Probably the wrong forum but what the heck
Can a GM be traded in the NHL?
Be kind

No, a GM can't be traded. The closest the NHL got to a market for executives was the draft pick compensation that teams were given when they lost an executive. This policy was in place for less than a year in 2015, but was scrapped when teams were upset about giving up picks for executives that were already fired.

Is this actually somehow written in the rules? Or it is a gentleman agreement?

Meeting between NHL, Bill Peters 'likely to occur' - Sportsnet.ca

Friedman with some points (11/27 before Peters' resignation):

I don’t want to jump to any conclusions, but it should be noted that it does raise the possibility of league-mandated punishment in addition to anything Calgary does.

Article VI, Section 5 (j) of the NHL Constitution allows commissioner Gary Bettman to “expel or suspend (anyone) for a definite or indefinite period” who he has determined to be “guilty of conduct detrimental to the League or the game of hockey.”

There is also room for a fine of up to $1 million, and termination of employment. (Any suspension longer than two years can be appealed.)

Could be that the resignation has put a stop to commissioner/league sanctions. But in addition to the racial slur incident, now has come to light a physical altercation with a player, it may be that Peters won't ever coach in NHL again.

(Former mod reminding posters that BOH focuses on the procedures and business of hockey, not the outrage and schadenfreude of the situation. NHL Talk for the latter.)

Phil Esposito traded for Michel Bergeron in the 80’s but he was a coach.

Not exactly. If a team wanted to hire say Doug Armstrong for example and he wanted to join said team, the Blues would have to be compensated. Sort of in the same way a couple years ago when teams were demanding compensation for losing assistant coaches/GMs. In those cases it was usually a 3rd round pick but for a GM, and a successful one at that, it would be at least a 1st round pick. Its unlikely a team would let their GM hope over to another, but they would also risk pissing him off.

How is it I never knew that Bill Guerin went full Shooter McGavin look?

Not abuse related. But so many other things I can speculate why from philandering to stealing pencils ( or padding expense account).

More recent than older offense.

Hockey decision. Sounds like his last deal was $3mx3

31 Thoughts: Maple Leafs' fortunes will decide deadline approach - Sportsnet.ca

Friedman reports on two coaches who recently signed with new franchises, getting extensions (beyond what their contract with previous employer was).

Speaking of contracts, sources indicate that John Hynes received a one-year extension when hired in Nashville and Peter DeBoer two in Vegas. The former is now under contract through the 2021–22 season and the latter through 2022–23.

Is it true that players that get 160 NHL games get a 45K yearly pension from the NHL?

What exactly what would happen if a player only got 140 games? Just a lesser monetary value?

Just curious as Tangradi is sitting at 150 in Detriot's farm team

 

[SotasicA]

I thought the threshold was 400 games.

Information from year 2018 indicates that the player earn quarter of a year’s benefit for every 20 games credited and players who do not reach the maximum (10 full years), the benefit is prorated. (Google Society of Actuaries NHL pension stats).
