PDH Questions & Answers

Regarding IR and LTIR:

What's the rule on how players should be removed from IR/LTIR.  If a player is healthy and playing, will mod's force the player from injured status?  Or is the GM allowed to keep a healthy player in IR/LTIR indefinitely?

Good question, guess it is not stated but the most logical thing is everyone has to activate player when healthy within a reasonable time (thinking 3 or 4 days) and make necessary move if needed. Hoarding healthy guys on IR is not really fair though regular IR does always still require having cap space.

Will send PM about this so we are all on same page.

With an unlimited IR we gotta enforce some reasonable timeframe. I do an annual audit in DNHL. Allowing members to leave healthy players there until the end of the year. Though that won't really work here with unlimited IR spots. There will be too much stashing.

I would say go for a 1 week limit (real time) or played 3 games, then the player must be activated.

No real issue here. Went lower intially 3-4 days as a pfefered time, if at times team needs up to week or so to decide it's cool. I'm thinking even with a wierd season, I still can't see too posting crazy IR moves all the time to be an issue and odds are if you IR someone he still out multiple games, if not weeks.

If this doesnt work for whatever reason can change, but think we should be good.

Can we promote a minor To occupy an IR spot and return him in minor when the IR player is back

Yes this is fine, just wondering if we need to enforce cap hit or not. By the current rules it says all IR players count for cap but I am leaning on allowing minors on IR with no cap hit. I was actually going to move Isaac Ratcliffe to IR for my minors just wasn't fully sold 1 way or another on cap and I got no cap if we are counting it.

Any other thoughts on this?

No problem to count against the cap since most of our minors are 0.5k. We should be allowed  to use minors to replace an NHL IR and return him after the IR is back. Should not count against the number of roster spots

Oh I think my original response miss read your question, what I was referring to is an minor being injured and moving him to IR (this opens up minor spot only). I am fine to allow this but we will count the cap hit from minors to IR.

In terms of minor to replace NHL IR player, this is definitely allowed, same idea as signing a temporary FA and making a move to get back to 32 NHL players when IR player is back playing. Of course in this case you get NHL spot but the minor salary will always count, unless the NHL player is on LTIR then his cap space is used.

YES if he is promoted to the NHL even if he is on the ir count his cap hit per the rules
