FYI regarding RFA's and Trades

[Preds]

Just a FYI to those who may not be aware.

RFA's CANNOT be traded until In-Season Free Agency Begins, which is at the END of August.

Keep that in mind with your bids, SACD has a hard cap at all times, and you cannot trade tendered or acquired RFA's for several months.

Here's the specifics (3rd paragraph)

RFA's cannot be traded prior to the start of in-season free agency (August 31st). The team winning the rights to the RFA (either the tendering team if they decide to match, or the highest bidding team if the tendering team declines to match) cannot trade that player until the start of in-season free agency has begun.
