Place any suggestions you have to make this league better.
  • They can be additions such as new boards.
  • New Rules
  • Or really anything you want to see in the league

Clarifications on rules and general questions will still be used in the Questions thread.

I will start this off with 2 possible additions to the league.

1. RFAs - since this is an advanced league it would make sense to dabble in this. If done properly I think it could be a great addition to the league. I would be looking at this as a way to properly protect our drafted players. For example Landeskog and RNH are at the end of their prospect contracts this coming season as well as many others that could require an expensive upgrade especially Landeskog. If he plays the full season next year could come in at the top 5 at his position meaning he would be paid around $7.0m for an extension.

2. Backyard Hall of Fame - 1 GM maximum will be inducted at conclusion of each year. 80% of league approval would be required. If more than 1 GM is nominated then the GM with the highest approval rate would be inducted with over 80%. Must have 1 year time served to be nominated. Other stipulations could be discussed as well.

So RFA would be signed to cheaper contracts?

I was thinking of the opportunity to match in free agency which could be cheaper than the extension price. Teams bidding would also be required to compensate if the owning team doesn't match.

Tracking proprietary rights could be an unnecessary complication if you are talking about releasing a player to free-agency then matching the winning bid. Far easier to allow contracts to be discounted or re-negotiated before the player is let go.

I was thinking that it would only be players coming off 2 way contracts that GMs choose not to re-sign so there may only be 1-2 per team that are RFA each year. So by using my team for example I have the following 2 way expiring this year:
Ryan Nugent-Hopkins, $3.0m (2013-14)
Brett Bulmer, $0.2m (2013-14)
Devante Smith-Pelly, $0.2m (2013-14)
Jerome Samson, $0.2m (2013-14)
Scott Glennie, $2.0m (2013-14)
Dustin Tokarski, $0.2m (2013-14)

- Out of those currently only RNH and DVP are the only ones that would come off a 2 way and I don't see either become RFAs as a re-sign is pretty obvious as long as they don't have unreal seasons.

Tracking would be easy enough as I would simply have a file in the transaction hub that says which team has which players as RFAs. Like the following:

:ANA:
Jamie Benn
Bob Probert

:EDM:
Ryan Nugent-Hopkins

Once one of those players is won, the GM will have an allotted time to match or not match the winning bid. Matching would yield the player onto original team at the contract won at, not matching would yield the player to the winning team and the original team receives compensation via draft pick(s).

Sounds fun to me.....but I'm not the one who has to do all the work! What do you think about re-jinking how 2-way contracts are awarded in tandem with this?

If FA's could only be signed to 1-way deals it might help simplify. In fact, if draftees are the only ones eligible to be 2-way then it would really enhance the value of drafted players which blends seamlessly into your RFA model.

I have two suggestions for this.

A) We give a discount to all players with a 2 way contract... I do not have a number off the top of my head at the moment, but if we compare the numbers of say Taylor Hall in our league to Taylor Hall in real life, I am sure we can come to something.

B) We have two off season free agency periods. The first one would be dedicated to RFAs, and would start after the draft and it would be shorter than the second one. The second one would take place after the first one, and it will include everyone left in free agency. This will also let the original team get a chance to bid on their players and hopefully obtain a cheaper contract.

These are just rough ideas, but both of these ideas together will help increase the value of draft picks beyond what they are already worth.

I also do not think we should restrict a players RFA status to only belonging to the team that drafted them. In real life, the players RFA status moves with the contract. So why not move in this league?

Another thing we need to discuss with RFAs is compensation in regards to the amount of draft picks we have available to trade. At the moment, we can only trade picks in the next year's draft. Are we going to set a value of say $7 be worth 2 first? Then we should be free to trade future draft picks as well.

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
