Franchise NHL / Re: RULE INTRODUCED: Cannot BO & Draft a Drafted Player
« on: January 17, 2021, 12:50:28 PM »
This new rule is to prevent circumventing the cap hit attributed to a top prospect.
In the past 2 seasons, we have seen teams dropping or Buying out a top prospect with a pricy ELC only to draft them in the Supplemental or Special Round 5 portion of the Entry Draft.

Rule Introduced January 5, 2021: Teams prohibited from Releasing or Buying out a MiLR player, player on ELC only to draft them in the Supplemental, Entry or Special Round 5 portion of the Entry Draft.

Example: Jack Hughes selected #1 overall should earn a $3.0M ELC but was bought out and drafted during the 2020 FNHL Supplemental Draft and will be signed to a league minimum of $0.7M - as of today, this practice will not be allowed as Hughes deserves his $3M ELC contract and this circumvents a sizeable cap hit the drafting team should accept.

Moving forward as of today January 5, 2021, this practice will not be allowed. :judge:

Good Rule change

The Rd 5 pick for Seattle :SEA-NHL: - is that treated like an entry draft pick or like a supplemental pick as with the Division winners? I want to make sure I've got the right prospects lined up. LMK Thanks.

Yes

Franchise NHL / Re: NHL 20/21 season start date?

Seems the talks between NHL and NHLPA have been holding things up for the hockey world.
I'm guessing the PA wants to get the NHL to give players an opt out of play while the NHL probably doesn't want to allow it.

The NBA has an interesting setup but they only have 1 Canadian team to contend with. The NHL will have a tough time getting things started in January if they don't come to an agreement with the PA by mid-December.

Agreed; let’s hope they reach agreement quickly for the fans.

I say they drop the puck to start the regular season on January 18, 2021.
It should be January 11th but there will be positive COVID tests early on during training camp leading to slowdown/shutdowns for several days/wks in December.

That's my guess.

I follow that logic; good as guess as I would have.

I am noticing this looks like an A B conversation so I’m going to C my way out. So sorry to interrupt

Franchise NHL / Re: FNHL History - Stories
« on: November 13, 2020, 09:49:03 PM »
My story isn't directly about FNHL but about my BY experience. Still involves FNHL indirectly.

I think I was in BY for all of a week or 2 when I first joined Profsl. I didn't reply to a PM for 5-7 days and got kicked out by Drew for not being active enough for his precious BY. You could tell the guy had too much time and no family, definitely no kids or a house. All I could do was laugh. My guess is the guy actually created spawn now and understand he was premature with his decision. From what I hear he disappears for stretches now. Karma. :thumbsup::thumbsup:

How does this indirectly involve FNHL?

Well, all I can say is after that regrettable encounter with Drew, I appreciate how professional and mature PR & PPG are in this league. People seem to get it here. Play hard but relax and don't let stuff wind you up.

Then seeing how Drew used commish privileges to retroactively adjust his lineup numerous times to win matchups just made a lot of us question those FNHL champions. It did for me. Maybe that huge Anton Forsberg BO cap hit is bad karma slapping the face of that Minnesota Wild franchise.

That’s some laundry

You know I'm just adding my version of Antman to this thread right. But I have to say Indians ripped my heart out when he traded away Sebastian Aho, Nikita Gusev AND Johnny Gaudreau from my heavily scouted former San Jose Sharks franchise. At least Rock On has worked on rebuilding the minors over there. :thumbsup:

Feels like a separate unique perspective entirely. I’d just call it a Burkeeee

I think we both value prospects so I could see how that might be viewed as wreckless management.

AntMan's bullying me again MOM! :rofl::rofl: We are all watching you continually assembling the best young roster. :thumbsup: So we don't feel bad for your Colorado Avalanche. Not one bit. But I have to say it'll be tougher without the assistance of Indians. :rofl: Some of us still talk about how the Avs were gifted Cayden Primeau.  :puke::puke::thumbsup:

I’m happy to discuss this because I think there is a cluster of teams stuck on this one transaction and holding up trade conversations creating a Venn diagram or silo trade circles where we should be wide open but very few are in the overlap.

Let’s remember Cayden was the 29th best goalie spec at the time and hadn’t be regraded as some Price equivalent. Boston trades a Late supplemental to Indians for a first. Colorado then offered up a supplemental on the trade block having two left and we struck a deal with indians agreeing on two supplementals for Primeau. IMO at that time the first was worth the same or slightly more than Primeau so I had the lesser of the deals. There was a trade committee and I’d say they (yourself included) agreed at that moment demand and value was high on those supplemental picks. You just have to vote and move on and you must have agreed then.

Certainly no more of a gift than Binnington who’s actually producing in FNHL.  :puke:

Let’s also remember some trades go bad for Colorado and others also. Who deals for Beartschi giving up McAvoy.

Pick your poison in a league of sharks. That’s why we need parity rules so the big sharks get challenged. You’re the biggest shark right now BB. They’re going to come for you...

Com'on Ant! Don't give my Habs a hard time. We haven't played one another enough times to even develop a rivalry.

You’ll be ok w/o goalie compensation, you have a top team.

  • indiansnation: Giants To Sign Blake Snell March 18th, 2024 at 8:45pm CST • By Anthony Franco 8:45pm: Snell receives a $15MM salary for the upcoming season and has a $17MM signing bonus that will not be paid until 2026, reports Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle (on X). That indicates he’ll be deciding on whether to opt out of a $30MM salary next winter, although the delayed date on the payment of the bonus reduces the team’s short-term commitment.  8:23pm: Blake Snell is in agreement with the Giants on a two-year, $62MM contract that allows him to opt out after the upcoming season, reports Jon Heyman of the New York Post (X link). San Francisco adds the defending NL Cy Young winner to the top of a staff that also includes last year’s runner-up, Logan Webb.  ADVERTISEMENT
