Shalom uvracha Lchavrei hakolel!!
Has anyone noticed that Rashi on Yoma daf 2b says in Dh "Hanoheg" that Miluim was noheg one time a year. This is seemimgly incorrect since Miluim was noheg only once in the midbar and afterwards cohenim were mischanech to the avoda through minchas chavitim. What is Rashi saying?

Good question. Yes, some of us noticed it. It seems that Rashi (DH ha'Noheg) means to say that it is something that was not done more than one time in one year (to exclude the Regalim which occur several times per year). Rashi does not mean that it was done one time each year, though.
The SI'ACH YITZCHAK implies from the words of Rashi (who writes "Pa'am Achas Hu d'Havu ba'Shanah" and not the more straightforward "Pa'am Achas Hu b'Shanah") that by using the past tense of "d'Havu" he means to say that it occurred not only once in a year, but once in history -- in that year of Moshe Rabeinu and never was repeated again (except when the third Beis ha'Mikdash will be rebuilt, as the Gemara 5b implies). (The RITVA, though, is Mechadesh that there was also a Milu'im procedure in the time of Shlomo ha'Melech and Ezra.)

================================
*Menachos 45a*
Said Rebbi Yosi, "Korbanos of Milu'im were offered in the times of Ezra just as they were offered in the times of Moshe."
*Shitah Mekubetzes, ibid., #4*
"This statement is not meant to be taken literally, since the verses cited [as a source for Rebbi Yosi's statement] are discussing the future [i.e the third Beis ha'Mikdash]. . What Rebbi Yosi means is that if the Jews would have merited it in the times of Ezra, they would have brought Korbanos of Milu'im then [and merited to an eternal Beis ha'Mikdash]. - TOSFOS CHADASHIM"
