NHL proposal to players: 1-reduce players hockey related revenues to 46% from 57 %. 2-10 seasons in NHL before being UFA. 3-contracts limites to 5 years 4-no more salary arbitration. 5- entry-level contract 5 years instead of 3.

Welp, see you guys in 2013-2014!

 

[Cake Boss]

Batman.

Welp, see you guys in 2013-2014!

It's a good time to invest in padlock companies.

 

[SpectreFire]

Welp, see you guys in 2013-2014!

NHL: What do you guys think of us putting our dicks in your buttholes?

 

[Smiley90]

Welp, see you guys in 2013-2014!

Apart from the obvious "wtf every point is awful", what stoos out to me was no more salary arbitration. Wat? What else then? Oo

 

[DopeyFish]

Welp, see you guys in 2013-2014!

Fuck the 10 year UFA and 5 year ELC shit

Should be 4 year ELC, then RFA. After next contract then UFA.

10 years is fucking stupid

 

[Coldnoodle]

5 year entry level contract? LOL GOOD LUCK WITH THAT

Altleast I have tennis.

 

[Dubbedinenglish]

Play without contracts.

 

[CrazedArabMan]

No salary cap, done.

 

[Cake Boss]

I like the 5 year ELC rule lol.

It will only encourage teams to rush their players at 18-19 years old.

It would mean less drafted players get contracts

 

[yankeehater]

Welp, see you guys in 2013-2014!

Yeah I dont see how they get an agreement if that is the leagues starting piont.

 

[Cake Boss]

YOU KNOW NOTHIN JOHN SNOW.

 

[DopeyFish]

YOU KNOW NOTHIN JOHN SNOW.

Also it will kill any goon player jobs - be all about skill skill skill

lol 5 year ELC

 

[Marvie_3]

Welp, see you guys in 2013-2014!

:lol It's called negotiating. You start out with ridiculous demands.

No salary cap, done.

I'd never watch an NHL game again if they got rid of the salary cap.

 

[Razorskin]

In this case, I am

IT'S KNUCKLEPUCK TIME! :fistbump:



Will that shit fly on NeoGAF? Or is it illegal, like on Reddit? I remember there was a guy who was in a competition to get his goalie mask painted and he made a thread here I guess...

Bish?

Bish pls

 

[KingHenrik30]

:lol It's called negotiating. You start out with ridiculous demands.

Let's hope they aren't consulting with Howson then

 

[KernelPanic]

Very few Europeans and no Russians would ever play in the NHL.

 

[Red_Man]

I get that, but this starting point is retarded, it's insulting for the players.

 

[brucewaynegretzky]

Um that's really not THAT bad. I've seen worse. I'd bet Fehr's initial proposal includes 100% revenue sharing, eliminating the cap, and 1-year entry level contracts.

 

[Heretic]

Someone found this CBA document on NHL.com. It's what supposedly being discussed. Anyone care to read it all?

Sorry if old!

Actually it's the old one but I'm sure we can gleen from it.

 

[Razorskin]

I'd love to see the NHL's reaction to that.

 

[Dastardly Jerks]

5 year ELC? That's ridiculous.

 

[bonesmccoy]

I'd never watch an NHL game again if they got rid of the salary cap.

With respect to the NHL's demands, sports radio (thanks Dan Patrick) tells me that each side will list 5-10 non-negotiables, and after that it becomes quid pro quo as they go through the lists.

And when has sports radio been inaccurate I ask you?!

Dude on Montreal sports radio said Gomez + Subban for Bobby Ryan was going to happen 100%, I'm expecting the news to break any hour now.

good idea, just build over the centennial plaza.

That is a fucking mind melting trade on both sides.

 

[Red_Man]

Dude did say that but I posted it as sarcasm, no way that deal goes down.

 

[Dastardly Jerks]

If that deal goes down then I'm getting off this planet.

 

[Acid08]

Definitely, just saying it's wild as hell. My brain would implode if such a trade happened.

 

[CrazedArabMan]

But you live in Australia, isn't that considered a different planet already?

 

[CREMSteve]

Is it October, yet?

 

[KingHenrik30]

Is it December, yet?

More accurate

 

[RC]

We're all screwed.

Doesn't look too bad. Bit tacky with the Habs logo on the top, but I guess that makes sense with where it is. I know nothing of that project, but I'm assuming they're doing something like Maple Leaf Square (condos, "fan friendly" area).

Haven't gotten anything, actually.

 

[Socreges]

Dstrdl, does your sister know where the big jump came from?

 

[Dastardly Jerks]

The responses have been overwhelming. I'm so glad she's going to win it and I'm so grateful to you guys for contributing.

I told her I "helped" her with a campaign, but didn't mention any websites.

I was looking at a thread on Galchenyuk on Hfboards, and peoples predictions for him, and this stat came up, only 5 centers hit 30 goals last season:

Steven Stamkos, 60 goals
Evgeni Malkin, 50 goals
Jason Spezza, 34 goals
John Tavares, 31 goals
Logan Couture, 31 goals

Dunno why, but that seemed to surprise me.

Toews had 29 but he only played in 59 games.

25 wingers had 30+ goals last season. I always thought it was because the snipers and goal scorers were usually wingers while most centers are either twf or playmakers.
