. Do we have a due-date?

FYI, the Leafs' prospects are complete. Not sure if Manimal likes them or not but I did what I could--they have one of the best groups of prospects in the league but a lot of them are hit-or-miss type players.

The Blue Jackets are coming along. I spent an hour on Monday night and Tuesday night with the intention of finishing them on Wednesday but ended up scrapping my day-off when the daycares here in Québec closed for a 24-hour strike meaning the little guy had to come home with me.

Anyway, it's my wife's birthday this weekend so no research until Monday. Can't make any promises but my goal is to have them in Manimal's inbox by Wednesday night (Eastern time).

Have a good weekend!

I'm currently scouting a total wildcard in Kristians Pelss. Any idea of how to set the CA and PA?

I'm reading an interview at the moment and actully read both scouting reports and other things about him. Who wouldn't been curious after that draft pick?

Ps. Do you got another example sheet than the Bruins one I got? As I understood it it's better to just fill in the things that needs to be changed and not the good ones?

Found a four-leaf clover in this one:
"Rudmanis: The Belarussian Extraliga is a decent league, and could easily be compared to the EBEL (Austrian League), British Elite Ice Hockey League, French Ligue Magnus or other second-tier European leagues. However, as almost all the foreigners in Belarus are either Ukrainians or Russians, there is not much information available for it, which makes it one of the most unheralded leagues in Europe."
I'll go with a reputation of 6 as the English Premier League then?

Sure, go ahead with six.
I would probably have him at 45 or 50 in CA with a PA of -5 or -13

When a player splits time between two leagues, how do you calcluate the CA?

IE Michael Grabner played 20 NHL games last year with a CA of 119 but he played 38 AHL games for a CA of 83. Which would be his CA?

Yeah, he would only get 35 if I follow the table.

I hope to speed up the scouting this week and have it finished by the weekend if that is ok? Are there still that many teams unscouted?

No worries. As you see there are A LOT of teams left to do

With PIT done, I'll take Philly to help out.

I'm really going to try and wrap my head around how exactly to get this done. I have a pretty good idea, but reading the spreadsheet, there's a couple of things I need to get figured out.

If I can get it all figured out, I'll help out and try and get a couple of teams done. I have time during the day, so maybe I can get some help to the team and get this roster up and running!

Great! Just ask away and I'll help you get started

Thanks Mann-ee-mal! I'll get started on Calgary then.

Well phooey! Alright, I will check with another team. I went back and checked on the last page, and there was no name. No worries! I'll find another team and let you know.

EDIT: I'll start on Atlanta.

Just giving an update, I have about 10 or so prospects left to go for Anaheim. It would have been done by now, but I've been working like crazy, so free time is limited. I'll have it done for you soon, though.

EDIT: Oh, and if Tampa isn't claimed by the time I'm finished, if I think I have enough time to be working on it, I'll do it.

rfroese · Post by **rfroese** » Fri Nov 19, 2010 5:40 pm

All the Islanders PA's & CA's, player #s and physical attributes are done...
just have to dig into the scouting stuff. I'd be done if it wasn't for work and FM11... I expect to have it done by black Friday at the latest.

More than happy to help out if someone wants to give me a crash course in what to do.

Big T · Post by **Big T** » Fri Nov 19, 2010 11:26 pm

Hey I would be willing to do the Canucks if like stated earlier, I could get a crash course of what to do.

Leeman14 · Post by **Leeman14** » Sat Nov 20, 2010 10:03 pm

Blue Jackets prospects are now complete and in Manimal's email box.

Let you know if I have time for another team in the coming days.

Cheers,
