Fire Tortorella 2,653 Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 It's not a future pick, he traded a present pick with a gentleman's agreement for their future selection. It's essentially the same thing. I didn't want to raise the point in this trade since it's not really a secret that every team does this, but what exactly is the point of that rule then?

Point of the rule is to avoid trading future selections several years in a row. What is wrong with a gentleman's agreement that they chose to make public? I fail to see a significant issue here.

What is wrong with a gentleman's agreement that they chose to make public? I fail to see a significant issue here. What is the difference between straight up trading say your S40 1st round pick and S41 2nd round pick in a deal in S38 or trading two 3rds in S38 and then swapping those 3rds for the pics mentioned earlier? And again, I don't have a problem with this deal, since like I said, everyone does it, but I don't get why we have that rule in place then.

Absolutely nothing, but one is abiding by the trading rules, while the other is not. We are going to formulate a new rule that negates all gentleman agreements? It happens several times per season. The rule is perfectly fine as placed currently from my perspective. Link to comment https://vhlforum.com/topic/9053-seaque-s38/#findComment-83103 Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's exactly my point. Both cases have the same end result, so why do teams have to go through this little dance then? Might as well just let teams trade any future pick instead of the 2 season in advance rule we have now.

You know damn well if we lifted that rule, trading would get incredibly out of hand by some teams.

Higgins 3,618 Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 I'm not saying don't do it. I'm saying don't put a condition in, just make the swap later without anyone knowing and consequently making a big deal out of trading a future pick Link to comment https://vhlforum.com/topic/9053-seaque-s38/#findComment-83128 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably because Frank wanted it written in stoopid. Besides that, it's done every season so who gives a shit besides Riga? Nobody, that's who.

RomanesEuntDomus 442 Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 The second year in a row where the market is terrible for sellers... Makes me wonder if this is a trend that will continue and what implications it should have, since we actually seem to be getting close to a point where we actually have too many active/high TPE-players for the non-rebuilding teams to fit under the cap. And yeah, just loosen the rules on trading future picks a bit. Don't do away with them entirely so that teams could go beserk with their picks, but allow for them to be traded one more year in advance than they can now.

Don't do away with them entirely so that teams could go beserk with their picks, but allow for them to be traded one more year in advance than they can now. From my experience, markets develop through trends, and who can realistically compete. In this current season, I would say the market is dry for the aforementioned reasons. First, several teams have established their core, and few teams are just initiating their rebuild like Quebec. Second, and perhaps more importantly, teams realistically understand that New York will be incredibly difficult to defeat, and would prefer to not offer major assets to slightly improve their already daunting odds. This truly hurts Quebec, because they are the only team willing to sell off legitimate pieces, but few teams are vigorously attacking the market. Tough break for them, and Frank HAD to get something for pieces that are expiring.
