It's maddening... "It's not a good idea to sign a guy for more then 6 years!" Ok... don't sign a guy for more then six years then, problem solved. "But then someone else will get him!"... So? If it's a bad idea then let someone else make that mistake.
Why are so many people so eager to create rules (and lose hockey via lock-out) for the sole purpose of allowing hockey orgs to continue to employ people who don't have sound enough decision making to do the job? It's silly.

You know what, you're probably right.
Teams should set rules like this internally and over time they would probably be miles ahead of other teams, cap wise and asset wise.
I wish one rule the Flames had internally was:
Don't trade draft picks for players, only trade players for draft picks.
If you're drafting and development is on point you would be a perennial powerhouse.
