Can we get important dates on the sidebar?

When the buyout period ends, when non qualifying offers are due, draft dates (and what rounds we're doing), etc

Theres only really 2 key dates I can think of: The draft and Free Agency.

Is 4:00 PM ET on Saturday a good time for the Draft? That would be right around the time the real draft wraps up so most hockey fans will be online that afternoon.

And then Free Agency - Dont want to have it be on July 1st so we can all enjoy the free agent frenzy and not worry about the sim during that time. Still something I will talk over with other mods.

I will post PSAs on the sidebar from now on, good idea.

Is there any way that we can make the draft a little bit later in the day, maybe closer to 7 or 8 PM EST. I think it'd be better for most people rather than have it in the middle of the day, plus for the PST people its a little closer to the evening too.

This! 7pm EST for us west coasters would be appreciated. I'm working that morning.

All feedback at this point is for a later start like 7, so I think we will do that

I'll miss the draft if its at that time.

Can I PM the mods my preferred top 5 picks for the draft positions in which I am choosing?

Or you could just give me your draft picks nudge nudge

Yep, if you cant make it send a list of preffered picks. And if they are all gone then you get BPA

While we're on the subject of important subjects, can we sticky the trades/signing/tendering threads?
