I just uploaded the lastest version of the rules. No big changes here, just updating to what's been used by Mike B and Andrew, so far this season.
Updates from the old rules are in 'red'.
Go to the homepage, League Information and then click on Rules, to get the new rules document.

There WILL be changes to the rules next season. We will be falling in line with the OHL - only 1 import will be allowed on each team. So keep that in mind for tradings and setting your team up for the future. I didn't want any surprises.
Another thing that could be coming next season is a restriction on USA born players. I'm not sure of the details and if it'll apply to US based teams as well. I just know that the CHA consitution does mention the import change for 09/10 and hints at the USA born rule.
Other things to watch for is 16-year olds. We will be falling in line with rules there - I believe only 4 can be on your active roster. But I am currently researching the details so we can get it right.
I will post information as it rolls in.

I thought the OHL teams could have 2 imports, I worked for the Spirit and they have had 2 the past few year, as well as this year.

Yes the OHL has had the 2 imports rule for years now. But starting next year they are changing it to just one. Sorry I wasn't clear - this year the OHL and us have 2 imports. But starting next year the real OHL goes to just 1 import and so I figured we should follow suit, next year.

Jerry, you're also correct on the number of 16yr olds allowed to be played on each OHL team--4.
This is great so no one team could tank to improve their overall future team strength.
