Tigs

As long as they are between the years of 18-20 you can slide them. Doesn’t matter what year of the contract.

Yes, that is correct. I will enter these contracts later today as well as the Comrie, Nurse, and Morrissey contracts. If there are any others that need updating please let me know. Thanks.

September 30th Midnight is the cutoff.

Announcement: We have decided to amend the rule regarding ELC contracts to include players who are 20 years old. This means any player who has signed an ELC between the ages of 18-20 is eligible to have their contract slide. You have all of September to submit any players you would like to slide this year.

Just wrapping up a couple of negotiations, but will start posting some initial signings shortly!

@Master Mind is this enough to have Zetterberg's retention removed? https://twitter.com/DetroitRedWings/status/1040607853634117632

Have heard from over 50% of the league, but just a reminder that we would like to see offers for the first wave in by midnight tonight! So roughly 9 hours 45 minutes @Canuck Surfer

He'll get more playing time, so I guess that's something? Lol.

One of these is not like the other.

Yes to both of these questions.

Morning all. I have received offers from a lot of teams, but just a reminder that we would like to have all the offers in by Tomorrow @ Midnight so that we can start negotiating/posting signings Friday/Saturday and then start up the cycle again. Thanks.

That is correct.

Yes, 5 players for the first two waves. Unlimited for the last wave. You do have a 50 contract max however.

Just a reminder that FA wave 1 is now open.

Rosters are as updated as possible. Currently needing rosters from the following teams: Detroit Edmonton Los Angeles Montreal New Jersey New York Ottawa St. Louis Vegas Please note that you do not need full rosters, these are just in case you want to have a player in the minors that you don't want to go through waivers later on. A roster update will be required shortly before season start so that pickup can be entered properly.

Hey all, just a quick update here. I am going to be gone Thursday evening-Saturday evening for an unexpected family situation that came up. @Patrick Kane is also out of internet range after 8 tonight. This means that I will be updating all the rosters posted by tonight and after that any remaining rosters that are posted by Thursday @ 11:59 will be updated on Saturday. Any rosters that are not posted or are posted after Thursday @ 11:59 are up to the league exec team to choose what happens with your players. FREE AGENCY: FA will open on Saturday, September 7th. Please PM both @Patrick Kane and myself with your offers. You are not allowed to sign any players that are eligible to be drafted in this years draft. For us that means all players who are born between 1999-2001. Please note that we expect a brief description on how each player will fit into your plans. Also, some players may accept deals that are cheaper in value or term depending on a specific team's needs. It's worth remembering that some players play for location, team make-up, and or long term plans - not just for money (*cough* Tavares). We will be accepting offers for the first wave of free agents from Saturday, September 7th-Thursday, September 13th. Negotiating will happen throughout and although we will be slow to sign deals the sooner you get your offers in the better it will be for you. Friday, September 14th all signings will be officially posted. Saturday, September 15th we will repeat the cycle.

At this point in time the first wave is unlikely to open until the weekend, with each wave being roughly 7 days in length. As far as agents are concerned you can include both @Patrick Kane and myself for the time being. Should this change we will make an announcement to inform everyone.

Announcement(s): Thanks to @Patrick Kane 99% of all players are now entered into the http://www.ekleague.com website. A few exceptions being some of the skipped picks which we will manually be entering later on. Over the next few days we will be going through each team's posted roster and making sure the appropriate players are in the NHL/Minors as requested. In regards to Free Agency, we have decided to do 3 waves of signings. The first 2 waves you will be limited to making only 5 offers and the last wave you will be able to offer for as many players as you wish. This forces you to prioritize the players you feel are necessary for your team during the first two waves and then fill any holes in during the last wave should you not be able to get the players you wished to sign during the first two. The deadline for when we want to see FA wrapped up is September 30th in order for us to have enough time to finalize opening night rosters and have everything entered into Pickup. As always if you have any questions feel free to let me know and we will do our best to be as fair and accommodating as possible with everyone.

Announcement: With the draft concluding there are a few things regarding the timeline in the next month that I would like to note. For any skipped picks, the deadline to make them up will be Monday, September 3rd at 11:59 PM PST. Failure to make up picks by the deadline will result in you forfeiting your right to make these selections and in general will be frowned upon by the executive team. Currently we have the following GM's with picks to make up: @Spoderman 5 Picks @wallstreetamigo // @*VaNcOuVeRCaNuCkS* 4 Picks @Sergei Bobrovsky 1 Pick @Boeserific 1 Pick @Squeak 1 Pick @maroe // @Watermelons 1 Pick Following this, we ask that all teams post an official roster of their NHL team and players in the minors. The reason for this is to firstly make sure that we have all the players in the right section on the website. Secondly, players will require waivers following the roster update. Please see our CBA for details regarding waivers. The deadline to post rosters will be Thursday, September 6th at 11:59 PST. Failure to post your roster will result in the executive team assigning what we feel is an appropriate NHL team, and may not be exactly what you would want yourself. CBA: (https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Vu5wGiCZEXGEAVTGfuInkPqhq7noA1D5QE_sbZHaHXM/edit?usp=sharing) Lastly, we plan to start our "post-draft Free Agency" sometime between September 7th-8th. The exact details of Free Agency will follow. However, we are likely going to do multiple waves of signings (3-4 waves), in which you will be limited in the number of players you can submit offers to per wave (likely 5 players). This will force you to prioritize which players you choose to sign. Please note that all 2019 draft eligible players are not able to be signed. Thanks all for a fantastic draft! @Blue Jay 22 @Primal Optimist @Dion Phaneuf @gmen81 @BM24 @Patrick Kane @Gally // @Miroki @Tylez @Drouin @canucklax @Ilya Kovalchuk. @Canuck Surfer @kj29 @Monty // @D-Money @Mike Vanderhoek @maroe // @Watermelons @Zach Parise @Sergei Bobrovsky @Spoderman @Boeserific @RL. // @Tony Romo @OurTimeToShine // @Caboose @_arby_18 @wallstreetamigo // @*VaNcOuVeRCaNuCkS* @Master Mind @Art Vandelay @Jaku @Nail // @JE14 @Squeak @inane

Lol, I hear that.
