MESSAGE FROM THE COMMISSIONER 

Congratulations to the 2020-2021 RHL Champion NY Islanders and Jean-Guy Levesque who takes home the hardware for the third time!  Also want to point out what a great season that David Boutin and Montreal had and the moves he made throughout the season that got him to that spot.  Thanks for another great year guys, we are almost finished with season with Awards voting finishing up tomorrow and Ballot Props going out on Monday to be voted on.  If anyone does not plan to return next year, please let me know asap though as always I do hope that all 24 owners will be back for another swing at it!

Please take a look at the information about Ballot Props and Awards voting a bit further down.

The final files are one the website for anyone interested in taking a look.

OK guys, with the playoffs moving along pretty well now and the summer coming up
quickly, many of you probably want to get moving on to other stuff, so let's finish
up the final two things for the season, ballot props and awards voting.  I will send
a separate email with the link for the awards ballot shortly.

For ballot props, looking for any ideas that will help to improve the league as a
whole.  I am not looking for guys to throw vague ideas at the wall to see what sticks,
that only creates arguments and then we usually don't end up voting on it or it
becomes something totally different.  What I am looking for is well thought out
proposals that would benefit the league. Again, any changes we make will have to get
a 2/3 vote (so 16 teams saying yes), so it needs to be something that will benefit
the entire league or fix a perceived problem that everyone might agree on. Certain
things I may shoot down if they are staples of the league (ie the salary system,
contracts, free agency) but even those if you see something we can be doing better,
by all means let's discuss it.

I would like any ideas submitted by Sunday, May 9th, so two weeks to hash them out
and get them exactly as you want them to be.  You do NOT have to send them to the
list, they can go straight to me, but I find that usually ideas that get discussed
and tweaked have a better chance of passing than those that aren't.  You can also
send them directly to me to get my opinion and I will be honest with you whether I
would back it or not, but in most cases if I don't, I will still put it on the ballot
if there appears to be support from the league at large.

If you have any questions, please let me know, I will put out the preliminary ballot
on the 9th and then we will vote on it shortly after that. Keep in mind, that if you
do NOT plan to return next year I would appreciate you not joining in any discussions
as you will not get to vote and I would hate to see you affect others opinions if
you will be leaving the league (hopefully no one and you all return :O)

Also please take a minute an cast your vote for the Awards ballot which is due next
weekend - https://kwiksurveys.com/s/KvQp3Xjq
