Minor Roster Fixes Applied, Buyout Rule change for 2014-15, Free Agency Notes,

Hi Everyone

I just put up an output for your rosters on the site to clean up some errors that were found.

Bullet points:

  • To maintain full compatiblity, update your STHS client.
  • I just decided that we will do more to mimic NHL buy outs.  Buy outs will hit your cap starting the 2014-15 season.  Old rules still in effect for 2013-14 season.  More details later.
  • Use the latest FA tool dated 2013-08-12
  • 35 Player Minimum Tracker is posted
  • Free Agents sheet is updated (It will change a lot after GMs lock up their core, so don't get too excited yet :) RFA tag not accurate yet)
  • In case you forgot, all RFA must be submitted a qualifying offer in order for you to keep their rights on your team.  The Qualifying offer column in the signing tool is there just to tell me if you submitted a proper qualifying offer to your RFA so that I don't remove him from your team.
    • To retain RFA status, the team the player last played with MUST offer a qualifying offer ("QO")
      Players earning under $660,000 must be offered at least 110% of their prior year's salary to qualify as a QO.
    • Players earning from $660,000 to $1 million must be offered at least 105% of their prior year's salary to qualify as a QO.
    • Players earning over $1 million must be offered at least 100% of of their prior year's salary to qualify as a QO.

Now get on figuring out who your core should be :)
