The 2025-26 Way Too Early Auction Review
It’s November 1st, so we’re not even a full month in to the season. Is that going to stop me from reviewing the auction and judging the results? It is not. Is this kind of stupid and flawed? Absolutely. Will I do this monthly? Annually? At the end of season when it makes more sense? […]
SFHL 2025-26 Season Preview
In our constant attempts at perfection, we continue to use dual sources of information for these ratings: The Forecaster and The Athletic’s Top 150 players list. The Forecaster appears to have decided that they were a little too conservative with the number of players listed last year, as the Total Players has jumped from 45 […]

SFHL 2024-25 Season Preview
We may be in to the final years of using the Forecaster as a predictive tool for the pool. It’s still available as a pdf, but I have to wonder how much they’re selling and the quality continues to drop. I’ll continue to use it for legacy reasons, but I’m preparing for the day it’s […]
SFHL Playoff Schedule + Trade Deadline
Folks, the Trade Deadline is upon us, and it's scheduled for January 20th at 4pm at Boston Pizza. Per Greg: Trade Deadline is set for January 20th, which works out for some perfect hockey watching: Canucks vs Leafs and Habs vs Bruins, both games at 4pm, followed by Edmonton vs Calgary at 7pm. So, 4pm […]
SFHL 2023-24 Season Preview
Here’s the thing. Frankly, the Forecaster is becoming trash. It’s a downloaded PDF only. The player photos are mid-90s era computer graphics. But worst of all, they cut a category I use for the annual rankings. The Breakthrough player category is no more. Instead, they appear to have expanded the On The Rise category, since […]
23-24 Season Planning
