Trades Prague can't do, ranked in order of how "can't do this" they are

[diamond_ace 3,114]

So as many of you already know, the Prague Phantoms have several pending trades that are unable to be put through until the portal search feature is reset. The offseason is officially underway, thanks to Beaviss although Josh would have done it a few hours later, and the assumption was that once the portal was set to tick over into the offseason, the trades would be able to be put through. As it turns out, this is not the case. The trades can't be entered because in the trades section, we are unable to search through the assets of either the incoming team or the outgoing team to select the pieces that will be traded. This is apparently an issue that only Will can fix, not even Josh, so we wait for Will to come onto the site and fix said search feature. There are three trades that the Prague Phantoms are waiting to be able to do, and so I will rank them in order of how "can't do this" they are.

1. The big one

There is one massive trade that could change the entire fate of the franchise for the upcoming few seasons, and it's one that has been discussed and finalized between two non-playoff teams since the beginning of the playoffs. As the finals are now behind us, that means this trade has been waiting for quite some time to be put through, and both teams involved have started making plans for their rosters after the trade. The two teams seem to be going in different directions at the moment, one about to improve significantly and the other entering a quick rebuild wherein their younger players will begin to feature more heavily as they develop. Unfortunately, neither team is able to enter the trade into the portal, nor accept said trade, because the search feature needs to be reset.

2. The medium one

This is a trade that I don't think many people know about at all, nowhere near as many as the first trade especially - I know on my end, it's only the people in the "team only" section of the Prague discord. The pieces involved in this deal are not as big as the pieces involved in the deal mentioned earlier, hence being the medium one, but it is a good trade, partially because of existing relationships within the team already. The result of this trade will be that one position area of the team will be pretty well finalized for the long haul, but is it Prague who will acquire, or the other team involved in the trade? Unfortunately, you'll have to wait, because neither team is able to enter the trade into the portal, nor accept said trade, because the search feature needs to be reset.

3. The rights trade

This is the most minor of the three deals by a good margin. A player that will leave either Prague or the team Prague was in talks with in free agency is involved in this deal, and it's for the opportunity to trade the rights to said player either to or from Prague so that the receiving team (whichever side that is) can sell said player on said team before free agency opens. Fortunately, the outgoing team has already permitted the incoming team to talk to the player, so that side is set. Unfortunately, the pieces coming to the outgoing team in return can't be given to said team, because neither team is able to enter the trade into the portal, nor accept said trade, because the search feature needs to be reset.

EDIT: while writing this article, the search feature was fixed and these can go through. Still claiming the article though
