Good evening, NHL Gamers!
League Administration finalized it's ruling for a case involving the teams Refuse To Lose and Silver Sword Griffins and the player Kefleri. Kefleri left RTL without agreement from the captain Hanssonni, and joined SSG to immediately play 2 games with them against HC Checkmate. This violates the following rule:
---
8. Recruitment and transfers
"Team assistant captains are allowed to transfer in case the team captain agrees to a transfer. In case the team captain disagrees, an assistant captain is not allowed to be transferred to another team."
---
After discussing the case with both teams and the affected player, League Administration decided on the following outcome:
- Both games between Silver Sword Griffins and HC Checkmate will need to be replayed without Kefleri
- Kefleri will receive a 2 game ban for SSG's games against Kattiautomaatti
- pelimies80 will receive a 2 game ban for SSG's games against Kattiautomaatti due to transferring the player, even though he was aware of the above rule
- pelimies80 will of course be allowed to participate in the two rematches against HC Checkmate
At the time of this news story, Refuse to Lose agreed to the transfer, so Kefleri is allowed to join Silver Sword Griffins after all.
We would also like to include a general reminder to all captains: You are the team leader, and you have the power to decline an Assistant Captain's transfer. However if there are personal differences involved, and the captain tries to abuse this power by tying the player to the team after damage was already done (purposefully), the Fair Play rule comes into play. Benching a player in this scenario is strictly not welcome and League Administration will investigate.
