Reading through the rules I just wanted some clarification on the IR replacement player extensions.
RuleOption 2:Sign players via free agency, they will be put on an IR contract until the IR player returns. At the time the IR player returns these players must either be released to free agency or signed to an extension, at their current cap hit, and count against cap and roster size.I guess my biggest question is do we sign them to a extension based on their ranking at the time or do we just use the current contract say for example I have Jaromir Jagr signed for IR contract at $2m this season. Does he stay at $2m if I want to keep him or does he sign and contract extension based upon his ranking at the time Stamkos comes of IR?
