The buyout/credit loophole is also creating artifically high contracts. ie. Sergey Tolchinksy ( no way he goes that high if the GM knows he has to come good for the contract)
Just because your wife has an ahole doesnt mean you use it every chance you get or do you Slack?
You do realize you've been baiting the commissioner with your multiple BOs and resignings right?I would say put it in reverse and back out slowly. You've taken a wrong turn.
I'm sorry you see it that way. I used a rule as it is spelled out, and did so prior to any talk of abuse. You should be alarmed that this is more of a personality contest than pro hockey league. Decisions should not be made on a case by case basis depending on weather you like a person or not. Keep in mind that I bought out and Alexander Semin 3 times in a row last year without protest or warning. We all have a right to understand how things are going to work. The reaction to all this is entirely random.In any event, league owners should have more class than insulting GM's and their wives because they think they are challenging to deal with.
Well, I would disagree with that. I view it as a luxury tax for a future player. By the time he reaches the league, he could be a minimum salary player and a huge value. I'd get that argument for a competitive team, but not so much for a team a few years away. Maybe the argument you were aiming for has to do with drafting players with no experience? Same can be said about guys like Panarin/ Plotnikov/ Medvedev? All highly overpaid FA acquisitions. I like the buyout rule, but I think it should be a one time deal.

I would agree with this, and think it's an easy rule edit. But let's not penalize teams retro-actively for rules made up on the fly!September 10, 2015, 07:02:34 AMVoynov 2nd Buy-Out Discount Approved & ProcessedSeptember 11, 2015, 06:33:18 AM PigsRule's - Objectionable CommentsSeptember 12, 2015, 06:47:26 AMSlackJack - Created Ticket re: Code of ConductSeptember 13, 2015, 05:47:34 AMPigsRule's PM - "Now watch what I do"September 13, 2015, 06:54:14 AMPigsRule - "Violation" Penalty re: Voynov
