I only want Cherry back so someone can ask his opinion on LGTBQ in sports and I can watch his head/heart explode on air.

Also it'd be great if Ron Maclean took a long walk off a short pier.

Do you know what Lucic's $500K performance bonus is based on? I'm assuming games played but I can't find it... I'll be interested to see how many games he gets in as a Bruin, in Calgary he should have played less than half the season but Sutter.

No, the arbitrator does some very complicated math and usually comes up with the average +/- a few percent.

Yup, Terry really should have asked for $15m per year

They can try and bury it as best as possible but if the report implicates a player on a Canadian team it's going to blow up regardless.

I guess that leaves Batherson and/or Formenton in Ottawa or Dube in Calgary.

I get it's a common player refrain for hard-balling negotiations but normally they add a "I hope we can get it done" or something

also "my wife and I love the city" and then they move to I don't know, ohio or something

I honestly don't remember what the ads were before the gambling ads. For the Caps like... Ledo Pizza? That car dealership that sounds like a racial slur?

The ads annoy me more because hockey is a poo poo sport to gamble on game to game to begin with and I don't like being reminded it's an option.

I got a lot of boston pizza ads, which while their food isn't good, it's probably not going to potentially ruin my life


Having Gretzky shill for some online gambling ads on my TV sure is something :stare:

I watched Bill Peters "tearful" press conference the other day... had a real "sorry I lost my job being a loving racist" vibe to it.

I'm sure he'll be back in the NHL within a few years.

More than Cale Makar, teams and players are really expecting a massive salary cap increase over the next 8 years. Which isnt wrong, but dang that makes the contract look silly compared to some of the existing long term ones

Makar was underpaid as soon as he signed that contract.. actually hell just looking at it on capfriendly, he got a million dollars in signing bonus, the other 53 million is all base... fire your agent Makar.

Honestly if I had to choose, I'm more worried about the latter years of Kadri's contract than I am about Huberdeau's extension.

I mean he's over paid because Treliving couldn't lose a 3rd 100 point winger in an offseason, but his decline was almost entirely because of the farmer behind the bench last year.. the farmer whose extension just kicked in and is making $8 million over the next 2 years to not coach the Calgary Flames.
