I think in its totality the extension setup we have is plenty conducive to building a "Dynasty". The top players in the league (top 50 or so) cost about the same as they would have cost before the change. It's the next level of 'above average' to 'average' talent that are more pricey than they were in the old extension rules. Teams have tough decisions in this bracket of talent. And that's true of the NHL as well. Most competitive teams will spend big on their top line, top D pairing and their Goalie, then add veterans and young guns to fill out their middle six and beyond. A guy like Tyler Bertuzzi, who I'd consider 'above average', but not elite, will inevitably end up in Free Agency. I think that's how it should be.
This setup certainly makes it harder to maintain a full, deep roster - even if you've built it from the bottom up with lots of Prospect Discounts. But, Free Agency is the tool to make up for that. And, let's face it - Hockey is not a sport that's conducive to "Dynasties" in the traditional sense. When was the last real NHL dynasty? The Oilers in the 80's? There's just too much parity in the modern NHL. I'm fairly certain that our player turnover with these rules is still less than actual NHL teams player turnover. 23

If any contending teams are seeking a productive backup, short term goalie option, I'd be happy to trade the extension rights to Jonathan Quick. He renews at $3.5M. Contract is voidable if he retires. Would do this for a draft pick.
OR, I'll extend him and pay 100% for the 24/25 season in exchange for a better return. 24

I pulled this out of the Q&A thread since it's as good a time as any to have this discussion. It's been a couple years using this method - how does everyone feel about it?
I still like the simplicity of it and I like what it does to inject good talent into Free Agency. Any numbers we use are going to be arbitrary in some sense. Unless we match their real life contracts. I do agree on the sluggish trade environment. Though I think the trade environment was sluggish before this change as well. As we've settled in over the years we have fewer and fewer trades. New GM's have been the only active trade partners. So I think it's partly a condition of longtime GM's sticking with their youth and cost controlled contracts and playing for the long haul. In early years we have a good number of teams playing it the way Cedric is now - going for the gold at all costs, future be damned. As GM's gain tenure they seem to get more and more conservative. That's my initial thoughts. As always I'm open to change if the league is. Let's hear what you all think. 30
