Release Player/Sign Player

[mike]

In the world of our free market system though why shouldn't it be allowed? You still have to buy him out so the player would get all that money upfront and then he also gets a brand new contract. It doesn't make any sense when another team could sign him for less money and he'd agree to it, but not the team that released him. The only way this would work is if we say that he has to make at least what he was making annually with his previous team.
