    Can someone explain the wings salary cap

    This is a good analysis, and welcome, everyone, to the boards

    Vancouver to play 14 straight road games.

    haha I'm assuming they need the time before and the time after to prepare the arena for Olympic stuff, so the GM place will be unavailable for hockey.

    What if Dallas Drake played 1 more season

    God forbid the forums stay active

    SCHEDULE for 2009-2010

    I'm counting 12 back-to-back games. Does that seem a little high?

    Forsberg?

    Forsberg is definitely done, and if he did want to come back, I would be worried about injury issues over an 82 game grind/playoffs. Holland could very well be throwing his money away instead of investing it in Forsberg. No, our team isn't desperate enough to gamble on a guy like him. All we need is a third line guy who can chip in physically and on the score sheet.

    Observations on Callahan's Skill

    Can you imagine how our lineup would've looked precap with Lidstrom, Chelios, Fischer, and Konstantinov?

    I love my summer job. I sometimes love my August-May job, but my boss is driving me insane. I enjoy volunteering. The person below me will find an excuse to use this in context:

    Eklund reporting on Sundin

    At 2.5M or so, I would feel comfortable knowing Holland would be getting his money's worth.

    No matter how good of an idea it is, it will most likely die. I like to think I've had some pretty creative opportunities to allow the water cooler to grow (sometimes these simple response games are a bit repetitive for my taste), but they're all buried now. Start the thread and see what happens. I'll try my best to keep it alive, but its a team effort. The person below me will spend more time in the water cooler than last year during the regular season

    thank you Directly kill an innocent human to save 20 others, or don't kill anyone but in doing so allow 20 people to die.

    It makes you wonder whether the RFA mail fiasco was screwed up intentionally so they have a viable reason to replace Tallon.

    Question about salary cap

    I believe if a player signs a contract after the age of 35, then the salary will count against the cap (Kris Draper falls in this category). If a player signs a contract prior to 35, they can retire without their caphit affecting the team.

    Chicago Signs Mark Cullen

    How's their cap looking? Last I checked they were about 80 million over it.

    NHL asks IIHF, KHL to negate Hudler's KHL Contract

    That isn't really the best-case scenario because the Wings are crippled from making any acquisitions until they know whether Hudler is going to be a Wings or not. If they sign someone now, then its decided Hudler is a Wing, Holland suddenly finds himself over the cap.
