GDT Preseason: Sabres @ Blue Jackets 9/28/2022, 7pm, Sabres.com and WGR
Taro T replied to LGR4GM's topic in The Aud Club
What better way to see if he'll be able to handle TB or the B's top line than by artificially creating a similar mismatch. 3D chess, my friend, 3D chess. 😉 -

Yep. Guess we'll get to see what Comrie's made of. Of course, he will have the penciled in #6 & #8 D in front of him, so he's got that going for him, which is nice. He'll also have a top 6 W, a 3rd line C/W, & the Sabres top 2 rookies not named Power. Like said above, guess we'll get to see what Comrie's made of. Need this one to keep the 104-0 dream alive. 😉 -

NHL Salary Cap Increasing Quicker Then Anticipated?
Taro T replied to Brawndo's topic in The Aud Club
Umm, until 2Q22 anytime we had 2 Q's of negative growth it was called a recession. Call it what you want, but, we're there. -

Now Rousek robbed. And finally a goal by Tuch. -

Sabres came close to getting the lead back but were thwarted by a post & a solid save. And ANOTHER post. -

True, but it should be a very easy switch to let the viewer hear the in rink audio. Guess for whatever reason they don't want to do that. Maybe afraid they'll lose clicks to the video? Which seems a strange concern because WE'RE ALREADY ON THE SABRES WEBSITE. -

Yes, when the radio feed goes to commercial they mute the feed. They also appear to mute the feed during the intermission. -

How hard would it be to switch the sound source during intermission from the muted radio feed to the video board sound? -

Interesting. Watching on a laptop so can't really see the details. Will check 'em out later. 🍺 -

He's 'meh' for TV - ball park the same quality as Gurtler's 1st attempt at PbP. But he absolutely should not be simulcast onto the radio. He's awful for that medium. -

Konecny ties it on a partial break. 1-1. -

Looks like Anderson has new pads. You'd really think it wouldn't be too difficult nor expensive to broadcast the camera feed when the video board goes to graphics of scorers and replays while play is going on. -

Annual expectations thread 2022/23: #19 Peyton Krebs
Taro T replied to dudacek's topic in The Aud Club
It's happened. Like twice. But it has happened. 😉 -
Well the game gets broadcast in at least Buffalo & Ra-cha-cha, and in Ra-cha-cha it's broadcast on the FM classic rock station that also carries Bills games. So, no idea how big of a revenue stream it is but somebody expects it to make money beyond Erie County. Not sure just how many stations carry the Sabres but doubt Ra-cha-cha is the only 2ndary market.

NHL Salary Cap Increasing Quicker Then Anticipated?
Taro T replied to Brawndo's topic in The Aud Club
No, that is exactly as anticipated. Until the players finish making up for the overage of the COVID years, the cap goes up $1MM per year. So next year will be up $1MM again, and then it could go wild after that. As stated in the Girgensons thread, the cap could go up a lot in the '24-'25 season and almost definitely will be significantly higher in '25-'26. IF the cap were to go up more than $1MM next season, it would be going up sooner than expected. -
But the people here (excepting the usual suspects) aren't really doing that IMHO YMMV. It's not a big deal & you're free to post whatever SDS and his moderating team are good with, just not sure of the reason for the point you're making here. Like said earlier, it's no biggie, and if the venting works for you, cool. (That's what most everybody else is doing.) 🍺

Yes, there is more revenue due to Seattle joining. But there are also 23-26 more NHLers sharing the players' share of HRR. Until national TV / internet deals get reworked to include the expanded league footprint, that won't significantly adjust the cap. And ... without having seen the details of the NHL's revenues post-pandemic, so the players may get done repaying the owners sooner, but in the MOU the league & union were expecting the players to be repaying the owners through '23-'24 and possibly '24-'25. As long as they're repaying the owners, the cap will only be going up $1MM/ year. Once that is finished, we'll see a big jump in the cap because the $2-3 MM/yr that we should've been seeing every year hadn't happened. A $10MM bump for '24-'25 would not be out of the question. But until then, the cap will be constricting on the top squads.
