Just as a note of interest. I was roaming around the CapGeek website and noticed that they now provide a fantasy cap calculator. You can put in the cap, the method of calculation and just the player name and it will look it up and put it into a team setup. Very slick. You can also save it as your own and they will register it and store it for you.
Are there any other sites like this? I missed the inaugural draft in our league (picked up an abandoned last place team) so I didn't have to pay attention to the cap as I was drafting.
Anyone have an easier way to do it?

yeah but the problem with that is its this years cap hit but this league is using the 2011-12 cap hit not the 2012-13 cap hit or that tool on that site would be great

I thought we were using the current contract status of the real NHL player? Pete, could you clarify? thanks.

For the 2012-13 season we will use real-life NHL salaries from 2011-12. You can find those salaries here: capgeek.com/archive/index.php?year_id=2011 Use the Cap Hit figure. Contract Length: For your initial roster you may sign 3 players to long-term contracts of 4 or 5 years. All other players contracts will be 1-3 years in length. When these contracts expire the player is an unrestricted free agent(UFA). After the initial rosters are set you may acquire more long-term contracts through trades. This is from the rules section. |

Pete, What about a multi-year contract? Are we using only the 2011-12 salary for the entire contract period. I didn't state my question properly. So that anyone that signs a new extension in the real NHL with new contractual amounts starting in 2012-13 has no bearing on the four year contract that I sign him for? I can sign him for the entire contract period based on the 2011-12 season cap hit.

What about young players on entry level deals. I could lock them up for 5 yrs at the entry level deal they have from NHL team.

That answers my question, Pete. In the rules it states that the 2012-2013 season will use the 2011-2012 salaries. I just wanted to make sure that the extended contracts still used the 2011-2012 salaries. Thanks for the clarification. Appreciated. |
