Idea on fixing RFA
The Penner situation has caused lots of comments about the RFA situation under the current CBA. Here's my suggestion, and it doesn't just apply to RFAs.
Make players drafted by your organization, whom you have kept in your system since the draft only have half of their salary count against your cap. Players acquired before or during their rookie year, make it 75%. You could also make matching an offer sheet count against your cap 50% as well.
The exact percentages don't matter. The idea of encouraging teams to draft well and keep their own players should be rewarded.
