WCFHL OFFSEASON INFORMATION

UPDATE
- The rosters have been updated. All unsigned players has been made holdouts.

- The ratings are now FINAL
- I may still have a few players to remove due to retirement. I reserve the right to do so.

- Article from Lawrence Bailey, the new LIGHTNING GM

WAIVER DRAFT
I was just reminded that I forgot about the Waiver-draft. We will have a waiver draft just prior to the regular season. For now you can read the rules discussion (and the rules) 
on the message board under rules discussions. I will post the final rules on this even as soon as I have time for it.  

TRADING ALLOWED
Trading is allowed now ... I have a sneaking suspicion that things will start with a BANG today. Enjoy yourselves gentlemen and woman : - )    

RE-SIGNING YOUR PLAYERS
You are now allowed to re-sign your players in accordance with the rules we agreed on last year. The guidelines can be found on the rules page. If you have Excel you will also find a spreadsheet that will help you calculate the new contracts with Signing bonii and all that ... if anybody cannot use this programme - send me an e-mail or look me up at ICQ and I will help you through the re-signing phase the best way I can.

Players who are not under contract does NOT count against your 53 million dollar salary cap, however if you cannot afford to sign a player he will remain a holdout (if 30 years or younger) or he will become an Unrestricted Free Agent (31 years or older) if he is still unsigned at the re-signing deadline (March 5th).       That should be all for now.         Bo Siemsen of Copenhagen
