Greg Rajan clarifies the CHL's new affiliation structure, or as some might call them, "The Colorado Rules."
Teams with affiliation will notice a big change this season, as players on two-way contracts no longer count $450 toward the $8,500 weekly salary cap. The CHL has gone to a sliding scale that is expected to cut down on the abuse of two-way contracts to circumvent the cap.
Veterans with 260-plus games experience will count $625 against the cap, players with 129 to 259 games will count $525 and players with 128 or fewer games will count $425.
'The governors wanted to put something in that would encourage the more developmental players to come to our league,' said Duane Lewis, the CHL's vice president of operations.
This is a good rule. As far as the Ice Bats go, it shouldn't mean a thing, as historically speaking their affiliated players have always been rookies or second year guys. Tim Findlay, Ryan Pawluk, Jeff Kungle, Dan Price, Ryan Brindley, Troy Stonier, Mike Gaffney, Philippe Plante and Kelly Smart all came in under 128, while Bobby Brown and David Brosseau were in the middle range.
And while I joke about the "The Colorado Rules," it's worth noting that many of Laredo's two-way guys the past two years -- specifically, Brent Cullaton, Max Birbraer, Jason Spence, Eric Schneider, Andy Lundbohm and Michel Periard -- would have also triggered higher rates.
