  1. The USHL has two drafts- the futures draft and the entry draft. The futures draft occurred yesterday. I assume this is the one your are wondering about.

    The futures draft allows for teams to protect the rights of the players that they select through the 2012-2013 season by having them on the affiliate listing. Meaning that players selected in the futures draft have their USHL rights held by the team that drafted them throughout this coming season even if they spend the year playing high school or midget.

    The USHL teams are limited to how many players they can "protect" and put on the affiliate list, so they are careful to try not and waste either their draft picks.

    Thanks for the reply. So this past futures draft protects USHL teams from losing a prospect to another USHL team, correct? It doesn't mean that a player has committed to the USHL, right?

    How does the prospect draft work?

  2. Question about the USHL draft - if a kid is drafted, did he already know there was interest in him and he acknowledged he would commit to a team, or are USHL teams drafting players and they hope they commit (instead of staying in high school)?

  3. How about something like this? I made a concept similar to this a couple years ago. I always like simpler fonts and designs.

    I like this design a lot. Maybe with an "old school" throw back third jersey. Is there a petition we can sign somewhere . . . :ohmy:

  4. It's pretty simple when you're used to playing with that stuff. Problem is that the quality on live games is terrible. When you watch the replays on there it's usually perfect quality. I watched the UND-Michigan game when I got back from the Frozen Four last year and the quality was perfect on replay

    I watched the UND/RIT game last year on ESPN3. I hooked my laptop to the TV and the picture was very good (right between HD and SD quality) with only a few minor hiccups.
