I think you are referring to "free agency"
I also liked it better when the Skins essentially owned players for their whole careers...but it kinda hurt the players.
I wouldn't mind seeing some form of "restricted free agency" system for all players plus a cap amount that is 50% higher than the current rate.
This way ....if the Skins wanted to overspend...they could within reason...but if they wanted someone elses players...they'd essentially have to trade picks (which we do anyways)....the difference would be that we could spend way more than now...we'd just need to stockpile picks to aquire other teams talent.
Of course some will say this will cost us more than now...but..keep in mind, the price for a restricted free agent may be less because of less competion since it is essentially a trade....not to mention, if everyone is restricted...it is far more likely that you could retain them for their entire career...especially if you are willing to pay the most.
