Thread: What do you want your team(s) to do?

Do you think it's possible Fitz don't bring back Bratt?

To me, i tend to think Bratt will be traded

If you use the compare contract tool with Bratt's 1 year contrat, top comparable results are:
Fiala
Reinhart
Laine
Johansson
Puljujarvi
Bertuzzi
Burakovsky

ALL of those players were eventually traded by the GM that offered them 1 year deal except Laine at CLB.

It might show a lack of trust in the player by the GM, enough not to go long term with them

After a bad playoff run by Bratt, the trust of Fitz in Bratt could be even lower

What do you think Fitz will do?

Thread: Is the IIHF too soft?
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>IconicHawk</b></div><div>I ask this question because of a hit by Adam Fantilli vs Norway at the worlds

In the latter part of the second period, the puck is in Canada’s zone when Fantilli hits Norwegian defensemen Christian Kåsastul and Kåsastul is clearly shaken up and has blood coming out of his face, which indicates he was hit somewhere in the head, but everything else about the hit was completely legal, Fantilli never left his feet and stick was on the ice and puck was with them when the contact was made

In the end Fantilli got 5 and a game misconduct, which in the nhl probably doesn’t even get a penalty in the NHL because the IIHF has different rules to hits which makes me wonder

Is the IIHF soft?</div></div>

"The hit was illegal, but everything else was legal. Is the IIHF soft?"

Thread: Cap Errors Megathread
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>NHLfan10506</b></div><div>There are a handful of players now playing NCAA hockey whose expiry rights are still listed as if they were Junior or European players

1. <a href="https://www.capfriendly.com/players/aku-koskenvuo">Aku Koskenvuo</a> (VAN) just finished his freshman year at Harvard
2. <a href="https://www.capfriendly.com/players/samu-salminen">Samu Salminen</a> (NJD) just finished his first season at UConn (played one game in beginning of year for Jokerit while Visa issues were worked out)
3. <a href="https://www.capfriendly.com/players/oskar-jellvik">Oskar Jellvik</a> (BOS) just finished his freshman year at Boston College
4. <a href="https://www.capfriendly.com/players/viktor-hurtig">Viktor Hurtig</a> (NJD) just finished his first year at Michigan State
5. <a href="https://www.capfriendly.com/players/philip-svedeback">Philip Svedeback</a> (BOS) just finished his first year at Providence College


Also, there are two players with 8/15/23 expiry rights that have committed to new schools for 5th years (expiry rights would move to 8/15/24)

1. Liam Gorman (PIT)* - going to UMass
2. Patrick Moynihan (NJD) - going to Notre Dame

There are five others with 8/15/23 expiry rights who have placed their names in transfer portal, but have not committed anywhere yet (might move to 8/15/24)

1. Riley Hughes (NYR)
2. Jack Malone (VAN)*
3. Jared Moe (WPG)
4. Josh Nodler (CGY)
5. Marshall Warren (MIN)

* Note, Ivy leagues don't allow 5th year (also keep eye on John Farinacci, Mitchell Gibson and Austin Wong)</div></div>

I believe Colorado still owns rights to <a href="https://www.capfriendly.com/players/tyler-weiss">Tyler Weiss</a> who returned for fifth year this past season. CF shows 8/15/2022 expiry, where they should have been 8/15/2023.

NCAA fifth years (all Seniors going for fifth year at current school...so rights push out to 8/15/2024)

1. Case McCarthy (NJD): Boston University
2. Anthony Romano (ARI): Clarkson
3. Dustyn McFaul (BOS): Clarkson

NCAA transfers (all Seniors going for fifth year at new school...so rights push out to 8/15/2024)

1. Josh Nodler (CGY): from Massachusetts to Bowling Green
2. Eric Ciccolini (NYR): from Michigan to Clarkson
3. Marshall Warren (MIN): from Boston College to Michigan
4. Riley Hughes (NYR): from Northeastern to Ohio State
5. Ethan Phillips (DET): from Boston University to Western Michigan
6. Jack Perbix (ANA): from Western Michigan to Northern Michigan

Players with 8/15/2023 expiry that are still in transfer portal

1. Jared Moe (WPG): Wisconsin
2. Jack Malone (VAN): Cornell
3. Arvid Henrikson (MTL): Lake Superior

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Bflo_Soldier</b></div><div>Thanks. This is great!
Is Weiss' rights still owned by Colorado? I know he's tied to them on Capfriendly but I've seen some articles from earlier the start of the year talking about him as a college free agent (maybe it was known or assumed he wouldn't be signing with the Avs).
Others not listed that I'm unsure of their status: Thiessen (VAN), Demin (CHI), Adams (DET), McCarthy (NJD), Romano (ARI), McFaul (BOS), Moe (WPG), Loheit (OTT).</div></div>

CapFriendly had his rights expiring 8/15/2022, but has recently been corrected (see <a href="https://www.capfriendly.com/forums/thread/22/12">recent discussion on this thread</a>). Weiss returned for his fifth year of eligibility, so his rights are still owned until August.

A few of those names are staying for 5th year

Jared Moe -- in transfer portal...has said he will play another year, just don't know where
Case McCarthy -- likely to return to BU for 5th year
Anthony Romano -- 5th year
Dustyn McFaul -- 5th year
Matthew Thiessen -- 5th year
Luke Loheit (OTT) -- 5th year

Again, see the link above for many of details for each/
