This is a vote-off between two proposals, the winner of which will go against the incumbent. The current rule is 18.6. I encourage you to review the rule in the rulebook in the sticky at the top of the sub-forum.
Option 1.
All players may play any number of playoff games subject to the following:
If a skater suffers an injury result of āPā or āGā in a playoff game, he may not play in the next playoff game.
If a goalie suffers an injury in a playoff game, he may not play as the starting goalie in the next playoff game.
Injures carry over between series in the same playoff year but not between playoff years.
Option 2.
Rule Proposal: playoff eligibility using averages.
Each year, a list will be provided for each player showing, based on their GP, the average number of playoff games they would roll in for in a playoff series.
For every game in every series, the following procedure is used:
* For each player, look up their average number of games played in that series, from the provided list.
** If they are currently below average GP in this series, and playing next game would still have them below average, they automatically qualify to play.
** If they are currently above average GP in this series, and missing next game would still have them above average, they automatically are ineligible to play.
** Otherwise, a pair of d10s is used, with one marked as the 'tens' digit, to generate a number between 01 and 82 (all other results from 83 to 00 are re-rolled, until a result from 01 to 82 is generated). If that roll is less than or equal to their real-life GP, they are eligible to play. Otherwise, they are not eligible to play.
** Note that players who have played *exactly* the average number of games must roll for the next game.
Optional rule for goalies: if two or more goalies on a team add up to 82GP, they may be combined into a goaltending 'squad' for that series. In any game where all goalies in the squad fail to be rolled in, the goalie with the lowest SV% will qualify.
