What do you think of extending the Amnesty Buy-out period to enable new GM's to get rid of players that should have been dropped by GM's that quit instead? A GM that decides not to return at the end of the finals isn't likely to make any moves for the benefit of the franchise. Look at currently as a mock example. That franchise has $12m tied up in goalies that likely won't play next year....any GM that takes over would benefit from access to the ABO program if it were extended through the Summer. What do you think?
Personally I like the ABO period for 2wks. We also allow for postdating which is something Snugerud did his 1st time around FNHL with NYI cleaning up the last owner's mess. LOLAfter that the other key ways to get rid of contracts are through trades and buyouts.
Having a 2 week period is fine but it doesn't make the most sense for that period to start before GM's have committed for the next season.

You're missing the point PPG. It is not about how people do their buy-outs. But at what point they are committed to staying on as GM.
