- eligibility
All bbkl-free players (i.e. players not owned by any BBKL team) born between january 1st 1991 and september 15th 1993 are eligible for selection in the 2011 BBKL Entry Draft.
Additionally, bbkl-free players born between january 1st 1990 and december 31st 1990 that have not played a season in N.A. when 18,19 or 20yrs old are eligible as well.
All other bbkl-free players are eligible for the waiver draft instead.

NO window available after the Entry draft to pick up draft eligible players as free agents:
a player who is still eligible for the next BBKL Entry draft may not be claimed unless he is signed by a NHL team.
If he is NHL-signed, the player is eligible for the waiver draft and will become available as a free agent only once the waiver draft is completed.
After bbkl-rosters submission, NHL-signed players still eligible for next year bbkl entry draft will not be bbkl-FAs anymore and will be reserved for the next entry draft.

Those bbkl-free players that after the 2011 entry draft are not eligible anymore for the following year Entry draft become eligible for the upcoming waiver draft no matter if they are NHL-signed or not.

Does this make my pick invalid?

Boston Bruins would like to claim the rights of C, Andrej Stastny, from Vancouver Giants.

[kyuss]

Claim here. Remember, draft eligible prospects only and 1 per 24 hours.

Scott.. i would expect you to know what the CC approves

Draft eligible prospects that are draft eligible still, NEXT YEAR

[kyuss]

Draft eligible prospects that are draft eligible still, NEXT YEAR

?

both Andrej Stastny and Brendan Shinnimin would become bbkl-FA only after going undrafted in the Waiver draft, which they are currently eligible for.

P.S. same goes for Eronen.

[Lee]

The Philadelphia Flyers claim Reece Scarlett (replacing Shinnimin)

...legit?

[kyuss]

nope, just read the rules guys, they have been there for like 3 weeks.

There is no FA window between Entry and Waiver drafts anymore.

[Nick]

Kyuss is right here guys. Saved for waiver draft.

[Lee]

Nice. So I accept a lesser trade than what I was asking for because I was told I could take someone I was targeting, and then be told that I can't take him.

C'est la vie.

[kyuss]

and to further clarify, if Reece Scarlett gets signed by a NHL team, he becomes eligible for our waiver draft and if undrafted he then would be a bbkl-FA till rosters submission.

Otherwise (not NHL-signed), being a '93 born, he goes straight back to the Entry draft pool for the 2012 BBKL Entry Draft.

[kyuss]

you should have known about this by yourself though. btw, i asked to make that thread a sticky but mods didn't care about it... anyway, you can still use/get a waiver pick to draft him (if it's Shinnimin)

[Lee]

Everyone was told by an admin that we could take people.

he said "as far as I know"... on july 5th... rules stating otherwise have been there for weeks for everyone.

[Lee]

And then picks were made.. and then trades were made.. and then we were told that the picks weren't legit.

So there's that, I guess.

what? he posted that on july 5th.

[Lee]

It is July 5th..

[kyuss]

It is July 5th..

exactly, so what's your point?

[Lee]

Clearly over your head.
