I'll post/update my thoughts on the League in this thread.
1. Need active managers for all teams. After going through my first season, I'd rather have active GMs with multiple teams than have unmanaged teams. As long as everyone knows which teams are managed by the same GM, we could figure out a way to review trades between those teams to ensure the trades are fair. Maybe we could limit it to two teams, and they would have to be in different conferences.
2. Communications: Once the season started, official SCD communications almost ceased. We didn't need much during the season, but I didn't even know we were in the playoffs until the beginning of the Conference Final week. Part of that is my fault for only using the ESPN app, but a quick note would've been cool, maybe even a weekly summary during the season or something. Or a Trade Deadline announcement.
3. Weekly adds: I'm OK with unlimited adds, but making it a max of 5 would be fine.
4. Max retained salary: We already have a salary cap (which goes down from $85M to $76M this year), so I don't see a need to establish a max retained salary. From my experience this season, I ran into cap issues since I went so close to my cap to start the year. When I had to pay people who went on IR and rookies I called up, I had to get creative to stay below the cap (thank you Flames GM (Beamer) for keeping me straight
).
5. All-Star Game: That was a fun addition to the season, thanks Blues GM (Wood)!
