Hoss Posted April 27, 2015 Report Posted April 27, 2015 I don't get why you'd connect not for profit with the need to disclose salaries. Nonprofits have to provide salaries for relevant employees upon request. The NHL is a nonprofit. Quote
Brawndo Posted April 27, 2015 Report Posted April 27, 2015 Chicago still might be in cap trouble. They have 13 players under contract for next year and only 8.4 million in space. They need to sign Kruger and Saad and only have three NHL D Men under contract. Sharp or Hossa might be available. Quote

Hoss Posted April 27, 2015 Report Posted April 27, 2015 (edited) Relevant? I would assume the players would be, as would any executives. Something like a social media manager wouldn't be. But the post you responded to posed a question that kind of takes down my argument: the players would be considered team employees, right? So they may not be subject to the league's nonprofit requirement.s Edited April 27, 2015 by Hoss Quote

They need to sign Kruger and Saad and only have three NHL D Men under contract. Sharp or Hossa might be available. Very interested in Saad, but i can't see them letting their future go, Hossa or sharp are more likely. Would love the idea of hossa on our top line with eichel and kane though. But seeing his age i wouldn't give a 1st rounder for him. Quote
Drunkard Posted April 27, 2015 Report Posted April 27, 2015 Hossa seems to be aging like fine wine but he's bound to hit the wall eventually. He's already 36 and is under contract until 20-21. If he retired early though wouldn't the bulk of his salary cap recapture actually fall on Chicago though, since they signed him to his contract? If that's the case, I'd be willing to take a chance on him now and if he decides to retire make Chicago give up something good to minimize the cap recapture penalty just before he retires. Quote
Iron Crotch Posted April 27, 2015 Report Posted April 27, 2015 Very interested in Saad, but i can't see them letting their future go, Hossa or sharp are more likely. Would love the idea of hossa on our top line with eichel and kane though. But seeing his age i wouldn't give a 1st rounder for him. They'll let Sharp go. Saad is a future star. Hossa is still playing at a very high level on the first line with Toews. Bickell is another guy they might send packing. Quote
Hoss Posted April 27, 2015 Report Posted April 27, 2015 They'll let Sharp go. Saad is a future star. Hossa is still playing at a very high level on the first line with Toews. Bickell is another guy they might send packing. Agreed. The only thing I'd point out is that Hossa doesn't have a NTC. Bickell has a limited one and Sharp has a full NMC. Those gets waived all the time, but it might not get waived to come here. Hasn't Hossa said he would retire before playing elsewhere? Seems like he wants to just keep running with Chicago before going home. Quote
Iron Crotch Posted April 27, 2015 Report Posted April 27, 2015 Bickell is the least productive player of the above, but he has size and is younger than the others. Sharp and Hossa are older, but still productive, although Sharp fell off this year. I think Sharp relies on talented linemates whereas Hossa has the talent to create on his own (e.g. screaming down the right wing then cutting into the slot). On another note, Brad Richards has been unimpressive with the Hawks. I think he'll be elsewhere next year. Quote
MattPie Posted April 27, 2015 Report Posted April 27, 2015 The Flyers response to picking up the Penguins was great :lol: The Stars have a great media team, whoever does their jumbotron is hilarious Given the location, leaving Walker out is a travesty. Quote
woods-racer Posted April 27, 2015 Report Posted April 27, 2015 No One disses Chuck Norris and walks the same ever again. Everyone in Texas knows this to be fact. To be put on a list with The Pink Ranger, might also mean the loss of use of a hand.... Quote

Interesting is right. The afro is Savard. Rammer is beside Savard. In the foreground you can see Seiling and Smith and I'm not sure. Quote
tom webster Posted April 27, 2015 Report Posted April 27, 2015 Interesting is right. The afro is Savard. Rammer is beside Savard. In the foreground you can see Seiling and Smith and I'm not sure. Believe the other player is Gary McAdam Quote

Stoner Posted April 27, 2015 Report Posted April 27, 2015 He coached for more than a few months. He replaced Floyd Smith after the 76-77 season and coached until the Monday Massacre when he and Punch were let go early in 78-79. Quote

French Collection Posted April 27, 2015 Report Posted April 27, 2015 Pronovost is the great uncle of Wings prospect Anthony Mantha. Quote

shrader Posted April 28, 2015 Report Posted April 28, 2015 Interesting that they chose a photo of him on the Sabres bench. Is that Gil peaking out from behind that afro? Does the picture also have a captain talking about Adam Wainwright when you go to the page too? Quote
Eleven Posted April 28, 2015 Report Posted April 28, 2015 Does the picture also have a captain talking about Adam Wainwright when you go to the page too? "Cardinals pitcher Adam Wainwright tore his Achilles on Saturday. (Denis Broduer/Getty Images)" Was just about to post about this. I just barely remember Pronovost as a coach. Quote
