WELCOME TO THE NSHL


Congratulations to the BROOKLYN FOURTEENTH for winning their second-ever Farley Cup in 2008.

Founded in 1996, The National Strat-O-Matic Hockey League (NSHL) is a play-by-email league using the Strat-O-Matic game engine. Twenty-four teams will compete in the 2007-08 NSHL season, the league's eleventh.
Each team plays 82 games over the course of a twenty-two week season, with the top sixteen teams advancing to the Farley Cup playoffs.

Home owners play four games every two weeks, either by following the road team's Computer Manager (CM) or by head-to-head play over Net Meeting. League files are centrally updated and can be found here. Owners also manage their team rosters, orchestrating trades, free agent signings and draft picks. Each two-week period begins and ends with the NSHL Newsletter.

In this issue of the NSHL Newsletter #11.20 of July 1, 2008:

Fourteenth Win Second Franchise Cup
In the end, it was a heck of a series, with all but one game being decided by a single goal. And again, in the end, it was the Brooklyn Fourteenth becoming just the third team in NSHL history to have their name etched on the Farley Cup more than once, defeating Houston in five games to be crowned 2008 champions.



Ovechkin Snatches Second MVP Award

Ovechkin took home the Gretzky Award as the league MVP in a runaway landslide over the rest of the NSHL field, making it two in a row for the Russian who is well on the way to being the league's next iconic player.
