Icehl 2011 YEARBOOK Pay Tribute the Winning Designs and Honor Those That Fell Just Shy of the Mark the world’s first crowd-sourced fantasy hockey league IceHLIceHL 20112011 YEARBOOKYEARBOOK INAUGURAL EDITION icethetics.info • FREE YEARBOOK IceHL 2011 From the commissioner... Hello IceHL Fans! What began as an ambitious idea to build and brand a hockey league from the ground up has turned into one of the most sought-after fantasy leagues on the web. In 2008, we began a design-by-democracy process of creating a league from scratch on the Icethetics blog. Readers voted on every aspect from deciding which cities would get teams to what names logos each should use. Two years after the project began, 20 fans breathed life into the league by taking part in our inaugural fantasy hockey season. As we begin our second year, I thought it appropriate to take a look back at how we got where we are and what happened during that inaugural season. I hope you enjoy this yearbook and the upcoming IceHL season! Chris Smith IceHL Commissioner www.icethetics.info P.S.: Try not to confuse me with the über-talented IceHL logo artist who shares my name and whose work you will see throughout this book. Enjoy! 2 YEARBOOK IceHL 2011 From the Ground Up... The project was announced as “From the Ground Up” on Aug. 10, 2008. In that blog post, plans were laid out for Icethetics’ biggest undertaking to date. Designing an entire hockey league from scratch would be an arduous process, but readers would be able to give their input in every decision made, every step of the way. NORTH AMERICA OR THE WORLD? After 69% of readers showed an interest in moving forward with the project, they were asked how the geography of the league should be defined. There were 1,450 votes cast during the weeklong poll and 59% chose a North American league over a global one. HOW MANY TEAMS? Voters were given the following options: 24, 27, 30, 32 or 36 teams for the new league. The poll, which began Aug. 18, finished with 1,186 votes cast, 34% choosing a 30-team league. THE DIVISIONAL ALIGNMENT On Aug. 24, a poll was opened to determine how the North American continent should be divided up for cities to be assigned teams. Voters were given five options. The following alignment received the most votes with 33% of the 2,208 participants selecting it. Visit icethetics.info to see the other options presented to voters. 3 YEARBOOK IceHL 2011 Selecting Cities On Aug. 30, 2008, the league still lacked a name but it was full steam ahead as Icethetics readers began selecting the cities that would eventually host its 30 teams. In each of the six divisions, voters chose from 12 eligible cities. The top five in each were awarded franchises.

Hundreds of names were nominated by hundreds of readers over several weeks. Ultimately, it was the user ratings that created the league that would be named the IceHL on Sept. 21, 2008. 6 LOGOLOGO DESIGNDESIGN COMPETITIONCOMPETITION Icethetics has always been a haven for artists with new ideas for hockey logo and uniform design. At the center of their artistic endeavors has been the NHL, an organization very protective of its identity and that of its member clubs. Because of this, some of the most talented creative forces contributing to the site could never do more than put their work on display for fellow readers to admire. They couldn’t really “own” it. Time for a change. In part, the goal of the IceHL Project was to give Icethetics artists a creative outlet that wouldn’t infringe upon the legal property of another. They would add color and life to ideas generated by their community. Their work would be admired in a completely new and different way. On Sept. 21, 2008, Icethetics began accepting artwork to be considered to represent the 30 teams that had been created, one division at a time. Those interested were given three weeks from the date of each division’s announcement to develop and submit a visual brand to be voted upon by the community. They were required to provide a primary

  • Dobber's 2010-11 Fantasy Guide
    DOBBER’S 2010-11 FANTASY GUIDE DOBBERHOCKEY.COM – HOME OF THE TOP 300 FANTASY PLAYERS I think we’re at the point in the fantasy hockey universe where DobberHockey.com is either known in a fantasy league, or the GM’s are sleeping. Besides my column in The Hockey News’ Ultimate Pool Guide, and my contributions to this year’s Score Forecaster (fifth year doing each), I put an ad in McKeen’s. That covers the big three hockey pool magazines and you should have at least one of them as part of your draft prep. The other thing you need, of course, is this Guide right here. It is not only updated throughout the summer, but I also make sure that the features/tidbits found in here are unique. I know what’s in the print mags and I have always tried to set this Guide apart from them. Once again, this is an automatic download – just pick it up in your downloads section. Look for one or two updates in August, then one or two updates between September 1st and 14th. After that, when training camp is in full swing, I will be updating every two or three days right into October. Make sure you download the latest prior to heading into your draft (and don’t ask me on one day if I’ll be updating the next day – I get so many of those that I am unable to answer them all, just download as late as you can). Any updates beyond this original release will be in bold blue.
