PDH Questions & Answers

Players with 0-30 NHL games can be signed in Free agency after the Rookie Draft and Contraction draft are completed right?

Rookie Player Bidding (Players with 0-30 NHL Games Played)
- You cannot bid on players who are eligible for upcoming NHL Entry Drafts (ie. You can't bid on 16-year old phenoms)
- This feature will mostly be used following our PDH Rookie Draft where teams can bid on players who went un-drafted
- There will be an early Rookie FA Deadline to prevent teams from bidding on UDFA NCAA player who end up signing on with NHL teams later in the season - these players would be eligible for the PDH Rookie Draft (See important dates for deadlines)
- Rookie Contract FA's will assume a min. salary ($0.5m) plus whatever signing bonus is bid with them

How to Bid on Rookie Players:
- Bidding will be done in the form of a base Rookie Contract (RC) plus a signing bonus
- Signing bonus will count against your cap, and will be able to be split over 2 years
- Remember that RC's are not allowed on NHL Rosters if the player isn't actually in the NHL; This in effect negates the need for people to bid on a RC eligible player under normal FA terms, as they wouldn't be eligible for the NHL Roster
- Upon winning a RC player, their contract will look like: D Joe Schmoe, $0.5m (R)

Interesting, this helps lot. However, 1 think to note is the fantrax salary includes performance bonuses so in some cases the numbers is off, we are using just the base player salary as per post here and hockeybuzz.

On mobile so I'll check again shortly. Initial glance I agree most did look same but some performance bonuses do change things for certain players. Brady Tkachuk stood out. Either way if we have some discprancies this is still better than nothing.

Can send PM everyone we are still using posted numbers so on same page.

Looks like I accidently sent you Calle Andersson and Lias Anderson as part of trade with Rangers when it should have only been Lias. Calle has been dropped to FA and checking with Rangers if they want to keep him.
