This is not a discussion of No-GM trades. This is a discussion purely on the draft idea. Gotta say the discussion goes hand and hand. Personally, if we're manipulating the rankings bc they don't have a GM, I'd vote to just remove those teams entirely from the league and have their players enter the upcoming draft with whatever YR they have left.

Welcome to NHL 1992. Also, we have no Boston Bruins, so Original six is broken.

At this point, the majority are in favour of not changing the draft order for No-GM teams. If we don't want to take draft picks from them, I don't see why we would be cool with making trades with them that will FOR CERTAIN lead to league-wide fighting, bickering, arguing, feelings of butt-hurtness, and rage-quitting.
Right now, we are all united in wanting the things we can't have. (In theory, it also keeps everyone on the look out for new members, etc). But mostly, despite it being a negative, it's still something we all agree with. We all want to make those deals, especially once No-GM teams start scooping our coveted picks. But the shit show that will come about if we open up no-GM trades is not worth any players.

So basically what you're saying is that unless we agree your goofy idea, that it would seem only you two want, and move the non-GM'd teams to the bottom of the draft order so you can pick ahead them yourself since you'll be at the bottom of the order cuz you have a good team, then you're just going to continue punishing the rest of the league by not allowing non-GM trading as well, which clearly the rest of the league wants non-GM trading. 🤔 Yeah... that totally prevents any bickering and arguing, since the rest of the league wants. That's brilliant... 🙄

I wish you would stop trying to make everything about me. Use some of that energy to try to get people like Craig to join up or something. Then you would not have to worry about No-GM trades - you could trade with your real-life friends.

This has nothing to do with me. 1) It doesn't matter if it was your idea or not, you're clearly in favor of it. 2) I wasn't meaning for just this draft. I was also meaning subsequent drafts moving forward there after as well. So of course you want to pick before the non-GM teams as a top team in the league. 🙄😂
