While I can understand that in theory, the problem for me is, where do we draw the line? Are all players that are on waivers now off limits? Obviously I don't think Bill would have dropped a guy like Kovalchuk or Heatley had he realized that the championships went 2 weeks. As I'm sure that there were moves that you wouldn't have made as well. However, Bill has made 18 additional transactions (a combination of adds and deletes) since he found out about the 2 week championship.
Maybe the fairest and easiest solution at this point is to just lock all rosters where they are now. Since I don't think that anyone (myself included) realized that it was a 2 week finals that is still playing, everyone was affected equally.
Thoughts?

My only issue with that would be injuries. I agree that playoff rosters should be locked. We should "dance with the one's that brought us" so to speak.
Perhaps we could add an additional roster spot or two that would help to offset the risk of injuries during the playoffs? That way the rosters could be locked but we'd still have some added depth to plug into the lineup in the event of injuries.
Just a thought.
