first, again, this should be at the penalty box - but I don't have an access
there from work. I apologize.
I would like to make a proposal to the rule changes - it is a simple one.
Currently, there is no provisions to release a player if you like.
There was no need so far. However, introduction of the team quality brings about
the need for answering such question.
Say team A would like to cut payroll by "removing" some of its expensive players.
One way to do so is through trade. I think that we need another way - simple
release. This need can arise in the following case:
- noone needs your player and it is impossible to trade him for an empty bag of pucks
The released player can then be made available
to other teams in order of their team quality. If not picked, he can reenter
the league through the draft. In other words this is a sort of a waiver system.
Please, respond to this if you like at the penalty box.
Also, send me a copy of your response, as I can't get to the box.
