Divisions, Teams, Scoring, Scheduling

This section has information regarding team configuration and divisons.

Teams and Schedules

There are to be always an even number at teams within the league at all times, regardless of method of implementation; this includes but is not limited to dummy teams or commissioner-managed teams (the latter team types indicate that a team that is managed by commissioners or other chosen person, but does not make directly beneficial moves such as trades [lopsided or not], waiver pickups, etc.)

Teams and Manager List

Teams list (based on end of 2022-232023-24 season, minus teams that have left the league) is below:

Two other managers have left the league; however, their teams remain in a non-altered state (in terms of draft picks), therefore they will be removed from the league with no further implications.

Divisions and Schedule

PYFHL configuration is composed of 2 divisions, consisting of 65 teams each, playing ana 18-20-week regular season, followed by a 3-week playoff of the top 86 teams.

Each team will be scheduled as follows:

• • • • vs. eachall in-divisionteams teamat least 2x
      • vs. each2 out-of-divisionof teamall 1xteams 3x

Division placements will be determined by methods agreed upon by league members and upheld by commissioners.  This is a new feature for the upcoming 2023-24 season; thus, we are awaiting input on how to set up divisions.  Division template is below:

Scoring

Scoring is tweaked on a year-by-year basis, ensuring that a fair and level playing field exists, while valuing the most important aspects of the game.  The point of hockey is to put the puck into the opponents' net, and thus goals are valued the most.  As of the end of the 2023-23 season, the below scoring models were used.  Per league manager input, we will be reducing PIM, increasing HIT and BLK, and re-adjusting the goalie scoring model to allow for more flexibility.  Changes to come soon.
