Official Guidelines: Owning 2nd franchise

[PigsRule]

Glad to hear it. My intention is to continue expediting the process by purchasing another team and bringing in another strong GM as I did in Carolina. If I gift one franchise a year it shouldn't take more than a decade to make a real difference.

Slack there's a plan. Health of the league comes first.
Serious owners who want to build winners and believe in the league is what we want. Everything else will fall into place like any strong league.

The goal is to move closer to one owner per team when the time is right.

Am I in a rush to do that given strong ownership is in place, nope! FNHL has worked hard to bring in the best owners and create a stable environment. It's stable, we got a plan moving fwd.

Bottomline SL we hear you + we're on the same pg.

I'm not saying we should only have one owner per team this year. But capping it at two wouldn't be a bad idea. You know.....like it says in the rules?

Commissioners building the league have also made it clear

It will probably boil down to the caliber and commitment of the owner makng the request.

E40 is a standup owner. He invests in Profsl teams. It was a great gesture to the league he invested in additional teams. When we find smart new hockey men to join we will invite them in.

I will be relentless on this issue but I have no hostility. With that said hopefully we can agree that multiple ownership should gradually be curtailed starting with enforcement of existing rules. To be clear I am speaking to the ownership of 4 teams by e40. Perhaps next season we could see a change there?

If nothing else I would applaud e40 for investing in the health and long-term outlook of this league.

In fact I think you also deserve congratulations for introducing Favo to the league through your second franchise which he eventually took ownership of.

Do I agree that Franchise NHL should move toward one owner per franchise? Yes, absolutely! Do I agree it needs to happen this upcoming season. Absolutely No! We need to ensure ownership and roster stability of most if not all teams before asking committed owners to sell their extra team(s).

That said, I will choose the current situation however would like us all to revisit the policy at the end of the 2015-16 FNHL Finals.

2) Owners can own a maximum of 2 Franchise NHL teams at any given time.

So if there are already 5 owners with multiple teams in FNHL there won't be anymore for sale as a 2nd team? Do I have that right?

We can vote on it if there's a demand over and above the initial limit of five we outlined. It will probably boil down to the caliber and commitment of the owner makng the request.
