OK. Here's a game that people can play if they want where people can pretend to be the GM of a team, and we can make trades and stuff as if it's the offseason (no vegas expansion trades until we get closer to the expansion draft, though you may talk about those trades). You may ask for a team, and i will give you that team if it isn't already taken. My favourite teams are the Rangers and Islanders tied, so i'll be the Islanders. Each person may only be the GM of one team.
Here is the list of GMs (i will update it when someone claims a team):

So is Philly allowed to trade back for Jake Voracek at 50% retained? Because he's been traded to multiple teams since being originally dealt so I'm not sure if this works?

As long as you didn't retain the money/he wasn't an expansion pick then yes you can get Voracek back

Ok, I need to gain some perspective on a few things. Have we ever come up with a way to actually win the GM game? Another thing I have to ask is, what is the current status of doing a GM game V2?

I have been doing some thinking about UFA's as it pertains to the game. I believe we should not be able to sign players whether they are UFAs or RFAs. The signings should reflect IRL salary and the team which they ultimately sign with.

v2 isn't the topic of discussion atm. there will be a time and place for that, but the GM Game needs to get its ducks in a row first.

Yeah, but this all a part of it. If you don't know how to win this game, then how do you know how to build your team?

Beta (this version) will not have a "formulated winner". V2, in which the teams are most likely going to be restarted, will have a "formulated winner"

There really can't be a true winner. The gm of the year in the NHL is rarely the guy who wins the Stanley cup. It's all relative to where you start, and what you're trying to achieve
