(Will use calculator later)

John Gibson
Trevor Daley
Brock Nelson
Dustin Tokarski

Maxim Berezin
Marcel Noebels
Michael Curtis

sign prospects Blake Clarke (ASAP), and Hadyn Fleury to ELCs.

Trevor Daley - $1,675,000
Brock Nelson - $3,200,000

Maxim Berezin - $500,000
Marcel Noebels - $1,050,000
Michael Curtis - $1,850,000

Blake Clarke - $1,100,000
Haydn Fleury - $2,500,000

Heh, right. I kinda left this scattered around.

Daley and Nelson for 3 years.

Berezin and Noebels for whatever the maximum is.

Clarke and Fleury the standard 3 years.

John Gibson
Terms: 2 years
GM proposal: $3,650,000; comps: Pickard, Campbell, Mason
Agent proposal: $4,750,000; comps: Pickard

Gibson's got a very high POT (82) and CON (84) which every team covets. He's even got a decent LE (66) for a young goaltender, which becomes valuable in the playoffs. He's better than the comps Pickard and Campbell, as well as established guys like Varlamov and Bernier who make more. I'll side closer to the agent's number and award Gibson $4.45 million. You can accept/reject this award.

Dustin Tokarski
Terms: 3 years
GM proposal: $1,750,000; comps: Neuvirth, McCollum, Neuvirth, Stolarz, Allen, Dubnyk
Agent proposal: $950,000; comps: Hiller, Montoya

Agent advocated for more than the maximum pay cut. Luckily for Tokarski, the GM offered much higher. $1,750,000 awarded. You can accept/reject this award.

I'll accept Gibson.

Is it far too late to offer Bachman a contract?

Cats say "You don't have to go home but you can't stay here" to Tokarski, tell Bachman to "try, try, try to let it ride"

All my prospects over 20 earn themselves ELCs, default 3 year two-way etc

Henrik Samuelsson
Mikko Vainonen
Stanislav Horansky
Patrik Luza
Dario Simion
Dakota Mermis
Tim Bozon

I don't think any of them are eligible for slot bonuses.

ELCs offered.

Now, I know this is quite a bit late to be pleading my case here, but I didn't actually offer Curtis a term, and probably should have signalled that I wasn't all that interested in keeping him at that price, but now I'm in cap trouble (again) and looking carefully at this stuff so I don't trade my best player for garbage again.

Not sure what is being requested, but I'm guessing this is it do with Michael Curtis. He is in the AHL and making over the maximum right now.

Zaq, please state what you are asking for clearly. I will defer to Bub on whatever the final outcome is.

Curtis appears to be on his ELC, yes? If that's the case, then the AHL max salary doesn't apply, and he can stay on the farm w/o counting towards your EHEC salary cap.

His ELC ended this past summer. He's on a new deal now.

As I am ever the opportunist I now don't really care to investigate whether I wanted to retain Curtis or not (I do now,) though I'm wondering if there's a $$ limit to two-way clauses, and I'm also looking at my team and seeing a similar problem going into next off-season with Nik Prokhorkin.

Also a con-booster, and thus also making a boat-load of cash on his ELC, but not actually making much progress toward being an NHL regular. (Curtis played ~20 games for me last year, iirc)

Now maybe it is a bit closer to reality where a team does give up on a highly regarded prospect after their ELC (As an Avs fan I'm reminded of TJ Hensick and Ryan Stoa), and some other team deserves to take a shot at the guy (at what, minimum of 1,800,000?) if there's no room on his roster, but it might be nice to have the option to at least RP as a team that exercises patience with prospects. Or is that silly?

I'm just spitballing here.

Also, I can offer ELCs to guys as they turn 20 through the season, right?

Can you please clearly state what your are requesting?

We are still not sure what you are asking for.

Fine.

1) Is there a $ limit to contracts with two-way clauses?
2) Can I offer contracts to prospects during the season as they turn 20?
3) Does anyone else think there should be a clause to retain prospects whose ELCs were higher than the AHL max in the AHL until they've accrued a season of NHL experience, or has no one else ever brought that up?

1) We don't use two-way clauses anymore.
2) Yes. As long as you respect the 50 contract limit.
3) No, as far as I know, it's never been brought up.

I think second contracts for marginal players need to be re-worked (especially failed boosters), as well as the AHL maximum, but nothing's going to change for this season.

FLA offers a default ELC to Gustav Rydahl at the minimum, assigns him to SAR
