2026 Offseason

[SharksGM]

The draft order page is up to date, but please double-check your picks anyway. The contract calculator is also up to date. As with last year, I will need to undo cap retention on expiring contracts (though I don't think there were any for RFAs). I don't think there are pending trade conditions to resolve.

I haven't started the draft. I think Kevin is planning to do the same old big spreadsheet like last year, while watching the World Cup as many of you probably are too. It will probably take a month to finish like last year. Trades have been open for a while so do as you will. I have no particular plans for rule changes besides maybe taking another stab at the playoff cap idea, but I haven't thought about how to deal with the retention issue so that might not go anywhere.
