Islanders GM
Commissioner
Here are the 3 proposals that need to be decided

Proposal 1

To change the rookie limit from 9 games to 10 games to match what the NHL set as their limit. This will eliminate some issues involving prospects being sent back overseas or ohl and not being able to play for the year and as a result the GM losing a year off the contract.

Can vote either to keep the system the same or to change the limit to 10 games.


Proposal 2

The second issue deals with the impact rookie contracts have. The proposal is that once the rookie game is reached (currently 9 games) that the contract would begin as normal, but until the prospect is called up by us the GMs then the money would not count towards the cap. The years would still count whether you call him up or not, only the salary would not until the GM calls up the prospect.

This would give us some more control and keep unexpected rookies from putting us over the cap.

You can either vote to keep it the same or to accept this proposal.


Proposal 3

This deals with the undrafted prospects from the contraction teams. The options for this vote are.

a)Keep same, as soon as an undrafted prospect reaches limit go directly into free agency and can be bid on
b)Once undrafted prospect reaches limit they go into free agency but can only be signed for a single year deal
c)The undrafted players go into a league hold until they reach the rookie limit and then go into free agency at the start of the following season
d)That the players go into a league hold and those that reach the rookie limit go into free agency in the following season, plus have yearly contraction draft for the players that have not reached the limit. Draft specifics would be decided later if chosen.

Vote for one of the four options.

To vote post a reply with your votes for the proposals. You may change your vote anytime until the vote is decided. We need to have at least 12 GMs vote in order for the proposal to be completed.

I vote to change it to 10. I know a couple teams got screwed this year at the 9 game marks

I accept this proposal

I choose a)....but if d) is chosen, I would suggest that there is not a yearly contraction draft, but those prospects go into our next year's prospect draft.

Prop 1: Vote Yes to change
Prop 2: Vote Yes to change
Prop 3: Vote for option C as it is the most viable access that doesn't cause an additional change and a future draft. If a prospect went undrafted they should be made available as a FA the year following their passing 10 games of NHL service.

I would like to add a 4th prop to the league but it doesn't have to do with prospects so I will post it in a new topic.
