Dynasty NHL / Re: Extension cost discussion
« Last post by Rob on Today at 02:02:46 PM »a good gm has adapted to the rules we have. honestly I dont see any of these changes will make things better it will just make them different. If we are not actually solving a problem why make a change. if its not broke dont fix it
I tend to agree. But I also would rather be pro-active and fix it before it breaks. The problem we are identifying is that we are top heavy. We have a few teams that are producing at a clip that far exceeds the rest of the league. This has lead to stagnancy and apathy from other would-be competitive teams. How do we balance things out? How do we re-ignite our trade market that has gone very quiet over the last 5 or so seasons? I'd rather not wait for a breaking point before we do something about it.
Having said that, I do believe the changes we made a few seasons ago with extension costs need a little more time to fully flesh out - as Snug has indicated.
I like the idea of reducing the prospect extension term to introduce more roster turnover (force those top teams to make tougher decisions faster).
I like the idea of restricting cash trades in order to force rebuilding teams to spread their cash out to more teams instead of just to 1 or 2 cup contenders (redistribution of wealth? - lol).
I'm also not 100% sure that we NEED to change - but it's certainly worth discussing. And now is a great time to bring these things up.
