Each GM for an NHL team can have a ONE TIME amnesty drop - once the drop is used, that franchise will no longer have this option. Should a new GM take over a franchise, the Amnesty drop option is made available again.
-This amnesty clause can be used to release any player on your team, with either no, or a lowered cap penalty. If the player's salary is below or equal to $20M a year, you will not need to pay anything after amnestying him. If the player costs over $20M per season, you will pay 50% of all salary above $20M for the duration of the contract. For example, if I have a player for $32M signed through 2016, I would owe $6M through 2016 after amnestying him.
-After being amnestied, a player will go to FREE AGENCY (amended June 2017)waivers (GM dropping the player - please post the player in the WAIVED thread). Hence the 48 hour period of the players being on waivers also commences. Top waiver priority wins the claim.
-If the player goes unclaimed, he will become a normal FA to be bid on.
-Amnesty clauses are not tradable.
-Once you've used your amnesty clause you will not receive another one, so be smart about it.
