  1. Teams can elect to charge salary bonuses to the season in which they were earned if they are under the cap by at least the amount of the bonus. If that would put them over the cap, the team must elect to take the cap hit the following season.
  2. .68 pts a game for both Flip & Weiss over that period & Weiss managed to do that while playing center. The only reason Flip did is that we was switched to the wing. Flip can't carry a line offensively as a center where Weiss can.
  3. Capgeek is wrong then. Bonuses from one year don't impact the salary cap until the year after.
  4. Weiss might be up next: Helene St. James ‏@HeleneStJames1m #RedWings are working on deal with C Stephen Weiss.
  5. Don't forget too that the bonus money won't impact the 2013-14 season. If hit, they would apply to 2014-15.

    Horton looking 6m for 5/6 years

    From the years/dollars thrown around, it doesn't look like it. And from all appearances, he's heading to C'bus.
  7. Last I've seen is that the Wings have increased their offer to a 3 year deal but Dallas is offering more money.

    Brunner Contract Talks

    I do believe his agent was pretty up front on the fact that they did want to go to market but they would loop back with Kenny to match/beat offers.

    Wings in on Alfredsson

    Have a feeling the organization is taking the approach of seeing who plays their way onto the roster in camp & will make adjustments (trades, waivers) before the start of the season. I would think the bubble players would be the Eaves, Emmertons, Tootoos, Tatars, Samuelssons, etc. FYI: Nick Kypreos ‏@RealKyper1m Now a domino game. #Stars offer better for Dan Cleary than #Redwings. Det step up or save the cash for #Panthers Stephen Weiss offer.

    Wings in on Alfredsson

    Supposedly it's down to Dallas & Detroit for Cleary. More rumors on the question of why Alfie's leaving Ottawa: Helene St. James ‏@HeleneStJames24s Why is Daniel Alfredsson leaving the only team he's known, Ottawa? Hearing Senators low-balled him.

    Wings in on Alfredsson

    Nick Kypreos ‏@RealKyper4m Told details still need to be completed after 12 but Alfie expected to sign 1 yr deal with #Redwings. Also expected to come in less than 6m

    Brunner Contract Talks

    It's been widely speculated that the GM in question was Dean Lombardi in LA.
  13. Holmgren's gotta be banking on that salary cap really going up the next few years since he's outta compliance buyouts already.
  14. If he leaves for a payday, I will only refer to Flip as Marty Lapointe 2.0 from here on out.

    Wings in on Alfredsson

    And at 40, his 26 points this past season would have tied him w/ Brunner for the 4th highest scoring forward on the team with a fairly sizable drop to the next in line which was Flip with 17. Edit: That said, I really don't see him playing anywhere other than with the Sens.

    Briere to habs 2 yrs 8 million

    According to Helene St. James, Cleary's got up to a dozen teams interested in signing him. Maybe Nill will grab him to play with his buddy Horcoff when that trade's final. On the Briere front, very glad that Kenny stayed away based on that cap hit. Well, one of the reasons I'm glad he stayed away.
  17. Looks like Nill's not done either: Darren Dreger ‏@DarrenDreger9m Oilers-Stars still working on Horcoff trade. Hearing defenseman Philip Larsen and a 7th to Oil. Could be more going to Dallas. #TSN

    Briere to habs 2 yrs 8 million

    Now I would call it official: Canadiens Montréal ‏@CanadiensMTL14m Canadiens have agreed to a 2-year deal with forward Daniel Brière.

    Briere to habs 2 yrs 8 million

    Not done yet according to LeBrun: Pierre LeBrun ‏@Real_ESPNLeBrun12m Briere via text says nothing done yet Pierre LeBrun ‏@Real_ESPNLeBrun11m Briere hasn't made his choice yet.

    Zach Nastasiuk is the only righty the Wings grabbed.

    Edler is on the block?

    Unless they get him to waive his no trade clause, he's off the market now. NTC went into effect at midnight EDT July 1st by all reports.

    Just as long as he doesn't turn out to be a Hampussy (Sorry, it's too easy but I had to do it)

    Red Wings select RW Anthony Mantha 20th Overall

    I believe the guy to Kenny's left is Joe McDonnell, Director of Amateur Scouting, and to Drapes' right is Ryan Martin. I would think the guy next to McDonnell is another scout, just don't know which one.

    Canucks trade Schneider to Devils for 9th overall pick

    And here I was really looking forward to seeing Torts respond to media questions about his handling of the goal tending situation between those 2 all next season. Way to go & ruin all the fun Gillis!
