KEL GM Tasks Punishment & GM Tasks Punishments Update - ACapitalChicago - 05-13-2022 Howdy everyone! On May 10th the Kelowna Knights indicated that they completed their GM task of updating their Roster & Update Pages subforums. Unfortunately, they missed moving the pages of two players no longer on their team. Both should have been moved to a different subforum for other teams to potentially sign. This caused a bit of an issue for teams looking for a potential player to sign, and required action per the SMJHL Rulebook. As such, SMJHL HO has voted for a $2m fine to KEL's GM pay for this incident. However, in its current state, the rulebook indicates this would be a loss of half GM pay. SMJHL HO has felt that this particular line of punishments has been overly harsh for too long, and has instead voted to restructure our punishment guidelines here to be more current. Currently, the punishment is:
Our intent with the new structure is to modernize our rules here in a circumstance that we already frequently find ourselves ruling more leniently on. The bottom subclause is intended to be a catch-all clause that enables us to be more in line with our already existing precedent of taking the full context of any missed GM tasks or errors that are not found till much later. While the absolute literal intention of the rulebook when finding a missed error later in the season would dictate dismissal of a GM, this obviously overly harsh. With the existence of the Appeals Committee we feel confident that between SMJHL HO & them we can ensure this works out best and fairly for everyone. As always, @trashae & @artermis are free to appeal this, and people may reach out with any questions, comments, or concerns.
