Finances

Heya Gang,

I'm suggesting more financial information being available for folks who aren't exactly sure how the hockey world operates. I've seen some online folks and including myself a little confused on how to gain the information needed such as simply viewing the Salary Cap (71,400,000), and what the exact number is for the floor (52,800,000) in the finances area.

Another concern (Potentially a bug ?) is when teams are looking to extend players on they're rosters the budget is coming out of the Free Agent budget and not the Extension budget. This is very deceiving as teams with current players who they choose to extent are confused especially in online leagues where managing your team and financials are essential.

Another question I have is that when the teams budget is inked in red and in a deficit , do these teams make the money to reduce this though out the season ? What happens during the off season when the teams are NOT making money thru tickets sales ? Are the teams needing to be that much more salary minded to keep everything in the green zone persay ?

Also, why is some teams that are barley over the floor have such as small FA budget that which are equivalent to high salaried teams close to the cap as opposed to other teams that are sitting close to the floor with a enormous FA budget ? Again, this is confusing especially in an online league where valuable information should be much more portrayed to understand.
