I think we could do this with one simple rule change. When extending a player the new contract must be equal to or greater than the expiring contract.
Great idea. It would address both FA and trade enthusiasm.
If you want roster turnover we'd really have to hammer down a rule on offer sheets.
Snugs rule sounds like a winner. Guys like Malkin shouldn't be making 5.8m a year. I'm still not sure how many more guys will be pushed into FA. Our league really does mirror the NHL. How many big names make it to the NHL FA. Very very few. There might be 2 or 3 top 6 players, which is essentially what we have every year. The way we are able to resign a player if we want essentially mimics a sign and trade situation. If you want roster turnover we'd really have to hammer down a rule on offer sheets.
