Q: The NYR have two players currently on PTOs. Are they just considered UFAs in this game?

I think we can trust the BOE to do their job. No need to single out other users publicly, if the BOE has an issue with the trade let them deal with it, without our intervention.


I will single out other users when an absolute joke of a trade happens if I want to!


I think rnh have a bad season he a good 2 way player

You gave up a goalie who will be a starter very soon, one of the best 3rd liners in the game and a prospect that proved he could play in the big leagues in the playoffs for a 3rd liner who has name recognition plus you took on $4 mil in cap. I guess I should trade a bunch of good prospects for Yakupov because he was a #1 pick...

But rnh can be a good 2 c

Isn't it said in the rules that you shouldn't single out other GMs if you think their trades are terrible? You said you'd sign off on the rules of this game Dangles

Yes, any player that you wish to place on waivers, please do not bury them.

There is no limit to how many times a player can be traded, execept for NTC and NMC players.


Please clarify? If we want to put a player in the AHL without waivers, is that permitted?

If the are waivers exempt, then yes. As long as you have 20-23 on the roster at all times.

Anyone not waiver exempt (you can check by searching their names) has to stay out for now

Not just to Dangles, but speaking in general. I guess there isn't really a trade reporting process, but you didn't even give the BOE an opportunity. They are supposed to look over, evaluate, rate, and release GM's if they are not doing a good job. This is a new aspect for V2, but one that hasn't been given the time necessary to show an impact on the game. Perhaps a GM makes a bad trade and it is reflected in the power rankings. Perhaps a GM makes a couple of small errors, or one big error, and gets removed. Perhaps a trade is deemed too extreme for some reason and is reversed. (This should apply in both directions as well. Or at least be taken into account, if you were able to greatly improve your roster due to lopsidedness.)

If getting upset or throwing a tantrum is your first reaction to everything, well ... I don't think I need to complete that thought.

Thanks. Just wanted to be sure everyone that isn't waiver exempt still had to pass through to reach the minors. smile

I was mainly just saying that because people are gonna start swapping roster players and it'll end up being like v1


i was really hoping we wouldn't get all the trading like we did in v1, but it hasn't turned out that way ...

Real life trades since this game started: 1
In-Game trades: 15

We've also seen players that were just acquired this offseason get traded multiple times.

Perspective is a little flawed. Keep in mind that these are basically off-season trades for us right now. Next month is when the trades will hopefully reduce in number.
We'll never end up with as few trades as in real life though. This is a game based around trading. Real life has other tools at their disposal to occupy their time. wink

Just my two cents... we shouldn't be making a bunch of rash trades like in V1. Trades should actively address needs and such. However it's each GMs job to optimize the moves they have to make the team better. There's zero reason to make very few trades just to not make trades especially if you're turning down deals that significantly improve your team. Doing that is just as bad of GMing as making too many deals.

This is the best day in GM Game history. Only Cap's return could rival it.

We have a vacant position in Florida.

DavidBooth has expressed interest in joining the game. There are no assistants in line. If he would like it, he can have it. Note that because there is no seniority at this moment, the first user to express interest in it may have it.
