How to Use CEHL

• Drafts, Draft Standings, and Draft Order help with pick value, trade planning, and future roster moves.
• Free Agents lists available players and gives you the path to make an offer when offers are open.
• Free Agent Offers shows current market activity, including active offers and offer history.
• Player Search is the fastest way to check whether a player is signed, claimable, or worth targeting.
• Salary Cop and Rules help you check cap, roster, waiver, contract, and site rules.

Open My CEHL > My Team after login. Use this area to check your team and get to the request screens.

• The General tab contains ticket changes, position changes, player releases, and player claims when those options are open.
• Check the related rules first, because some actions are only available at certain times or for certain players.
• After you send a request, the page should show a confirmation, a pending note, or a message telling you what to fix.

• Ticket price requests are used when you want the arena ticket price changed.
• Position change requests should match the rules and the way the player is being used.
• Player release requests start the release process when the player can be released under the rules.
• Player claim entry points are used when a claim is open and the player can be claimed.

Open My CEHL > Line Editor, then switch to the Team Roster view. Use this screen to make roster moves before you set the lines.

• Move players between Pro, Scratches, and Farm until the roster looks right for the next sim. Holdouts show up as scratches here.
• Save Lines still matters here: roster changes do not count until you save, even if you did not change the lines themselves.
• The site does not change right away. The commissioner has to upload the saved files before the changes appear.
• Position changes from My Team take effect right away and will show the next time the editor loads.
• When new files are uploaded, the editor refreshes to match the latest uploaded version.

Return to the Team Lines view after the roster is set. This is where you set the lineup the commissioner will post next.

• Check line assignments, extras, scratches, goalie usage, and special teams before you submit.
• Saving matters: unsaved changes do not count yet.
• If a player is missing, check the roster move, injury status, waiver status, holdout status, or page filter.
• After a trade, claim, signing, or injury, review both screens so the next save matches your team.
• When new files are uploaded, the editor reloads to the latest site version.

• Use Propose New Trade to build an outgoing offer with players, picks, and a note for the other GM.
• Use Incoming Requests to accept or reject trades sent to your team.
• Outgoing trades can usually be reviewed or cancelled while they are still waiting.
• Completed and rejected history gives you a record after the trade is finished.
• Notification badges point to trade requests that need your response.

• Open Free Agents to filter by position, team, UFA/RFA status, rating, age, and other details.
• Use the table to compare player age, current team, agent, ratings, and the OFF tag before you decide.
• Open Free Agent Offers to see active offers, recent offers, top AAV, top days, comments, and signed players.
• Use player details, contracts, stats, rules, and Salary Cop before you choose years, salary, signing bonus, and whether the player fits your team.

• Active Offers shows the leading offer, AAV (average yearly value), top days, comments, pending activity, and rejected offer counts.
• Signed Players keeps the finished market visible after decisions are made.
• Use this page before you change an offer so you can see whether a player already has a leader, other offers waiting, or recent movement.

1. Open the player offer action from the Free Agents page when offers are open.
2. Enter years, annual salary, signing bonus, and an optional comment if it helps explain your offer.
3. Review the average yearly value (AAV) before you send it. Signing bonus affects AAV even though it is not the same as annual salary.
4. Send the offer and make sure it shows up in Free Agent Offers or your My Offers view.
5. Go back to the same player if you need to update, retract, or re-offer it when the site allows it.

• Open My CEHL > My Offers > Free Agent Offers to track your submitted, rejected, accepted, pending, signed, retracted, or countered offers.
• Badges and row labels show when you need to do something next.
• Use the actions shown for that row, such as submit, update, retract, re-offer, revise, or view.

Open My CEHL > My Offers > Extensions when extensions are open. Extension offers are for next year, so check the current deal, player age, rules, and guide before you choose terms.

1. Start from Extension Candidates and open the offer button for the player you want to extend.
2. Send years, salary, signing bonus, and a short note if it helps explain your offer.
3. Track Open Extension Offers, Countered By Agent, Accepted, and Rejected rows.
4. Use View, Revise, or Re-Offer when those choices are shown.
5. If the agent sends back a counter, compare it with your offer and decide whether to change it, send it again, or leave it alone.

• The window shows the current contract, your offer, and any counter when those are there.
• Years, salary, signing bonus, comment, and AAV are checked before you send, update, retract, revise, or re-offer.
• If buttons are missing, the window may be closed, the player may not be eligible, or the offer may already be finished.

• Use Add Rank to add more slots, up to 10 names.
• The site checks names and warns you if a name cannot be used.
• Save the list before the deadline. The league resolves the 5-round blind draft in a reverse-standings snake order, so put your best target first.

When the draft board is not active, the Player Claim page switches to the standard claim form. This is the everyday claim mode after the draft window has passed.

• Use the claim form to request a player you can claim.
• Standard claims are handled on a first come first serve basis. If multiple teams hit the same player at once, the league uses its tie break rules to sort it out.
• Use the claim table to follow submitted, cancelled, confirmed, rejected, or completed claims.
• Cancel only while the option is still there. Once the claim is locked or already finished, the cancel action may disappear.
• Check the player, your roster, and the timing before you submit.
