If Dallas six guys with COVID, shouldn’t they have at least 30 other guys available to ice a team? And where does it say they need 20? They’d be at a disadvantage over time, but they can compete with 15. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt Posted January 9, 2021 Report Share Posted January 9, 2021 The Rangers’ Anthony DeAngelo always needs the drama. He seems like a very annoying person to be around. https://ca.sports.yahoo.com/news/rangers-tony-de-angelo-throws-tantrum-after-twitter-bans-donald-trump-013126739.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the CBA. 😉 (Yes, in an emergency they can go under that, but doubt a week's worth of notice that the roster will miss guys they'd rather have playing in place of their taxi squad (or even lesser skilled) players would or should count as an "emergency.")

LTS Posted January 10, 2021 Report Share Posted January 10, 2021 12 hours ago, Shootica said: I had the same thought. But I'd imagine their TV partners would be throwing fits over forfeited games. Lost revenues would make that a last, last resort. Sure, but if you look at schedules I'm not sure where the openings are to fit in any other games without trying 3 games in 3 days, etc. Double-header? One game played at 10am and another at 7pm? The 10am isn't going to due the broadcast viewership much good. hard to say all around. To me they call up the next players and go. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I though you couldn’t have a salary for one year be less than half of the highest year. I could be just misremembering though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I though you couldn’t have a salary for one year be less than half of the highest year. I could be just misremembering though. You're close. For non-front loaded contracts, the 2nd year can't be more than twice the 1st year salary, and subsequent raises can't be greater than the smaller of those 2 years' salaries. This meets those conditions. (And decreases in subsequent years couldn't be more than 50% of the lower of those 1st 2 years' salaries. Not relevant to this situation, but included for completeness.) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In this case, 120% of the AAV is $8.4MM so that will represent his qualifier in the 2023 offseason." 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either that, or he wasn't particularly good at it. 😉 Not being in the top 9 in NHL history in ENG proves your point? Satan is at or near the top in that category in Sabres history. So much so that he was ridiculed for it by Rob Ray when Satan returned to Buffalo — because that's when Miro would bust his hump to score a goal, or something. Makes no sense. You don't score 238 goals for one team in a dead puck era by being a lazy bum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
