Trades Vetoes
You may post the trade, but if it receives at least 3 vetoes I will overlook the trade.
Buyouts/Waivers
Each GM will be allowed to pursue the buyout option on up to one player on his roster. To buyout a player, you must first put them on waivers. After 24 hours, if the player is not picked up, you can buy the player out, or you can bring them back through re-entry waivers, in hopes of another GM claiming the player, which would count only half of the players salary against the cap. Teams will be allowed to send 1 veteran down in the minors after this players clear waivers but there will be restrictions.
Here they are:
-Teams cannot send down a veteran they signed in this game.
You can continue to waive players if you want to but then you will either have to buy them out or keep them on your roster.
All buyouts must be final before the beginning of Free Agency.
NTCs and NMCs
Every GM's worst nightmare...beware! nhlscap.com has this list of players who fall in these categories. Trades involving a player with a NTC/NMC will be taken very seriously in this game. Each will be reviewed by the three league commissioners and a decision will be made. The rule will be if a player has a NTC or NMC than he will not go anywhere. Exceptions will be rare.
Teams that are looking to trade players on their roster who have a LNTC/NTC/NMC needs to have a talk with the Commisioner before anything happens. Get a list of teams your player would agree to be traded to and if the player has a NTC or NMC and that list is zero teams then so be it.
If you trade a player that has any of those clause without consulting prior to the trade, it could be automatically rejected by the commitee.
WAIVERS THREAD - In this game we will have a thread for waivers. A GM who wants to place a player on waivers will announce it in the main thread, then post it in the waivers thread. The time stamp of the post will determine when the 24 hours begins. If a team wants to place a claim on the player, they will indicate their interest by posting a request to claim in this thread. Waiver claims will always be determined by whatever the real NHL standings are at the time of the claim.
So for example: say the Boston GM waived Zdeno Chara. The Boston GM would post that he is waiving the player in the threads (both main thread and waivers thread). And say, 15 teams claimed him...but which one is furthest down the standings in the NHL right now? That team gets him.
Retirements/ LTIR - If you want one of your players to retire or be place on long term injury, this will also be handled by the trade committee. Same way we approve trades or not. You will need 2 approval to make it official.
If a player is placed on LTIR, they still count against the cap, but that team can spend over the actual cap in the amount of the player’s contract.
Example: Player A's cap hit is $2.5 million and they are placed on LTIR. He still counts to the cap, but the team's payroll can equal $58.5 million instead of the actual cap of $56 million.

Each GM is responsible for sending in their Top 30 rankings for the 1st round of the draft to him only. A team may opt to use the ISS's latest rankings instead. Also, if you make a trade involving a 2009 1st or 2nd round draft pick, make sure you send him a PM letting him know about it so he can update the draft order. Other than the three league commissioners, only _ are empowered to make a pick for a team that is not online, or officially be in charge of the draft.
Contract Extensions - Hollywood Hamels will handle any contract extensions. For a GM to sign a player on his roster to a contract extension, the player must not be a UFA-to-be. All offers are to be sent to him. Granted, keep in mind he will not be extending the contracts of players just to do it. It will have to be a good deal that makes sense for the player to sign, just as if it was dealing with a RFA or UFA.

There will be repurcussions for those of you who are not doing so, for example, Boston wants to make a trade or sign an UFA...well for that trade to go through that GM must have their roster updated. Now I'm not talking about every hour on the hour or anything like that, but if you're making a bunch of moves or signings you need to keep your teams post updated, period. Its part of your duties as a GM in this game.
