Hey guys. I know a lot of us took over teams that are in "shambles" so to speak. With that being said, I've had to create players due to rosters being too small (not enough rated players) or injuries. This creates work for me but I can't hold the new GM responsible, as most of us inherited the team. With that being said, I will not create players for a team that trades away it's ranked players and then forces their roster to be smaller and does not acquire a rated player back. While we don't have specific rules, I know Toronto and myself, have made it clear you must have at least 1 rated goalie on your team in order for us to sim, that does not mean I create a player off your prospect page. You also need to have a certain amount of F/D for me to sim, but it is tougher to enforce that given the state of some teams that were inherited. However, goalies are a different story and all teams MUST have 1 rated goalie in order for a sim to occur. I will put this in the official rules, but thought it was understood as I know I have said it as did Toronto when he was simming.

Indeed. Especially if you do not change that goalie out when hes tired. The simulator will not put him as back up if he his condition is really low and we can't sim if there are not enough goalies to play. I know I just repeated what he said. But it is a huge pain in the butt to have to do that every other sim.

Until you have simmed, other GM's just don't understand all the little nuances/bugs that come with the sim.

Rule clarification question, since our ratings and salaries are based on the previous season if a player retires does he become ineligible after that next season is over? For example a player has a salary and points this season but retires this offseason, is he still eligible to play 2014-2015 before he is 'retired' here?

I thought we could use the player for the next season after they retire.
Example:
Say Selanne retires this off season.
The team that owns him can use him for our upcoming season. He'll get a rating based on his 13-14 stats and will be playable for our season based off of the 13-14 stats.
When our 14-15 season starts he will be removed because that's when he retired in real life.

Yes, that's the most fair method but I just remember years ago it wasn't like that, it very well may have changed I just don't know.
The 'Praline' rules are a little outdated.

I thought once the player retired in real life, he was retired in GMHL Yep I believe the reasoning was that in real life teams don't have the option of trading a player knowing that he only has one year left and that it should be a surprise in our league the same as the NHL.

This is one those things where I don't believe a rule was ever actually put in place, to my knowledge. We can make it an official rule but really don't think it's fair to implement until next season. I do believe we have used the "rule" of when a player retires in real life, then you lose him in the GMHL. I think the exception we made was if an NHL player retired after our trade deadline, then the GMHL team could keep him for remainder of season But any player that retired before GMHL trade deadline, would be taken off of roster. I may not recall correctly but I believe that was how it was set up.

Since this is how retired players were handled in the past, I am going to implement the rule and put it in official rules, so I have had to drop some players from teams. So the rule is any player who retires from the NHL prior to our trade deadline will be released from their GMHL team. If the player retires post GMHL trade deadline, the player can remain on roster for duration of season and playoffs.

Yes that's how I remembered it, part of my question was is this the best method since his current status in our league is technically last seasons status anyway. Some player breaks the scoring record and wins the cup and then decides to go out on top, that team in our league never gets to realize that success because of this rule. My common sense would tell me if the rating is based on last season and the salary is based on last season then the retired status should occur one year to the date the player retired.
