Proposal #4
This Proposal would replace Rule 35, which has been badly abused:
Such that if a GM has a catastrophic injury (such as "week to week") which is verifiable by Online sources, like NHL.com, to ANY roster player, such as a FP, FA, RFA or a previously promoted prospect, that GM can employ this Injury Protection WITHOUT penalty, in order to fill that player's spot, with a prospect of their own.
However, a GM can only have a limit of two (2) players under protection at a time, maximum, AND MUST return the injured player back to the roster upon their return to health, as defined by that player's return to play in a game. Their prospect then return to their unpromoted status again.
IF said prospect is out-performing the injured player and the GM wants to keep him on his roster, he MUST, promote said prospect and try and trade or waive the previously injured player (or another player at that position). The Obvious exception here is with the return of an injured FP, as they can not be waived.
Thank you,
Bob

I'd have to vote No as the uncertainty around defining injury and return to health are too hard to pin down. The only place I can see this of use is FPs as they can't be waived or let go otherwise. Prefer omnibus solution
vote YES -- Dan, I agree with you and Darrell though that any uncertainty as to injury status would need to be clarified
IF this was only for FPs I would vote yes. Maybe some combination of 1 and 4 would work.
Better injury definition but only for FPs
Thee Shadow votes YES
Uncertain what Rob voted as left a comment
No
Personal Vendetta vote No
Templar votes NO.
Eliminate Rule 35, and replace with a rule introducing Unlimited Prospect promotion / demotion, with guidelines outlining duration, and or number of times this can occur with individual Prospects.
Better use of Prospects needs to occur. We are simply carrying extra players that we do not make full use of. This would offset elimination of WD2, and open up Prospect usage, and trading since these player instantly carry more value with elimination of WD2, and IR rule 35.
Brian for Bob:
Results: 4 yes, 6 No, 1 Abstain, 1 quitter = 4/12
