2021 Unrestricted Free Agency

[SharksGM]

The UFA signing period will begin on Thursday, September 16 at 5 PM ET. Please consult the UFA page (RFAs marked with asterisks) and review the rulebook entry on contracts if you have any questions.

I would very much appreciate it if you could post offers in one of these formats:
1y 600k
or
1y 600000
or
3y 2.5m

This will make entering the contracts easier for me.

Any pre-UFA transactions (re-signings, trades, etc) must be posted by Wednesday, September 15 at 5 PM ET. The file will be updated and rolled through to September on Wednesday night.

Any questions?

All restricted free agents now have an asterisk next to their name on the UFA page (unless you misspelled the name or did not include the accents, if they're in the file, in which case ¯\_(ツ)_/¯).

When I go to the UFA page (https://ehec.pro/ufa.php?teamid=11) via the GM office, it appears to show only UFAs according to EHM, as opposed to the pending UFA page (https://ehec.pro/ufa.php?pending=-1), linked in the rulebook --> contracts post on the forums. I'm not sure if that's intentional or not, so I just thought I'd mention it.

Jacob Larsson should be with the Sabres (has been claimed on waivers last week)

That's because I had only simmed to July 21 last night. I have now simmed past the rollover and we're officially in 2021-22. You can and should now use the regular UFA page.

I extended every expiring staff contract by one year because otherwise it would be a bigger pain to re-enter them. Fire and/or re-assign them as you will.

Note that I have left the old boxscores/schedule/statistics up until we start preseason.

Great work, thank you.

Quoting for emphasis.

This is great fun

Going to quote this yet again since most people aren't doing it.

If you format them this way I can copy-paste them directly with no chance of data entry errors. If you don't, I can't.

A quick reminder that it's September 23, so you can now have a week to make offers to RFAs at any amount equal to or greater than their qualifying offer, should you choose to do so.
