LINES
-Preferably sent in the form of a set of zipped up "LNS" files. Use the "Save Lines" button on the Lines tab in EHM to create the files.
-If you think you'll want to switch goalies for one of the games or change the lines a bit, the best way to do it is to just save a separate LNS file for that date.
-Don't forget to create lines for your Farm team.
-I put the sim date that each LNS file applies to right in the file name.
-I also put in whether the LNS file applies to the Pro team or Farm team.
-Sample file names:
Rangers_PRO_15-3-2006.lns
Rangers_FARM_15-3-2006.lns
Penalty-killing Tip:
The player on the right in SH lines takes the faceoff.
Rules Regarding Lines (TO BE MODIFIED PENDING UPDATED RULES):
General Shift Length:
All lines must last a minimum of 30 seconds
No line may exceed 80 seconds.
Hit and Grind Rule:
The Hit and Grind tactic may be used within the game but with the following restrictions.
1) Hit and Grind may not be used on more than two lines
2) Hit and Grind may not be used on the 1st AND 2nd lines together but may be used on either one seperatly or alongside the 3rd or 4th lines.
3) The maximum length of a hit and grind line may be 40 seconds
PLAYER CONTRACT OFFERS (TO BE MODIFIED BASED ON CURRENT RULES)
-Minimum info required: Player name, Offerred length, Base Salary, and Bonus.
-May also include at GM's discretion: Team Option, Player Option, 2-Way Contract, and No Trade Clause.
-If player is a free agent, then indicate either UFA or RFA. I also add in age and position since the Commish might have to search and it makes it easier.
-I always keep Free Agent offers separate from Contract Extensions to my own players.
-Sample:
Free Agent Contract Offer:
Wayne Gretzky - Center, 18 yrs old
Base: $10,000,000
Bonus: $1,500,000
Length: 6 years
Team Option
2-Way Contract
STAFF CONTRACT OFFERS (MAY BE REMOVED)
-Minimum required: Staff Name, Role (GM, Physio, etc), Salary, Contract Length
-For free agent staff, I include age as well as it's another way to sort the list and might make searching easier.
-If Staff is not currently with a team, then indicate as such.
-If you want the staff member to be assigned to your Farm team upon signing, then indicate as such. Double check that this ocurred after getting the next sim file.
PLAYER PROMOTION DEMOTION
-Indicate which players should be demoted to the Farm or promoted to the Pro team.
-Samples:
Demote to Farm:
Karel Pilar

CHANGE PRIMARY POSITION
-Many players have more than 1 position that they play. If you think that a player will be playing his secondary position for the long-term, then request that his primary position be switched with his secondary position.
-Sample:
Primary Position Change:
Please change Brad Boyes to RW from C
STATUS IN ORGANIZATION
-If a player complains that he should be, for example, a "Core Player", and you agree, then submit the instructions to change his status if you believe that it will be useful.

TRAINING
-The following all apply to both PRO and FARM training. Always keep both in mind as your farm team could suffer as a result and that could hurt the development of some players on that team.

-Sample Training Assignments:
Please Update the following training Assignments:
Patrick Chelios: Attack
Mike Komisarek: Defense
