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):
Anaheim Ducks - TrueNorth https://www.capfriendly.com/armchair-gm/team/345664

Meaning, do I get the players that Vegas drafts, even though they wont have the same picks as me, or will I just be able to take whatever player is there


Yes. And we're doing the entry draft where we do at least 2 rounds and we pick the players ourselves. Not sure how many we are doing.

My Vancouver Canucks offseason plans;

Horvat will be getting a long term deal, either 7 or 8 years. 6 mill is an overpayment right now but I think it's a realistic cap hit on such a long term for a 21 year old who's taken over the top line C role.

Other RFA signings;
Tryamkin -- 3 years at 2 million
Cramarossa -- 1 year at 800,000
Reid Boucher -- 1 year at 800,000
Chaput -- 2 years at 800,000
Brendan Gaunce -- 2 years at 900,000
E. Gudbranson -- 3 years at 3.5 million

Pretty much anybody will be available in a trade depending on the return, but these are the guys I'll be actively looking to move;
Eriksson
Gudbranson
Tanev
Sutter

PROTECTING IN EXPANSION
7 Forwards; Sedin, Sedin, Eriksson, Horvat, Baertschi, Granlund, Gaunce
3 Dmen; Tanev, Edler, Gudbranson
1 Goalie; Markstrom

Uncle Rico what's the price on Duchene?


Quoting: rangersandislesfan
Colorado, i'm interested in Duchene. Do you have a reasonable offer for Duchene (AKA: not what Sakic actually wants)?


I'm going to post wants/needs a little later, so you might be able to make an offer out of that. I might not get a Duchene deal done quickly. My roster is pretty sparse right now and I'd prefer to make a couple minor moves to narrow down what I could move Duchene for.

Delving into my RFA's currently.

Is there any way we could have a spot identical to armchair GM, but only for the GM game?

And how do we go about signing UFA players at the end of every year? Do we look at how many GM teams want to sign the UFA and randomize it to see who gets the rights to sign that player?

I think we're playing where whoever offers the most money gets the player. also, i think me and everyone else can agree on the length of a contract for a player, and then teams offer as much money as they want.

Yes, but what I meant was to have an identical spot for posting JUST GM teams.

It would be similar to skill level but probably just a lateral trade.

Or -which is the most likeliest scenario- a big package.

I think you mean at the top of the page? But that's highly unlikely.

If you go to forums, and look under "Armchair GM", we already have it setup.

I mean, I'm not looking for anything specifically as of right now. If you come to me with a trade then I will see what's good.

Should we be in 2016-17 or 2017-18?

Can we make any signings and/or sign our own RFAs/UFAs if we are in 2017-18?

with the GM Game teams moved to a separate location, it seems like we could post trade offers on the team page itself.

RFAs, yes, but UFAs, only if everyone definitely agrees. And for RFA signings, i will have to agree and let one or two other people agree as well. Also, 2017-18 probably.
