After a very productive Meeting of the leagues general manages the BuHL committee voted on several new initiatives for the forth coming BuHL 2003-04 season. The committee was able to reach decisions regarding many important new rules that will take effect when the puck drops on the new season. They are as follows:
1.
Back-up goalie/goalies must play at least 500 minutes (or combo there of if divided between two back-ups) during the course of the season
2.
Teams will name Captains and Alternates before the start of the season. At seasons end those selected as their teams representatives shall receive an increase in their EX and LD attributes. +5pts EX/LD for Captains and +2pts EX/LD for Alternates. These players may only accrue these points if they have been named prior to the season and finish the season with the team from which they have been named. Once traded players are exempt.
3.
In addition to our salary cap the BuHL is implementing a salary floor which is $ 25 million. Teams in violation of the salary floor will be subject to the same penalties incurred as a result of salary cap violations. Each violation, whether it be a cap or floor violation, shall result in the penalized team receiving stricter penalties for each subsequent cap infraction.
4.
A new cap penalty system will replace the current auction system. The system is as follows:
1.
a) Team goes over the cap - warning issued via message forum by whichever committee member catches it first. Incase it's a friday night and someone is gone over the weekend, internet problems, new nympho g/f, etc. Gms will have a 3 SIM grace to get under the cap.
2.
a) Next sim - 1st offence - Top player on the roster is suspended for 5 games. If team is still over the cap when player returns 2nd offence starts.
b)2nd offence - Top player 10 game suspension. One year off the contract off of the top RFA on the roster.
c)3rd offence: Top player, 20 game suspension. Top RFA's contract has to be renegotiated at the end of the season. Removal of GM season end bonuses, player points, re-rate challenges, ect ect
3. GM hearing conducted by the committee. this may result in teh dismissal of the GM
