Folks
Unfortunately we need to make a correction to batch 1 of free agency
You'll recall that in our instructions, we stated that in order for offers to be valid, all players on 1 way contracts needed to be in the CPHL. This is the only way for people to be bidding under the same restraints.

We have realized that Vancouver had Eddie Lack, who is on a 1 way, in the AHL.

As such we are ruling his batch 1 offers invalid
What this means
- Kris Letang will be awarded to the Hurricanes, who were the only other team to bid for Letang. 3yrs @ 1.00M 1-Way (100% AHL).
- Alex Steen, surprisingly, received no other bids in Batch 1, and will be added to batch 3.

I want to emphasize that there was no intent on Vancouver's part, just an unfortunate oversight.

Questions?
