  1. Well, I truly don't know about the NBA. I have heard about a draft developed player exemption and like the idea. What I would like is a dollar for dollar penalty for going over the cap.So, if the Hawks want to go over the cap by 5 million to keep their players then they have to also pay 5 million to the 29 other teams with more going to worst team and less to the next worse team and so on. Another variation could be to increase the cap by the same amount for the other 29 teams rather than give them cash that some teams won't spend on players. So, in this case lets say the cap is 70 million and the Flyers go over the cap by 6 million. The Sabre's cap goes up to 70.7 million, Toronto 70.5, Edm 70.2 (i didn't crunch numbers but you get the idea). The Flyers still have to pay 6 million bucks to the league in addition to the players salaries of coarse. So, it wouldn't be chump change and it gives free cap space for other teams to use to "woo" UFA's and re-sign good players. And teams who are willing to pay the penalty and give their opposition the money/or extra cap space get to do it... Just spit balling...
  2. In short, YES. The fact that Berube / Hextall sent every player a letter to explain their expectations on conditioning is encouraging.
  3. July 3rd and the goal tender controversy starts...
  4. Fascinating. Could they have made it anymore confusing? But it does clear things up a bit.
  5. Well, at least we started a new tradition of G doing something crazy each summer.
  6. OK, that I can agree with. LOL. But the amateur kinda thing makes it fun to watch. Right or wrong, it's funny.
  7. I get what your saying... No argument. Just that it really isn't any worse than your getting anywhere else. My home office is indeed in a spare bedroom so I'm not gonna condemn them for wherever their little studios are. We all make do with what we have. Look at it this way, Eklund is the one with a national web site and pod cast and we are the ones making fun of him. Given my choice, I'll take the INTER-national web site. He's just ridiculous at times but he has the success at it, not me.
  8. Actually, they are interesting casts. I know and know and know Eklund is an easy target. The only thing that disturbs me is the R2D2 model in the background, though everyone has to have a hobby... The guy isn't as bad as everyone says.
  9. http://www.hockeybuzz.com/blog/Ryan-Wilson/Another-Step-Closer-To-Pierre-McGuire-NHL-General-Manager/177/60343 ....for no other purpose than I wouldn't have to see that walking penis on TV anymore. And he would implode the Penguins... God, I hope this Happens!
  10. I'd keep Emery and Hall for another year...
  11. Your numbers seem right. Everyone is saying the Flyers are cap tight and they are but there would be allot of extra room if they could move VLC and not resign Downie and Kimo...
  12. (and somewhere, in a dark cramped room, Buffalo Rick cries himself to sleep)
