Hey Zoner, dont forget, we still have our new JR teams to keep us occupied as well. This is great news, hope these greedy players will get back into the game.

lol

But i can sympathize being a NY Rangers fan. Took me my whole life to see them win a cup but let me tell you, ain't nothing like seeing your all time favorite sports team win a championship. Arkan got misty eyed on 6/14/94.


Biggest goal in Rangers history IMHO

so if the cap is like 40 mil the max a player could make is 8 million

for instance the avalanche have sakic and blake signed.

but dont have hedjuk, foote, forsberg, or tangay signed...they wont be able to sign all of them.

The wings will look different because of the trimming of alot of the older players

11 million is gone from hull and hasek..they will dump shanny, hatcher, mcCarty and chelios most likely.

In all the wings will have to trim about 12 million off their payroll, the leafs about 8...so dont think you wont be affected.

I think you will see the wings do just as well. Not many of the big money and older players they had even showed up last playoffs


It will be a fun off season.

The wings will be trimming ALOT MORE then 12 milly.

Cool, I used to like watching the hockey on zee sports channels....I haven't been able to follow the NHL itself for a long while, almost since I stopped playing myself - I didn't really know hugely about it, learned most of the players from playing the EA games religiously....

Nonetheless, I can appreciate hearing good news....

Maybe a little more to make some cap room but their payroll last season they played was 77 million. They got rid of 11 million by dumping hasek and hull.

All player salries will be rolled back 24% so that takes off another 16 million on pay roll leaving them at 50 million dollars...salary cap will be around 38 million

50-12 =38..

But they should take a bit more off to feel out FA's and such.

Kthx.
