Question regarding the new contract extensions.

If I look at the entry draft regulations for signing it says the following.

Quote
The Entry Draft Contracts should emulate the current draft market.  Figures may vary. Draft positions will be taken from their real life draft positions.

Draft Position - Salary
1 and 2 - 3.0M
3 thru 5 - 2.5M
6 thru 10 - 2.0M
11 thru 17 - 1.5M
18 thru 25 - 1.0M
26 thru 30 - 500k
30 thru 60 and over - 200k

Draftees will be placed onto the MiLR. All drafted players will start in the minors with no contract (N/C) and only have to be signed when the GM feels the need. If they remain in the minors without a contract and exceed 40 games played they have to be signed to their respective draft value or extension (whichever may be higher) or released to free agency.

My question is regarding the part at the bottom in regards to the value of the contract.  Now that the minimum contract extensions have gone up to 0.7m for forwards, 0.8m for defensemen and 1.0m for goalies I think that any drafted player should be able to be signed for the value of their draft position regardless of their extension value.

The reason I say this is once a forward say taken in the 3rd round in real life hits 1 GP in the NHL he automatically goes from $200k a year to $700k a year.  Now a goalie becomes an even worse case scenario as he goes from say $200k a year to $1m a year.

Just throwing it out there as the minor league rosters became larger, but now have less cap.  Plus with the restriction here you could easily max out your cap in no time at all.

Just food for thought as the extension values are fine with me, I just think that if a player is drafted we as GMs should have the rights to sign him for cheap and wait out in signing him until we see fit instead of signing him right away so that he doesn't become more expensive than need be.

Not sure I follow 100% but pretty sure I approve.

I'd like to see the minimum draft contract and the lowest extension value be at par and more in keeping with the NHL's base rate (currently $525k and escalating).

I think there's a solid case for both minimum values to be set at $0.5m.

Totally different thing. I see our mighty Commish is mucking around with the banner again. That's cool, but what would be really great is that if every time we opened a new window the team icons were still at the top of the page. I use them for soooo much.

Not sure how to explain this best but in Vintage if I click on a team, all the teams are still shown at the top heading. In BY if you go to a team, you have to back out to the main page to get to the header.

This would be HUGE!

Thanks for putting this up, just needs a simple re-wording now that those extension minimums changed. I will put this stipulation below each extension section:

Any prospect that is ranked over (blank number) will be signed to their draft position value.

Totally different thing. I see our mighty Commish is mucking around with the banner again. That's cool, but what would be really great is that if every time we opened a new window the team icons were still at the top of the page. I use them for soooo much.

I put a request into the helpdesk for that exact reason. I believe that is why the header is down right now.

That indicates he’ll be deciding on whether to opt out of a $30MM salary next winter, although the delayed date on the payment of the bonus reduces the team’s short-term commitment.  8:23pm: Blake Snell is in agreement with the Giants on a two-year, $62MM contract that allows him to opt out after the upcoming season, reports Jon Heyman of the New York Post (X link). San Francisco adds the defending NL Cy Young winner to the top of a staff that also includes last year’s runner-up, Logan Webb.  ADVERTISEMENT
