Just giving you a heads up that you have an empty roster spot open on your bench.

Thanks for the heads up Adam. I've been holding off on filling it until this mess was done and now that we're back on, my "people" are in heavy debate around the table figuring out who to bring in.
A quick question though...
Thrashers Ken said that he won't have to pay Brunner anything this year because it's his first year in the NHL...that's until he plays the minimum required games AND THEN his 5-year EL contract starts...correct?
Be the same for me with Yakupov and Tarasenko then, right?

Ya, you're correct. Because Yakupov and Tarasenko have not played their minimum NHL games benchmark, they will not cost you a thing this season, no matter what. If they play 41 or more games this season, then they would start their EL contracts next season if still on your MAJOR roster.
If an EL guy plays 40 games in the NHL this year, that still counts as less than 1 year of service, and they'd still only be $0 as well. When a player hits the minimum 41gp mark, the following season, they get their $1 salary, and then $2, then $5, etc.
