Fictional League Start Dates

[Orioles1966]

I wrote them(FHM 2014) down on paper-yep-it's 34.

Its good too know ahead of time so I can plan the Custom Leagues. Plus with Historical Custom Leagues .

Ok, I guess I was having a bad counting day.... In that case yes, the setups available would be the same as FHM 2014.

For my first Historical Custom League-I want to recreate the 1967-68 NHL(I will change Fictional players names too match the real players names) plus I want two additional teams(Baltimore Clippers,San Diego Gulls).

I will hold an expansion draft before the game is released. Each team will keep 3 goalies,6 defensemen and 12 forwards and having at least three players for the expansion draft with each team losing 3 players.

Looks like it will be three division ,78 games set-up.

expansion draft rules (number of players selected from each team) are not customization.

I am doing this by hand(remember the old days).

Each NHL team will lose 3 players:
Boston;Chicago,Montreal,California,Minnesota and Pittsburgh will lose 2 players each to Baltimore and 1 player each to San Diego


Detroit,New York,Toronto,Los Angeles,Philadelphia and St Louis will lose 2 players each to San Diego and 1 player each to Baltimore

I will go to the hockey database and get the rosters and make sure each team has 3 players available.

I am doing the draft before the game is released so the rosters will be set. The Fictional players will be changed to the correct players on the 1967-68 NHL teams plus the two expansion teams that will make a 14 team league.
