Contracts offered in the first UFA period must be resolved before new contracts can be offered. So, if a player is still considering an offer, they cannot be offered a contract in the second round of offers. This is to stop teams looking in the game to see what offer will beat existing ones as it is an unfair advantage. I will try and edit the game file so that contract decision times are low enough to resolve offers, but, where there are lots of offers, I may only do this for significant NHL ready players.

This was bought in a few seasons ago but no one has really used it yet.
2. Players maximum contract amount per year is now set at $8,000,000. If they ask for more, offer that and I will edit the game file when they sign.

This is new this year. It was suggested on the forums and I was going to give it more consideration but having gone through the game doing qualifying offers, the amount of players asking for $10 to £13 million was very high. Mon
