This way, there is some sort of differential between stars, players and the rest, just like the Calgary GM pointed out and everyone agreed." Made sense ? YES - cause this was done to lower trading & make gms active to give them something to gain by trading. You just gave everyone their first 2 lines back. Also differential in stars ? What stars, I didnt know teams had 2 lines of stars per game. I also didnt see everyone agree, only the REAL active ones, on anything.

First off, the farm system shouldnt have 70+ players in it.
HOLES ? Who the hell cares about holes (70+ players) on 4th lines !
When you have 70+ guys on the farm that means you have them on the pro roster so with 70+ players there are NO holes.
Also back to it not making sense. IT made perfect sense ! You were only too blind to see it. No one got stronger or weaker that way & the teams stayed the same.
OK - forget that way of thinking its too hard for some. Lets do it this way.
C- 90
rw - 90
lw - 90
d - 90
d - 90
g - 90
Thats your team average lets say , so really your team as well as the other 30 are capped off at 90+ by lowering the ratings & KEEPING THEM THAT WAY it gives each team improvement space as well as MORE trading cause some dont like having a 77 rated center on their first line. Well Trade for one ! The way it looks now to me is set up so certain teams didnt lose their bullshit ratings - IE: CAPITALS !
Say whatever you will & make me out to be the asshole here but I'm only trying to bring my 4 years experience as a commissioner to help you here rather than see the league up in dust in 2 to 4 more seasons.
