Not exactly. I want to be able to acquire a player from another team and have them retain 50% of the salary and pay a draft pick to another team to retain another 50% so I get the player at 25% of their cap hit without having to give up one of my players. Teams have been doing this a lot the last few years when they don’t have the cap space.
I know this is not technically a 3 way trade, but it is the best way to implement it into the game.
I have to put my hat in the ring in favour of adding three team trades to NHL.
IrishOwl is correct, that there are no official 3-team trades done at the NHL office. It’s usually registered as two or three separate trades.
That said, teams negotiate them as three teams and come to terms based on what team A is sending team B and/or C, and so on. Since we can’t control more than one team in Franchise Mode, the easiest way to accomplish this would be to allow us to bring a third team in to negotiations.
