Man, I went to cap friendly and tried to put together a team that I think we could reasonably ice this season and after July 1 it's really hard to try and move guys since so many teams have made signings/trade. Probably should've played around with it beforehand to see what it may have potentially looked like. They are over the cap, but will get relief from Horton and Lupul being LTIR ($10.55 million), so they actually have around 8-9 million to spend if they want. I know Horton is on there indefinitely but not sure about Lupul. 30 minutes ago, mackel said: I wonder if Kenny has talked to Jagr yet? 4 years 16 million? I would be annoyed if he didn't at least reach out and maybe offer him a 1 year 1 million contract. That guy's got some freakin' wisdom and can still put up 40+ points. 2 hours ago, LeftWinger said: So I guess they basically traded Hemsky for Radulov... Not a good trade... at all.

I would take him just because he's a Byronic hero that would make this boring team somewhat watchable this season. Plus, he has a chance to break Howe's record for games played this season. 1 Wingnut1989 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PavelValerievichDatsyuk 1,935 Report post Posted July 4, 2017 Good deal for the Avs. I fear that Yakupov going to another struggling team might not be the best for him, but who knows - maybe it's a low pressure situation where he can figure things out. 2 kliq and krsmith17 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I thought it'd be more than that, honestly. That's still a crapload of players, and shows the absurd salary difference between the two leagues. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DickieDunn 2,571 Report post Posted July 5, 2017 NBA teams pay a dozen payers at any given time and the league makes more money. NHL rosters are 23 players and have less revenue. 2 PavelValerievichDatsyuk and krsmith17 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AtlantaHotWings 983 Report post Posted July 5, 2017 I am sure league revenue is helped by things like this that was signed in 2014 for a 9 year deal http://deadspin.com/what-the-nbas-insane-new-tv-deal-means-for-the-league-a-1642926274 2.6 BILLION per year starting last year which ain't chump change.
