I dunno how possible a real fantasy draft is, but some teams are gonna have a huge advantage in attracting players. Friends trying to stick together, or finally play together, the maneuvering in trying to determine appropriate salaries, etc. It'd be madness.

I kinda want it to happen!

So pretty much everyone will not sign with Toronto.

The final four games of Flyers-Bruins 2010 is on NHLN for the next eight hours. Sadly, winning that series is the best thing Philly have done in the 20 years I've been a fan.

That series is certainly up there. This year's Pens series was pretty special too, along with a few scattered Devs, Toronto, and Buffalo series over the last couple decades. Plus there was the run in '97 that ended in disaster.

That series would still sting if the Bruins hadn't made up for it in the most perfect way imaginable the very next season. I can look at it now a bit more objectively and see that it was great and very evenly-matched series.

Some people attach the blame to who used the mechanism for the work stoppage - in this case... The nhl is the one locking out

That and fans never look at fine details like how the nhl players earn 14% more per dollar than nba or nfl players or almost 36% more per dollar than MLB players

Like once people clearly see what's happening... Then the blame becomes appropriately placed (barring any mental aberration)

To clarify, where are you getting these numbers from? Only solid source I can find is Forbes which lists these numbers.

1) NBA: $5.15 million
2) MLB: $3.2 million
3) NHL: $2.4 million
4) NFL: $1.9 million

http://www.forbes.com/sites/montebu...es-in-the-four-major-american-sports-leagues/

Then I imagine the number of players that a team can have on a roster in a certain sport plays a role. Especially with NFL and maybe the MLB? And the number of games, obviously.

That site doesn't load for me. You meant theahl.com right? No reported attack warning here.

I said per dollar, not average salary

Meaning every dollar of revenue, there is a higher allocation towards the players than any other league

Holy dog shit Texas? Only steers and queers come from Texas Private Cowboy and you don't much look like a steer to me so that kinda narrows it down. Do you suck dicks?

The best ad campaign the NHL ever aired. I fucking love those spots. My friends and I to this day quote those while we play roller hockey or NHL xx on Live.

My two favorite are...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8lCl6jGMJJY

"HE'S ONLY 5'6"!! YOU'RE PRACTICALLY 5'6"!!!"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ySjUgBSA80g

"His strong skating and steeck handling" "Learn how to made a keeck save!"

And special appearance by Jim Gaffigan!

I guess Rogers and Bell better refuse to provide cable services to the Leafs players.

EDIT: Although that might be a favor to the players...

Best yoda post ever (I still hate you) , the city is total shit and gets praised for no reason at all. City actually smells...you're left wondering if you're in a 3rd World country. You try to get culture and all you get are Subway's and Arby's - note to you 'Nuckleheads - those places exisit outside your overated city. Dont even own a car if you live there because it will take you 30 minutes to get to your neighbourhood 7-11. Just make the 45 minute walk you stupid ass hipster!

I actually quite like Vancouver the city for the most part other than the ridiculous prices and Surrey. Edmonton however is the biggest steaming, dirty, ugly, grey, desolate piece of shit city I've been to. I'd rather move to Jalalabad.

Does anyone have that Richter commercial where he turns around and cleans the plexiglass covering the net? I always loved that commercial but I can't find it anywhere.

In other Lupul news he went skating at Toronto City Hall tonight, I wonder if anyone recognized him

He should really show up later at night when people play shinny on that ice

That would be kind of cool

He can take everyone to Real Sports after

When do people play shinny? After 11? Don't they close up the rink?
