Taro T Posted April 10, 2016 Report Share Posted April 10, 2016 I wonder if the Red wings can trade a player and have a team take some of datsyuk's salary Nope. They take the cap hit "regardless of whether, or where, the Player is playing" except the 1st $100k wouldn't count towards the cap if he was in Grand Rapids. They are hosed if he does, in fact, go back to Russia. That sucks for the Wings. And, to Woody, not without dumping some contracts. That said, Detroit could trade the contract to a budget team. Gets them over the cap floor without spending real money. No, they can't. They are hosed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drunkard Posted April 10, 2016 Report Share Posted April 10, 2016 (edited) I wonder if the Red wings can trade a player and have a team take some of datsyuk's salary I'd take his whole contract for their best LHD prospect although I'm not familiar with their farm system.

WildCard Posted April 10, 2016 Report Share Posted April 10, 2016 (edited) Wings lose Datsyuk and with it, their top center and are saddled with a big cap hit. Bruins miss the playoffs in spectacular fashion and now want to fire their most successful coach in franchise history. TB's top prospect hates them, their franchise center may very well likely leave them, and they just lost him and Johnson for the playoffs. Toronto sucks Montreal completely fell apart without one player; are rumored to trade their franchise defenseman, and are clinging to dreams of Price returning and Pac and Gal being enough offense to win again Florida is awesome, and set for a long time it looks like So, I ask you, how does our division look?

If Stamkos bolts, it's going to be Florida, us, and Toronto as the undisputed best teams in the division for an extended run. Yes, Toronto.

Florida will never get any credit no matter what they do, and that's OK. His cap hit remains behind though :D oops guess I was wrong, philly plays the caps. Islanders get to play the panthers :p Not yet, if the Islanders beat Philly tonight they slide up to play the Pens and the Panthers play the Rangers.

Tondas Posted April 10, 2016 Report Share Posted April 10, 2016 Brawndo called it already, but Brian Murray is officially replaced Brian Murray is a tough SOB. He's fighting a good fight against his illness. I remember him and Lindy going at it between the benches at the "go out and run' em" game. Seems like only yesterday.
