So the Olli Jokinen rule will allow teams 1 ONE 1 ONE 1 UNO position changes of a FORWARD's position on the top 2 lines. Giving a GM the ability, "in a pinch" to move around their lineup to put more quality on their top 2 lines without having to refer to other sources.

You can't trade your Rule. (can't believe I have to even mention that)
You don't have to use it.
You don't have to use it now.
You only get 1.
You can switch back your player to his "sourced" position at any time, but once you use the rule it's gone (Much like the Captiancy and Tags).
You have free reign to move a forward to a specific position on the top 2 lines.
Your position change must keep the player on the top 2 lines.

I believe that's about it. Feel free to ask any questions, I'll try to answer them, considering how busy I am.

I would ask of you not to bring up the literal difference between this rule and how Jokinen actually became a Winger or I swear to god I'm going to wal-mart and buying a gun. :)

You can post your selections here in this thread.



P.S. Buffalo used it's rule if they chose to play Jokinen at Wing.


P.S.S. Something I can't believe I never thought of, but a new addition to position sources this year will be The Hockey News depth chart index. Located near the back of each weekly issue (I have a subscription). I will accept a position chance as long as its within a month of that publication.


Let the bitching commence:
