It also mentions trading players in order to have money to sign RFA’s which I have not seen happen for the last couple of years, some of the AI team's best players still sit out the entire year due to not having sufficient cap space to sign them.
I think that’s an issue because no team still wants to make those trades for bad contracts. IMO the best way around that would be to make the trade value for bad contract players a negative value. Then we can finally use our cap space to help with rebuilding by getting a second or third round pick for agreeing to take someone like Matt Murray.
My thoughts for contract fix:
Gm builds relationships with players and coaches. The results being they are more willing to sign for less money to be part of the team.
Bonuses for players and coaches. An example would be player contract offer 5 million a year and another 750k in Bonuses for reaching goals like 50 goal season or 100 point season or for goalies .910 save % or 10 shutouts. Coaches get 100k for making playoffs or 250 for winning cup.
Top players could also earn extra money thru team sponsors. Sponsors are already in the game, just look at the boards.
Just some thoughts on it.
