I think the league has enough wrinkles without adding more to it. Extensions are already low in comparison to what players sell for in FA. third reason , i hate the Montreal NHL team and really dont like many of their players.
Agree here. Don't fancy the hometown discount, I dispise Minnesota irl same thing. If anything hometown - place of birth would be more exciting but requires a hell of a job. I like it now being randomized with players
Again, I like the idea generally but these stipulations are not needed. See my post above.
Yeah sorry, don't really like it. I fancy it the way it is, which is great.
I'll always opt for the simplest approach so I'd lean towards nominating/branding at the time the player is drafted. It'd be a gamble and there is nothing wrong with that. Certainly this keeps us from having to track every single draftee moving forward.As far as tracking the original contract, I don't think it is necessary. If I trade Max Domi away and he is on a favourable contract then my trade partner gets the savings for the remainder of the contract. Just delete the Avs icon and move him along. I don't think we'd be facing a ton of 'sign and trade' scenarios especially if we had to nominate from the time they are drafted, as in most cases it will take several years for a prospect to start making an impact. Even if it does drive a few larger contracts down the over-all effect will still be less than if we are able to nominate 2 HTD's per year.
2) Actually play for the same team in the NHL as they do in FNHL
This stipulation ties your fantasy team to the real life draft ability of your namesake. This makes for an uneven playing field.....might be cute in a free league but it's not fair for this one.
