Oh it's posted ? So I guess it's true? Didn't read story.

Lol. Hey when my friend actually tells me his inside news I get excited. Lol. Sry

Not confirmed yet.

Interesting.

It's 8.3 for cap hit

There is plenty of cap space available to resign read next year. They do not have to move him.

They can add two ufa's without needing to trade anyone. Like a goalie and gags as long as the total is around 5 mil.

Yes. That was my point in another post. They are actually fine depending on their goaltender choice. Also when it comes to g and his contract. Say he gets 7.5 against the cap. That's 4 m more then this season. Schenn will make the same in total salary or even slightly less then the 3.1 contract now since most are bonus awarded. Coots will get a slight raise from his current salary, unless he has a break out year. So with all three of those players your looking at adding 6 million more to the next offseason. Your removing kimmo and mez for 10 mil in savings. So that leaves you with 4 million extra space. This is not including the rumored increase in the cap from anywhere between 6-10 million. So really they are looking at 10-14 million in available space to add another dman at that point or goalie. Or both. To me there is no point to trade for yandle or another dman like that. Unless we are talking coby, coots, read and 1st for jones or weber we soon stand pat.

Ruxpin. I really don't see a reason for any roster moves to comply with cap. Take five mil because of pronger and sign a goalie at a nice price of two mill to compete with mason. There really isn't a goalie market out there right now. B Schenn will not make more then his current cap hit of 3.1 with his next deal. Remember most is bonus money now. Coots depending on his season might get a slight bump in salary. Read is maybe the only question mark. You lose kimmo six mil and mez four mil plus the cap is projected to go up anywhere from 5-10 mil next year in the early reports.

@Bertmega. I'm going with the rating category of bs1-bs5. It most accurately describes eks ratings.

@DaGreatGazoo. That was awesome. Made me laugh.

I had mentioned this yesterday after the signing. Just was thinking that toronto and Tampa had an arrangement of trade and buy out with vinny resigning for a lower cap hit already figured out with vinny. The league shot it down right away. Now after I said that on here I got a text message from my friend early this morning who's a family member of homer who I get a lot of insider stuff from when I actually get ahold of him. Apparently he is a member here but don't know his screen name. He won't tell me that. His message was to me was and I quote......."there is no policy in place in the cba blocking what you just said on hockeyforums.net. Wouldn't it be funny if there was already an agreement in place on return for vinny next off season?" I replied but haven't heard from him yet.

@flyercanuck. Lol sry. I was dazed and confused after slamming my head against the wall after reading it.

Yah I've been reading its suppose to be raised from 4-6 mil after this season. The reduction this year was the negotiated amount in the cba.

@hf101. No idea

One thing I saw in Kane is that he hates to lose.

I don't want halak.

The blogger for the Edmonton oilers. Apparently he knows all. I know homer and the oils gm were talking all during the draft so I guess that holds merit. However, not to sure about halak though.

Apparently it's officially in the works now. Along with coby to Edmonton for another forward.

I think Jerry jones just bought the flyers.

Sry guys but we needed someone with size down the middle. He fits the bill.

By my figures they have 5 mil in space yet.

They aren't done yet.

Five years at 23 mil I believe.

Yah. I liked the pick. If he was in the 220lbs range I could see him making the team. He's only 17 so he will fill out.
