Are the coaches who are available in the AHL coaches draft the one ones who are listed under the "coaches" link in the new page? http://www.brhlhockey.com/brhl2/coaches.php
Are the coaches that are left on the page able to be picked now that the AHL draft is done. For a slacker team that did not send in a list can I go in and offer a contract to one of them?
Now if I got fined for not sending in a list and was still given a coach anyways it seems like I would be getting dinged twice if I have to buy him out or I should not have been given a coach. I should have been just able to pick from what ever was left after the draft was over. Or if I was given a coach I did not want then I should not have been fined, my fine would have been to have to buy him out to get someone else.
I am getting hit twice for the same infraction.

Bryce I talked to you about this previously and think I'm a fairly active GM. Yes we all seen the date for the AHL coaches draft but I asked a couple of GM's on June 9th (the day the coaches draft was suppose to happen) if they heard anything about it or knew what was going on. I should have just sent a msg directly to you obviously and then later that night a e-mail was sent out and 1 day later in the AM we are expected to have a list in? I went like 36 hours without being on-line and missed the whole thing kind of extreme is it not?
Fine I got fined 1 M dollars and can accept that but now getting double dinged as I'd like to change my coach too I don't see how that's fair?

Why not just let GMs buyout their coaches with only their first year? granted some may have 4 years of contract, but forcing them to pay differing amounts is a bit of a croc...
See that is why this league is great, I started to blast out a response this afternoon to let everyone know I was not happy but it was worked out and everything was worked out.
Canes fire their AHL coach never heard of the guy and will have a new one in place by dinner tomorrow.
