Wow! This discussion has really morphed.  It's always good to have a lively discussion.  I'll add my $.02 in to the discussion:

$25K per point extension: 
Personally, I like the ease of this calculation and I believe that it is pretty close to an accurate calculation.  I support keeping this.

Reduced contract length:
I have no objection to this.  I always like to see a healthy FA market.

Cash trading cap
I support a limit that prevents this too:

but I like the idea of forcing these rebuild trades around the league instead of just one or two front runners hosing  down the entire roster.

Disparity
I don't like tanking.  I support requiring teams field an active roster. 

I would pair this proposal with an initiative that all teams field an active roster of 90% regular NHL players.

Trading
I do have to say that increasing the options in FA, does decrease the amount of trading, however, that could be offset by having more NHL players on rosters.  I believe more parity would increase the trade market as more teams would be competitive and in the running.

If you ever wanted to reduce the dependence on the NHL draft and increase the dependence upon our own draft, I believe that would also benefit trading.

Also, please update position eligibility.  Based on this year's milb games, he qualifies at 3B with 11.  If last year's milb games count, he also qualifies at OF & SS (the latter he already has).  Thanks!
