What do you guys think? Teams have been over the cap, since the start of the season.

depends who was over cap. if they were teams that didn't have owners since the beginning of the season I would be reluctant to punish them. Unless of course it was blatant cheating, then I say forfeit they playoff spot and their 1st round pick this year (if they don't have it make it their 2nd plus their 1st next year or something).

lose your top 2 producing players to the UFA immediately and the player with most points after the 2 are gone is not allowed to play for the remainder of the season and the playoffs
Edit: and lose all your draft picks for this seasons draft.

2 members that have had teams forever on here are over. They knowingly post there cap as being over the whole season. If somebody is over for acouple games, I have no issue. But for 50+ games. There needs to be a big penalty.

If we are going to punish someone by removing players, I would let every single UFA and RFA contract on that player's team go to free agency and then let the team(s) in question out bid everyone else. Either by telling them what the best offer is and forcing them to match it or beat it (kind of like RFA but with no pick compensation), or by just sending those players to free agency, they can get them back only if their offer is the best.

I agree with Pens, there should be a big penalty. People intentionally going over the cap puts them at an unfair advantage. What's the point of having a cap if people are just going to ignore it. Draft picks aren't that big of a deal to some people. I say forfeit at top player to free agency.

There needs to be a big penalty. agreed, I just wanted to be sure that they were long time members who either cheated blatantly or who were lazy and didn't care. Either way I'm ok with a punishment. Although I think Leafs and PR should consider just kicking the members all together. If they haven't done anything then I say good riddance.

booting Cranker and Scorch would be taking it too far. I think we need a cap mode again

"I'm not a big fan of straight out losing your top guy to UFA. especially if he still has a few years on his deal. If we are going to punish someone by removing players, I would let every single UFA and RFA contract on that player's team go to free agency and then let the team(s) in question out bid everyone else. Either by telling them what the best offer is and forcing them to match it or beat it (kind of like RFA but with no pick compensation), or by just sending those players to free agency, they can get them back only if their offer is the best. " I'd say do 4 things: 1) Disqualify them from the playoffs 2) take away their picks 3) let their UFAs walk at end of year. (they dont want to re-sign after they worked all year just to disqualify for the playoffs) 4) whatever they are over in cap, they cannot spend for next season (if they are 3M over cap, and the cap for next year is 65M they can only spend 62M), or pick a flat number. I'll leave it up to PR and Leafs though.

I like a lot of the ideas on here. I'll get PR to read them tonight and we'll figure out what's best. Again, this is why I love this site. The "admins" don't have to throw rules around all over the place, the league just sort of evolves them.

I was never over the cap. I just never updated my section of cap space, I was over the cap in the offseason when I had Michalek, then i moved him out. I've always been like 20k under.
