The current agreement is the 2013 Collective Bargaining Agreement as amended by the 2020 and 2025 Memoranda of Understanding, which run through September 15, 2030. Ask anything in plain English: every answer quotes the governing text word for word, and a program rejects any quote that is not in the documents.

Ask about the CBA
Waivers, entry-level slides, offer-sheet compensation, buyouts, LTIR, arbitration, term limits, signing bonuses, the salary cap. Answers cite the article or page they come from.

The 2025 MOU is published as a scanned document; CapOrCup's searchable copy was produced by text recognition, so quotes from it may carry small recognition errors (for example “terin” for “term”). Always open the linked page for the authoritative wording.
