Ongoing CBA Discussion Thread

[Lee]

With blessings from Mike, let's get this bitch updated.

What is out of date and what needs to be changed? What rules would you like to be discussed by the CC? Are there any rules that you would like clarified? Serious discussion only. This thread is meant for the betterment of the league and a better understanding of the rules moving forward.

When updating the CBA, I will include a change log so everything can be tracked.

I guess so. For some reason I thought we decided on the slow climb approach, but seems like it was 90 straight away we decided on.

Need an announcement for when free agent claims start. Normally we had it 24 hours after the waiver draft finished.

[Lee]

Also need an update on sliding contracts before roster submission. Also need a roster submission date.

[Lee]

Official roster numbers for the year would also be great.

Last year, that didn't start until after roster submission. I think the important date that needs to be announced is roster submission. I'm assuming we'll have the waiver draft completed at some point on Thursday.

The waiver draft ended on September 23rd...

Roster submission was September 25th...

Waivers started on September 29th (with the players waived at the roster submission) on September 29th...

Free agent claims began also on the 29th...

what's left to be determined on roster numbers?

I mean, aside from the fact the CC never formalized the addition of NHL minimums, which I guess is redundant anyway now that Shiv is no more a GM.

Yes, I guess at some point on Friday afternoon.

Just for the sake of it:

- After the Waiver draft, the unowned NHL-signed players will become available as free agents; however, after rosters submission, those still eligible for the 2015 Entry draft will join the pool of players reserved for it.

[kyuss]

Also need an update on sliding contracts before roster submission. Also need a roster submission date.

I think if other CC members won't show up with their opinions in the next couple of days, Mike will have to make his call on the current proposals so that we can move on.

[Mike]

I'm fine with doing contract slides, but I still think we need someone to curate a master list of those declared "sliders".

[Lee]

I volunteer.

Thanks Lee.
