FNHL Free Agency: Weak 2019 FA Class!

[Jonathan]

I counted more than 20 teams with at least 10M to spend.

Suggestions are always good for the sake of improving the league and I think that's the intent of Halo's post.

But yeah, that FA pool is on the shallow end.

true but I don’t see it staying that way as drafted players develop. 2015 is a very strong class and one like that hasn’t hit since. Now as suggestions go we could look to recant the 82 game rule back to say 42 games.

The Senator from Illinois has a strong point.

I prefer the 82 games for most rookies since they are seemingly abused between professional leagues. The salary adjustments coming will help narrow league capital availability. I could see an additional tier for duration here to help encourage owners to pay up for an extra year.

An additional idea would be to do a three year performance schedule versus two and really restrict the number of favorable contracts.

Goalies should be reduced to 40 games. I've always said it made no sense that a skater and goalie have the same games played for minor league eligibility. Its just not realistic.

i agree with this and admit to abusing this when I can.
