Hoss Posted November 26, 2013 Report Posted November 26, 2013 Reports are that this deal alone will raise the Cap by roughly 3million for next year. Of course these are estimates but still something to consider. It's for the year after next, not next season. Quote

Campy Posted November 26, 2013 Report Posted November 26, 2013 Richie Dunn gets no bold love from you? I saw the name and thought it sounded familiar - he was an Amerk, wasn't he? Guy had at least 4 concussions; cut 'im some slack. :P :clapping: ...and I'm just looking for a league to sue so I can retire in the lap of luxury! Heh, Seth Jones with the fro and the five-necked guitar. How could so many professional athletes be so totally devoid of rhythm? I have that CD and I dig TSO (and Savatage), but that song has been ruined by the gotta go getta Garmin xmas commercials. It's all I think of when I hear it. Bastards... Quote
Weave Posted November 26, 2013 Report Posted November 26, 2013 Rinne is KILLING my fantasy team.. Killing it, He was my 1st round pick. I've got another great goaltender so I'm Ok there but the opportunity cost of grabbing Rinne was an elite scoring forward that I don't have and sorely need. Quote
shrader Posted November 26, 2013 Report Posted November 26, 2013 Heh, Seth Jones with the fro and the five-necked guitar. Thank god they didn't give him a bass. Quote

JJFIVEOH Posted November 26, 2013 Report Posted November 26, 2013 guessing none. I would think Bob left off that being canadian english language broadcast rights I heard this one this morning. I'd imagine most of the hockey people at TSN will quickly find jobs with Rogers. In a year or two I'm going to have to find a new webpage for all my hockey news. OK, thanks. I hadn't originally had all the details, I thought they were talking more along the lines of having exclusive broadcasting rights all throughout the NHL, similar to what DirectTV has with teh NFL. That didn't make much sense to me. Quote
dudacek Posted November 27, 2013 Report Posted November 27, 2013 TSN covers the NHL better than anyone. Better news coverage, better game production. I hope Sportsnet can poach some of their talent because the Sportsnet product right now is clearly inferior. Quote

26CornerBlitz Posted November 27, 2013 Report Posted November 27, 2013 Class-action suit against NHL grows to more than 200 players A class-action lawsuit filed in a Washington DC court against the NHL listing 10 plaintiffs has grown exponentially in a matter of days and doesn't show any signs of slowing down. The suit, which claims the NHL was negligent in protecting players from concussions and withheld some information about the dangers of concussions, promised to be a big deal that would only get bigger. It was a long time coming, especially after a similar suit in the NFL resulted in a settlement between the thousands of former players and the league. Now according to former NFL linebacker-turned injury lawyer Mel Owens says that the list of plaintiffs on the class-action suit has grown to more than 200 and is only on the rise. Quote
IKnowPhysics Posted November 27, 2013 Report Posted November 27, 2013 (edited) TSN losing Canadian national TV rights (1998-2002) only bolstered TSN's efforts to be THE source of NHL news, says Bob McKenzie on twitter. I don't know if they can (read: will determine it's business-prudent to) keep it going. TSN's been great, I'd hate for them to drop the ball or concede that the ball has been stripped from them. New deal goes for the next 12+ years. Edited November 27, 2013 by IKnowPhysics Quote

Hoss Posted November 28, 2013 Report Posted November 28, 2013 Meh. 2 minutes is enough for that. They only showed one angle of it an you couldn't really see it. But based on his recent history, expect a strong reaction from the league. At least a call. Quote
