SMJHL HO was made aware of early contact with a prospect in the upcoming SMJHL Entry Draft before said player was approved. This is a violation of SMJHL Rulebook 10.k.i. The following GMs will be fined $2M for the violation:

@Gwdjohnson
@retuperkele
@sköldpaddor
@Aleris
@Seany148
@Shiamus

As always, these GMs are able to appeal this decision to the appeals committee.

SMJHL HO has also decided to lock these punishment threads after posting, as we want to keep the community informed of any violations, but we do not feel the discourse in these threads tends to be positive or helpful. Thank you.
