Dynasty NHL: Archive / Regarding trading cash/cap space

« on: August 22, 2011, 02:01:26 PM »

A while ago someone had asked whether they could trade any combination of players, picks and cash and my response was 'yes'. I hadn't really thought through how to handle the cash transaction at that point and shortly thereafter a trade was made exchanging straight up cash. I handled this by increasing one teams salary cap and decreasing the others. There's a few problems with this method. For one this isn't how it's done in the NHL, teams trade cash to pay down contracts but they don't trade cap space. Also it's hard to track. The cash transactions that have been processed were one time exchanges but future transactions could span multiple years and there's no way for us to really keep track of this on the spreadsheet.

I'm proposing any future cash transactions must be associated with a contract. This way the cash transaction will follow the player and we don't have to mess with the cap. All deals that have been processed wouldn't be changed, but going forward there will be no changes to caps and at the end of the season will all be reset to $70m. This makes things easier for us and makes more sense with how things are really done in the NHL.

Please let me know your thoughts on this.

Thanks,
Rob

Dynasty NHL: Completed Transactions / Bruins/Avalanche trade

« on: August 18, 2011, 01:52:15 PM »

receives D Kyle Quincy, $3.1m (2011-2012) & 7th round pick #14

receives a pat on the back

Quincy is likely out for the season so I am taking on his contract in exchange for a draft pick. Quincy could be a productive defenseman in 12/13 and his extension will be cheap so I don't mind having him on the books this year. Also if Savard retires I'll be able to store Quincy on my LTIR. I think it's a win win.

Colorado to accept.

Dynasty NHL: Archive / Positions on your rosters

« on: August 18, 2011, 10:55:54 AM »

A lot of them are not current. It would take me a ton of time to audit them all so if you see a position discrepancy between Fantrax and your roster page you can post on the transaction board and I'll fix it. Keep in mind the positions shown on your roster pages have no bearing on their eligibility, so you can leave it as it is, but if you want it changed for aesthetic reasons or whatever just make a post.

Dynasty NHL: Archive / Fantrax Premium League fee

« on: August 10, 2011, 11:06:50 PM »

If you're seeing the notice showing $59.95 owed don't worry about it. We still plan on moving to the ProFSL scoring if it's available in time. If not I will take care of this fee and we'll make the switch next season.

For a moment I thought Fantrax was trying to charge each of us $59.95, but it's the total fee for the league. Don't freak out! You don't have to pay to play in Dynasty NHL!

Dynasty NHL: Archive / ProFSL trade committee

« on: August 10, 2011, 11:22:46 AM »

I think our TC has done a great job so far being timely and thoughtful about the trades that have been introduced. I'd like to keep our trade approvals mostly in-house, however for any trades that are controversial I'd like to utilize the ProFSL TC. Going forward any trade that gets 2 or more vetoes will be sent to the ProFSL TC for approval. This way we avoid any trade drama that might arise. I've seen members leave other leagues because of trades that they were against and I'd like to avoid that along with any animosity between members here that might arise from differences in opinion over trades.

Dynasty NHL: Archive / Extensions! README!

« on: August 01, 2011, 03:44:30 PM »

I'm extending the deadline for extensions until tonight at midnight. There's a few of you out there with guys I'm sure you'll want to extend, like Sutter in Montreal, I'm sure Bill wants to extend him since he just traded for him.

After tonight extensions are done!

Dynasty NHL: Completed Transactions / Avs/Pens trade

« on: July 15, 2011, 01:54:11 PM »

Per PM:

gets Chris Stewart RW $2,900,000 (11/12) & 4th round pick #2

Dynasty NHL: Completed Transactions / Bruins & Pen's agree to terms

« on: July 15, 2011, 01:45:50 PM »

gets Chris Kunitz LW $3,700,000 (11/12), 2nd round pick #17 & 3rd round pick #17

gets Teddy Purcell C $2,400,000 (13/14), 3rd round pick #3 & 5th round pick #12

I trade a good young forward with a cheap contract for a veteran winger. I make this trade to, once again, fill positional needs. To compensate for the age/price difference I'm getting a better draft position in return. Considering that I'm edging the cap already I probably lose in this deal but since I traded a 3rd round pick for Purcell I've essentially received Kunitz for a 5th round pick and a better position in round 2, which to me is a total steal.

Pitts to confirm. Thanks cho!
