      Determine how you will conduct your draft. There are two ways you can go about getting it done. First, you can have everyone come together, assign random drafting order and have them pick. Or, you could have everyone submit their list of players and assign them that way.

      Set a roster that is simple and easy to use. Proicehockey.com has a sample roster that works for those just starting their own fantasy hockey leagues.

      Choose a commissioner. This person will be responsible for enforcing the rules and settling any issues that come up during the year.

      Hold a couple of re-drafts throughout the season. This gives everyone the chance to ditch the worst players on the team and ultimately makes the league more competitive.
