Sure you do, but it never happened and you're just doing this because you like F50Marco or whatever. What happened in that thread is irrelevant and I thought he was wrong, don't hold that against me, I want whats best for this league.</div></div>

This has nothing to with anyone except you and me, the comment is on my old thread, comment number 505, guess what, you made the comment.

I don't care if things have changed due to acqiring new players or expansion issues, what this is about is you telling me that Vatrano is now worth more than Rask is and it has nothing to do with the fact that Vatrano is expansion exempt.

Then you throw BreKel under the bus for something you know and I know he didn't do, the name calling is repetitive and undeserving in almost all cases, you are the most immature GM in the game, and when I say immature, it's not name calling, it's the truth plain and simple, I think you are on thin ice with a lot of GM's, Carolina's ice just happened to crack now.</div></div>

I didn't throw BreKel under the bus. How is saying he might have said it throwing him under the bus. Drama man, you're all about it. Great work with this.. So if i get this right, if i say something long ago, and then things change, it's not fair of me to change the deal? Your logic is flawless and you're totally understanding me when I said Vatrano &gt; Rask because Rask isn't expansion exempt so we lose him, when we could just keep Vatrano.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>F50marco</b></div><div><div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>matt59</b></div><div>I've been thinking of this a little bit so here's a few suggestions I have. The ideas may be kind of raw so if we like the concept it'll still need to be refined.

Expansion: we make an inactivity cutoff for Nashville and Dallas on April 25th (original planned expansion date). If they're not on by then, they will need to be demoted. Instead of firing them, we appoint an interim gm who is currently an assistant and has the best records of frequent activity. If they return, the formerly inactive gm can serve as co-gm/ assistant. They will not be allowed to be full GM though since there needs to be a penalty for long term inactivity. Exceptions can be made if like in bMans case there was serious personal matters to deal with. In this case we just get a majority of GMs (maybe if we do the subcommittee a 4/7ths vote) to pardon the inactive GM and he will be allowed to resume being head GM. The interim will still serve as their assistant to ensure if they have to take a personal leave again, the assistant can swiftly step in and serve as interim.

If we do this, we can move expansion to may 1. This gives the interim GMs What I was thinking is we make a strictly expansion thread. Teams submit their final expansion protection lists on the expansion thread by May 1. Penalty for not submitting a list by noon EST May 1 can be a 2017 (or nearest year they have a first) first round pick to Vegas. Teams can submit their expansion lists as early as the 25th BUT ONCE A TEAM SUBMITS PROTECTION LIST THEIR ROSTER IS FROZEN UNTIL VEGAS MAKES ITS EXPANSION PICK OFFICIAL. Starting May 1, if Vegas has not already selected a player by trade, they will select players for expansion. They will make picks in order of who submitted expansion lists earliest. The last day expansion picks can be made can be like May 4th. This gives Vegas an ample yet reasonable amount of time to make all their picks that haven't been made yet. If Vegas has not selected a player by noon EST on May 4th, you are not obligated to give Vegas a player (I doubt this will happen, Vegas gm is very active, just wanted to include this just in case). All expansion rules set by the NHL in real life will apply to this game in terms of who can/ can't be picked or exposed/ protected. We can allow teams to send picks to Vegas in order to select or not select a certain player (or a pick to not select a certain group of players). Many teams want to do this now which I'm fine with. I know rangersislesfan has stated his opposition to this under the premise they might want to still move that player in another trade. I counter that if a team wants to commit a player to Vegas this early, and they miss out on moving him in a separate deal, tough luck. The gm already committed the player to Vegas thus that deal must be upheld. This encourages GMs to have freedom of choice but also keeps them honest in terms of accepting the consequences of making an early deal.
I have some other thoughts but don't want to make this post too long so I'll add those later.</div></div>

I like the idea for what to do with inactive GM's, matt. Think it makes perfect sense but can I ask why you feel having the expansion draft nearly 2 months before the real date is necessary? To be honest I haven't heard a good argument for it yet from anyone other then what I assume is that most of the GM's on here are too impatient and want things to happen now now now!

I'm not saying we should do the expansion draft the exact same day as the real thing. mayeb have it over the span of a week prior to the actual things. June 10th - 17th. I feel people are forgetting that the real playoffs are happening right now. The results of how players do and who wins the cup could change a lot of people's perspectives on guys. I strongly think making all these important dates months in advance is unwise if we want this game to be as accurate as possible.</div></div>

I think it'd be corny as hell to do the expansion draft at the actual time it happens. We're not going to be able to do the exact same thing that they do, so this just turns to fantasy nerd crap and is demeaned. I'd rather do this way before and then see how close we got to the real things. At the end of the day, I think real life stuff that happens &gt; this stuff on here. So why do them at the same time when real things would dominate this fake stuff?

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>F50marco</b></div><div><div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>rangersandislesfan</b></div><div>I wouldn't want to fire anyone except we might need to with the Expansion draft coming up soon. We'll see in the next few days. And i thought you all wanted to do the expansion draft now? Because Vegas keeps trying to make expansion picks already. And the unofficial trades are just this thing that i actually didn't create. It just means they are very close on a trade but it hasn't happened yet. To make a trade official, both GMs must agree.</div></div>

I don't think anyone wants to fire anyone. Its only brought up now because of the strict time frame we have to do things. If the Nashville Gm for example doesn't do anything through the expansion draft, entry draft and free agency then he really hasn't contributed anything to this game and has wasted what could of been someone else's job who is itching for the opportunity.

Once again so we're clear, the only reason making a decision on inactive GM's is somewhat important now is because key events in the game are coming up like the expansion draft, etc. if these special events were taking place during the actual time they will in real life, the inactive GM's would have a lot more time to come back on the site and start being active again.</div></div>
On this topic I say we wait until 2 days before the first action. I think it's the expansion draft, but if we wait until 2 days before it and then if someone doesn't show up by then we give an Assistant a Promotion. I've got a competent AGM, who could fill the role, so I don't know what the sense in panicking would be. We've got some time still and that person might come back, wait it out and then give the people who don't show up a boot and promote the people who have been here on the wait list.
