1. A player may not be resiged as an RFA while on his NHl entry level deal, in that case he will wait until he signs a new deal in the NHL before his BRHL2 contract is renegotiated via arbitration, anew deal, or an RFA offer.
2. In the scenario where a player is up for his BRHL2 contract and the season begins before he has resigned in the NHL, he will sign a 1 year deal, based on his BRHL OV rating. (Only applicable to NHL players on their ELC)
3. To avoid teams locking all players up to longterm deals, they may only sign two RFA's per season to 5 and 4 year deals.
4. Teams may only pre-sign 4 players per team as RFA's during the season. The rest will negotiate in the offseason, to allow themselves to possibly be slotted with a new deal in the NHL.
5. Signing Bonuses can account for 10% of the annual salary, and is not charged against the cap.
6. RFA qualifying rights are a thing of the past, you automatically maintain the qualifying rights for your players. If you choose not to sign them based on their contract value on the spreadsheet, they will test the RFA waters as normal.
7. Stupidity/Laziness is no longer an excuse, if you are not using the average cap hit for the contract based on nhlscap.com you will be fined for submitting invalid RFA offers
8. Use the players age & OV as it shows on the rosters page.
9. RFA will open today. I will post in this thread as they sign. You should have a relatively quick turnaround.
10. I will be releasing a new calculator after our season is over to use going forward as it will have the OV function taken out.
