I know Hasek's contract includes performance bonuses that if earned will count on our cap next year. My question is: Does anyone know what exactly the requirements are? This could mean a million dollars extra in cap space possibly so it is important. Is it so many games played, games won, playoff rounds won etc... If it is contingent on making the finals, does it count if he is riding the pine? I cannot find any information on it right now, anyone remember the particulars?

Simple question.

Gloat!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I would say Colorado still is...

Yeah, I just don't want to have to spend 2 million on him doing nothing for us. I am going to send the question in to a few places see if I get a response.

This is fricking dumb to keep bringing this up. IT AINT HAPPENING!! Osgood and Howard next year and the year after that, and prob the year after that as well.

Osgood no question. 1 goal in nearly three games worth of play, with the lack of attack he was a rock on the defensive side. I don't care if he only has two wins. We would not have won if we kept Hasek in there.

Thursday. Don't quote me on that.

YOU WIN!!!

Yeah... I disagree too. I just started two threads to give everyone a chance to say pick their opponent. It was nearly disasterous picking our first round opponent so let's go again!!

QFT

We definately want the AVS to be our next opponents so let's hear it for the Sharks!! The Avlanche are the better match up for sure...

We definately want the FLAMES to be our next opponents so let's hear it for the Flames!! The Flames are the better match up for sure...

I disagree. The reason I think the other lines kinda are short on scoring is they continuely put together less the stellar combos. Homer on the second line may spark Cleary and Val. Everyone can score, they just need to find that perfect ratio. Franzen has been more effective even strength with the Twins then Homer has been. Homer is most effective when the shots come from the point, and that happens most often on the PP and on the lower lines. Zetter and Pavel don't usually shoot from that far out. Sammy and Cleary do, as does Drapes and Darren. Honestly the way Darren has been shooting better then everyone, just throwing it on the net but not dead on the Goaltender, I would give him some second line time to see what would come of it.

I put on my gordie howe sweater for ot and they score, so you can thank me. lol. It's thanks all around i guess.

We had a deal on the table with this jerk and he decided to go for more money in Nashville. Go to Hell JP, I liked you now I hate you.

What exactly is unreliable, I cited a free press online article. That is a reliable source. Check the citations man.

There is precidence in other sports to greatly esclate the fines, especally when they are proven to be paid by someone other then who the fine is place upon.

A little more...

I made a few changes to wikipedia, an update. Check out the section about twirling.... Did my part, time to do more.

Times like this make me wish I was some super rich company CEO. You know for a fact if someone like Bud Light or whatever threatened to pull marketing for this it would go away. What hypocrits, using the octupus to pimp Vs hockey games but limiting a tradition.

Uh Hockey is God, don't they know that?

You knwo what will work... If we get their numbers and call them. Anyone in the league, numbers lets get them. I have done this before with NFL officals and such. Not great results but at least they get annoyed.

Funny, I said that exact thing about a month ago. Even suggested playing Everything Zen by Bush when he scores. It got shot down. Is it time yet for me to make a thread where everyone can take turns saying I was right from day one about this kid? He should be on the first line period! He is out working everyone on the ice. I love to see him go into the corners and fight for the puck, he doesn't just take the puck away like Pavel, he has to scrap.

I say we just do something better. We need to steal his cell phone, just for a day or so. Txt message some sexual messages to some male underling at the NHL office, then replace the phone. Out him and make him resign. Either that or we could just pay whatever stupid fine there is. BTW WTF So you can hire Mascots and cheerleaders to incite fans but not a rink manager???? Problem solved, just give Al another paycheck for being a mascot. GO TO HELL GARY. Side story, when the lock out ended I was at the joe with a Fire Bettman Sign. The ushers tore it down....
