Eric has sent me the files and I will be uploading them shortly with a recent trade. However, I got some sawdust/insulation in my eyes today which makes it very difficult to sit in front of a computer screen. So even though most doctors don't like it I used some visine to lubricate but I will address all the fringin' position, rookie, jersey #, handedness, nationality, and vital information ALL over again in the short week/s.
As for a time line I guess we can go ahead and figure out when we want to hold UFA. What was our RFA deadline again? Was it the draft?

RFA deadline was decided to be 1 week before UFA.

I am open to helping with UFA as well.... We could aim to start say...August 1st? Also, with the RFA guide there was mention of an salary cap on individual players...with guys like Vince, Alfie, Nieds available this year...are we going to use this? Just throwing it out there. jh

No but in the NHL you can only bid up to a certain percentage of your current teams payroll for your highest paid player, which some of these guys are likely to be ,which might help alleviate some of the overbidding .

You can't use a system like that with a simulation.. there are no players deciding for themselves where they want to play

sb would be used to determine where they sign... makes the money come back into play more! while I agree it is probably not going to happen this way (I am very curious to see how much money teams are going to throw at Vince!) I thought I would just mention it as it was on the rfa page...

I don't necessarily disagree with you but you'd have to have some sort of warning so people could plan for certain changes like that ahead of time.

I won't have any cap room for Vinny.
How about winning percentage. Supposely, a team that win more games is likely closer to the cup. Just a thought.

The only fair way in FHL is who is willing to pay the most.
The only thing I would like to see which I suggested in the past is that teams who offer RFA aged UFAs such as Vinny contracts have to offer at least a 3-year deal. I know some teams strategy in the past was a one year deal and then re-sign after one year where there would be no signing bonus and you can qualify a guy at less than 100% and potentially have him for less money after he is "won" in UFA.

Personally, I don't think any UFA with an OV over 75 should sign a one year contract if anyone else offers a two year deal.

To build on what George said, it would seem to me that it would also be fair to offer a bonus in contract value to the years offered. For example, a 1 year deal would have no bonus, but a 2 year deal might have a 150k bonus so that a 1 year 6 million dollar deal is worth 6 million while a 2 year 6 million dollar deal is worth 6.125 million.
Length of the contract should count for something IMO because if offers the player more stability and poses more risk to the GM which IMO should be worth something.
