Bylaw Review – see link to bylaws on this page
Page 3 GAME overtime rules in playoffs. 4 on 4 for five minutes then shootout.
Page 5 Prizes Two Guzzler prizes, one for each Conference; Two Stanley Pint champs, one for each conference awarded custom Stanley Pints; GOALIE PRIZE! Finally – Two $50 Tallboy prizes, one each conference for most shutouts.
Roster Decisions:
We voted to allow defenseman, Shaun Adair (38) to skate with Scrap Dogs. He skates every Wed & Fri with me, so I know his ability and temperament, a good fit for our league.
We voted to allow a slightly underage girl, Taylor, to skate with The Mighty Drunks. Taylor has skated a lot with a weekly skate, a good fit for the league.
The Frozen Wings – 40 + and Scrap Dogs 40+ are still finalizing their rosters if you know of anyone wanting to skate.
Schedule / Crossover
We are not doing the inter-conference games this season since we have six each. (No old guys vs young guys games) What we will do instead, thanks to Jeff, is run a schedule of five games then schedule 1 vs 2, 3 vs 4 and 5 vs 6 in each conference. That way the points can be earned against your next best competitor, then repeat. Each team will still play each in its own conference four times.
Finance
Payments are collected through Hockey Community. Get your guys on the app, team managers can add to their roster, or have them go to www.gears.beer/ehl and I’ll add them to your team.
The first deadline is $625 by 9/15

Let me know if there are Registration payments that have not been credited to the player. There was an issue with the process of initial registration.
I think that is it. Thanks again for playing! I’m looking forward to another fun season.
