And is that the soonest we can hear about what happens with Hossa, etc.? THANKS in advance. This? From nhlscap dot com. 3. "What is the Upper Limit and Lower Limit for 2009-10?" I have no idea - and neither does anyone else. We'll all find out somewhere around June 27, when the league makes the official announcement. My guess at the moment is that the Upper Limit and Lower Limit remain near what they currently are: -- The Upper Limit: $56,700,000 -- The Lower Limit: $40,700,000 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zata20 4 Report post Posted June 15, 2009 (edited) If it is really June 27 when they make the official announcement, that is retarded. They should make an announcement a week after the finals so the GM's can further negotiate with their own free agents. Edited June 15, 2009 by zata20 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
