I would also like to add limited roster slots (Taxi Squad) for EL players. Perhaps 2-3 slots where an owner can place a EL drafted player and said player does not take up a roster position and he is unable to be placed on a team's active roster for a minimum of 2 years. We need to allow time for our drafted players to reach an age where they can be either everyday players or released to free agency. We cannot contain our roster sizes with 5 draft picks a year while at the same time allow our players to develop. This proposal lost 7-5 last year when it went to a vote. I'm not opposed to revisiting it, but I do think (agreeing with Doug here) that we should at least see how reducing the length of the entry draft makes prospect roster management easier.

The summit's already been completed for this off-season, and the list of proposals up for vote are finalized. We can certainly have it on the docket for the following season, however.

I’m not looking for a dissertation on revisiting. A close vote last should at least warrant a poll. Another owner has also expressed agreement and there is merit here.

If two sentences qualified as a dissertation, grad school would have gone a whole lot smoother.

Jesper Wallstedt was my #1 pick from 2021 and as we enter 2023 he is at best another year away. Sounds like you drafted Walleye (may have gotten the name wrong) too soon! Wait a year or two next time! The champion has spoken

You cannot use the FAIR rule on players charged with felonies.
