All teams have a minimum of 24 and a maximum of 37 skaters and 2 or 3 goalies. 4. All GM`s have to name 18 skaters and 2 goalies to the matches as the format looks below: Even strenght lines lw c rw lw c rw lw c rw lw c rw ld rd ld rd ld rd Power play lines lw c rw ld rd lw c rw ld rd lw c ld rd lw c ld rd Penalty killing lines lw c ld rd lw c ld rd c ld rd c ld rd Extra attackers x x Goalies s b Lines must be sent at the beginning of the season and when injuries or trades occur. 5. Without lines i will let the program to make ones for the team. 6. Trade will be official when both of the 2 GM`s confirm the deal with an e-mail to the commish. Trade can include players, money and draft picks. I will check all trades firmly and silly trades will be canceled (ie: Lindros FOR Harkins, etc) 7. Free agency and salaries Money is tradeble to increase or decrise the salary cap. Every player have to sign a contract with his team.
