Is the cheese rule in effect right now?
What's the deal with sign and trade being so popular this year? I know it's not that same as trading a players rights, but it basically is the same thing.

Roster/Salary cap are all off during the off-season until just before the regular season is ready to start.
If you sign a UFA now 2016/2017 will indeed count as the first year. You can wait but you risk someone else signing that player
The Cheese rule is always active but there's no point in trading 2016/2017 cap. As always, you can't exceed cheese for 2017/2018 either.
I dono't know why there is all this talk about sign and trades but there hasn't actually been an attempted deal yet. Any sign and trades would be rejected though until that UFA has been signed by their current team.
