2015 Options

Commish Bub(NYR) · Post by **Commish Bub(NYR)** » Wed Jun 17, 2015 2:37 pm

Here's the list of players with team or player options remaining. You can reply to this thread as to whether you'll be accepting or rejecting a team option. Player options are, of course, out of your hands. Options won't be inputted for some time yet, so there's no rush to reply here. Just make sure you do so before summer ends. You can also change your mind at any point up to the end-of-summer rollover.

There is an issue in GM Office with there being way too many Team Options available when you click to the Roster Management tab. For instance, all of my unsigned prospects and all but one of my farm team players are shown as having a TO. None of them have a TO in the game.

Where is GMO reading this from? The stats file maybe?

The stats file is where it should be getting them from but I assume it's taking it from the players file.

Penguin · Post by **Penguin** » Sun Jun 28, 2015 12:14 pm

Accept Pouliot's TO option as well.

Commish Bub(NYR) · Post by **Commish Bub(NYR)** » Sun Jun 28, 2015 1:13 pm

Rangers will use options on Chipchura and Stoll, once his trade goes through.

Detroit

jamesredwings · Post by **jamesredwings** » Mon Jul 13, 2015 9:20 am

Also Adam Lowry has a team option in the AHL. Please accept if we are doing those

It might show up as him having one in GMO but those are looking at the wrong file for it. Looking in the game, he doesn't have one.

BLUESGM · Post by **BLUESGM** » Mon Jul 13, 2015 12:24 pm

ST LOUIS
Maxim Lapierre
Dmitry Kulikov
Robyn Regehr (PO)
Ondrej Palat

This needs to be changed up a bit. I no longer have Kulikov or Regher. Schwarz aslo has a team option. Just wanted to make sure this is updated. Cheers.

In my game he does. Isn't that what the "T" stands for?

jamesredwings · Post by **jamesredwings** » Mon Jul 13, 2015 1:35 pm

oops then forget it.... GMO said option but not EHM.

I guess I tried and failed

GMO shows a ton of TOs that don't exist in the game. Probably from when players were overwritten and those options weren't removed. We'll need to do a clean-up of the file to get rid of all the fake options, sometime soon. Sorry for the inconvenience. (For example: ALL of my unsigned prospects show that they have a TO, when viewed in GMO.)

Calgary.Flames · Post by **Calgary.Flames** » Mon Jul 13, 2015 2:44 pm

KULIKOV

*names in bold, huge, green letters are the players who's TO I will use.

CARON

*Pending trade approval.

Bruins_GM · Post by **Bruins_GM** » Thu Jul 16, 2015 8:30 am

Boston would like to use Alex Tanguay's TO after all, final answer.

If I need to accept Caron's TO for the trade to work, we'll do that too. I think it's Julien's problem, though.

Kadri, Summers, Josi, and Montoya
