Elite Hockey Experience

The following list of players are scheduled to not be eligible for EHE play in the 2018-19 season, due to retirement or agreements they have with teams in Europe or Asia. You may still retain their rights depending on their contract situation and age. Later in the offseason, GMs will also have the right to elect three of their own players on this list to remain active for next season, if they are currently under contract, have not retired, and were not chosen for reactivation last season.

Chris Carlisle has been reactivated to Montreal.

Today was the general first day of European league regular seasons, which means we've now reached the cutoff for automatic player deactivations. For any player who transfers overseas from this point, the owning team will have the option of keeping them on their active roster at no penalty. Of course, a player who retires would still be removed from activity, as well as any UFAs who transfer out of North American pro hockey.

You may now begin requesting players to be reactivated for this season, within the guidelines stated in the first post of this thread and the CBA. Please do so within this thread or in an e-mail sent to the league. Do not send me a PM for this. The deadline to make these requests is the first day of the EHE preseason.

The Blackhawks would like to reactivate Jacob Josefson and Robin Press.

Thanks!

The Habs will reactivate Nail Yakupov

Rangers - Kristers Gudlevskis, please.

Anaheim has seen this thread and declines to reactivate anyone
