Vancouver joins Our Ranks
Melvin James has joined us on the Board of Directors.
The Board of Directors have approved new rules meant to streamline the decision of whether or not a GM wants to retain a signed RFA player or accept compensation. These new rules are as follows:
After a RFA is signed to an offer sheet, if the team that signs him has the appropriate compensation, after the COM inputs the compensation, the GM that owns the RFAs rights has 48 hours to decide on whether to retain the player or accept compensation. After 48 hours, if the GM with the player's rights fails to make a decision, the Board of Directors will decide whether the team should retain the player or accept compensation.
If a player is signed during the OffSeason, then the GM who owns the rights to the RFA has until the start of the PreSeason to make a decision on whether to retain the player or accept compensation.
If the GM that signs the player does not have the appropriate compensation, the two GM have one week to negotiate appropriate compensation.
If the GM that owns the player wishes to retain the player, he is to inform the COM immediately.
If the GM that owns the player wishes to accept a compensation package as negotiated with the other GM, the two GMs are to email the COM with the details of the package. If the packages are the same, the COM will input the package on UHS.
If after negotiating, the two GMs fail to come to an agreement, the GMs email the details of the final compensation package to the COM. The Board of Directors will then determine if the package offered is fair or not. If the compensation package is deemed fair, the GM who owns the players rights will have 48 hours to decide on whether or not to accept compensation or retain the signed RFA. If the compensation package is deemed unfair, the offer sheet is cancelled and the GM who signed the player to an offer sheet is fined. The RFA is then returned to Free Agency.

Due to hectic few months, Sean Burke has resigned his position as Board of Director. He will continue his role as GM of Toronto. With any luck, Sean will be returning to the Board of Directors in the future.
The Board of Directors have voted on changes to how we deal with salary cap offenders.
1) If a team is over the salary cap, they will be fined 2x the money they have been fined all season.
2) If the money the team is fined all season is $0, they will be fined 2x the amount they are over the salary cap.
3) The GM will receive a reminder to reduce his salary cap after the fine.
4) If a team is over the cap for 4 consecutive games, the GM will be subject to dismissal.
