As long as he still has at least one minor league option no one can touch him

Are we treating options the same as the MLB?

I consider using one option as calling a player up and sending him down.
Example: Tommy Hanson gets called up then sent down one of his options are used up

Example: Tommy Hanson gets called up then sent down one of his options are used up Yup, that's how it works in baseball and I'm glad to know I was doing it properly. I've always considered them in as minor league options, meaning an option isn't used up until the player is sent down to the minors. Calling him up doesn't use an option, sending him down does. That's why the two minor league players on my current roster still have the *(3 options remaining)* thing next to them on my team list. Depressing news, everyone! The Wings lost again and now the series is tied up 2-2. As long as they don't lose at home we're gravy, but I can't express how disappointed I am they didn't capitalize at a golden chance to put the Pens in their grave. Up 2 games to 1, have a 2-1 lead in the 2nd period with a power player and they give up a shorthanded goal. The momentum completely shifts and they Pens score two more quick goals. Argh! This has been your completely random and way off topic hockey update!

I believe the MLB does it differently without looking up the exact rule I believe, for every season in which a player signed under his original rookie contract is sent up to the majors and down to the minors uses 1 option. So in any given year a player can be called up and sent down as many times as need be using only one option for that year.

I don't know the exact rule myself and never had any intention of looking it up, it's possible I'm a bit rusty and "misremembering". All I know is I agree with the rule as Tyler has interpreted it. I don't think people will be sending people up and down like mad anyhow as we'd have to constantly signing and releasing players to do so and that can really add up in contract buyouts quickly. Hockey update! Wings up 3-2 in the series after a 5-0 blowout! For the final 20 minutes of the game the Penguins seemed more interested in fighting and taking cheap shots at the Red Wings players than they did in actually playing hockey. Nice to see them be so classy and keep their composure during tough times (*note the heavy sarcasm*)! I know that's usually what happens in hockey and wasn't surprised by it, but that doesn't make me approve of it.

Hitdog you may be right but for the sake of my sanity an option in this league is how I defined it in my first post.
