First and foremost, apologies for this mess. We've been trying to keep it under control, but when a group of people starts complaining, it eventually boils over into something overdramatic as we saw today. I hope everybody involved will take this opportunity to grow and learn to respect others especially when a person is going through a tough time in their current life.

Now regarding the resolutions; the whole reason this started was that there was a rule broken in a trade that was missed by the BOG which affected the scoring of the game. Once this was noted some people used it as an excuse to attack the BOG for being pickers and choosers regarding the rules, while we were discussing what to do. Earlier today we reached a resolution where a modified trade would stand so the scoring would not be drastically adjusted and everybody involved gets to keep their players.

Once again apologies for this disturbance, it has now been resolved in our game.

Thanks,
BOG

You asked we delivered...

Every GM must fill this survey out. The new UFA system that we are discussing is based on the ideas to give teams more incentive to go for the playoffs. The new system being talked about goes as following:

All teams get 1 UFA re-sign.
1st round teams - Extra 10% Bonus on UFA bidding, 1 extra FA bonus pt.
2nd Round teams - Extra 15% Bonus on UFA bidding, 2 extra FA bonus pts.
3rd Round teams - Extra 20% Bonus on UFA bidding, 3 extra FA bonus pts.
Stanley Cup teams - Extra UFA Signing, possible bonus, 4 extra FA bonus points.

If 66% of people vote to change the system we will change it.

Here is the link to the google form: <a href="https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScywZdz8LXfKK4nyKYU3OiFUFy7u8seEAakV13CP_VrcA8yMA/viewform?usp=sf_link" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">Google Form</a></div></div>

I think all of this is a must in theory.

•But the % bonus should only be added savings to the bids u win. Or in the case of the free re-signs you negotiate a fair contract, then get the % discount.
•The % are a little extreme, a $10mil player isn't taking a $2mil discount. So ease those back a little
•Same goes w the bonus pts, maybe do 1 for first 2 rounds, 2 for conference finals, 3 for teams in Stanley cup. With the winner still receiving an extra free re-sign(or they work as is if everyone is given more pts to start)

But the idea here is moving in the right direction

<strong>MINOR RULE CHANGE</strong>

Effective immediately the process that in-season free agents (ex. Erik Gustaffson, Tuukka Rask, etc.) are signed has been changed. Opposed to the old system where it was a waiver claim, teams will now put in a claim for an INFA in the claim thread if they still have a claim for that month. Then there will be a supervised BOG lottery draw between the teams that claimed said player. Every team will have a fair chance at the player and a win cannot be "taken away", if you win, you have to keep the player.

Example:
Connor McDavid does not sign before the season starts. During the season he signs a contract with the Montreal Canadiens irl. In-game teams will be able to put claims in for McDavid the week that he signed that contract. Edmonton, Montreal, and Toronto put in a claim for him before the deadline. A random draw happens between those 3 teams and the Oilers win. The Oilers would get McDavid at whatever contract he signs for irl.

This rule change is only for in-season UFA's and NOT normal waiver placements.
