One thing that bothers me about refs
Not related to calls they make is that when the puck is coming around the boards near them, all they do is lift their leg and try not to have it hit them. They make no effort in many cases to get out of the way of players pursuing that puck. It is my opinion that there are too many officials on the ice. I understand that they want to have the ability to control the players in case of a scrum, but why can they not just have off ice officials readily available to step in if needed? The league functioned without any problems with three on ice officials for a long time, more people on the ice who are not playing the game only get in the way.
I go Bananas for Wayne Simmonds.
they tried it at the R@D camp this summer. seemed to work pretty well from what i heard but it will take a while to impliment i presume

Maybe Will Smith should buy the Flyers too. It seems to be working for the 76’ers.
My teams are the Flyers, Phillies and the Steelers. Deal with it.

After watching games lately the Flyers really need to find a top 3 defenseman not a Bryan Allen or Hal Gill. Ryan Suter, Shea Weber or Luke Schenn, someone with some sort of future in a Flyers jersey.

Homer can find ways, Pronger is on IR and chances are JVR or someone with salary is going back in whatever trade we made.
Homer’s running out of loopholes, fast. We have so much money committed to next year it’ll get ugly quick.

And had he simply thought about what might happen down the road more than a few months (maybe a year) and given out some smaller contracts, or less NMC/NTC, had not overpaid for a goalie, he wouldn’t have to work so hard to circumvent the cap.

It’s worse than that, really. Homer’s never really been this close to running out of tagging space, where he has to really worry about this year’s roster moves because we’re close to the cap on next year.

Then why on cap geek is it saying 6 million space next year and traditionally the cap goes up each year. I know thats not counting the potential resigning of Jagr and Carle or Voracek but still 6 million to work with isn’t bad
Actually, it’s terrible. Right now that might mean not signing 2 of those. Remember, the RFAs do not count against that 6.

ahhh, true, I’m saying Homer simply keeps proving he’s got ways to work things, I know it’s bad but he’ll find something. I could easily let Voracek go but Jagr and Carle I’d like to see come back.

IMO contracts we need to rid ourselves of are Shelley, Pronger, Briere mostly, Briere is good but he’s way overpaid. Shelley is a waste of a million when we have Rinaldo and Sestito and even Harry Z is tough

Buying out Briere exacerbates the problem. It would cost half his cap hit for twice as long…and as Briere is worth more than twice his cap hit we’re weakening the team.

thanks, not sure how buying out contracts works. thats why I like the NFL, nothing is guaranteed after the initial guaranteed money is dished out.

But tagging space is a very funny thing. You cant commit more salary to next year than this year’s cap. And you actually have to be careful about it, even to the point that you’re active roster right now isn’t allowed to include people that would put them over next year’s cap because you’re out of tagged space.
This is based on something Bob McKenzie reported a while ago, when the Hawks were in a similar spot:
What we do know, though, is that once tagging room has been exhausted, if the club doesn’t find a way to create more — by dumping more longer term contracts — it can be a restrictive nightmare.You basically have to pre-calculate the cap for the following season before you make roster moves, at least that’s a rough way of putting it, but the LTIR overage only helps you for this year and won’t let you call the player up if they’ll put you over on tagged space.
Let’s say the Hawks have sufficient tagging room to extend Kane, Toews and Keith but that there’s no wiggle room beyond that. What it means is that the Hawks, if they needed to recall a player from the minors for any reason, could not call up any player who has a contract that goes into next season. That would be a CBA violation — you can’t overspend on tagging room — and not permitted by the league.

This isn’t something that’s clear, but rather something I had to heavily research. We’ve never really been this far against the wall, at least not that I’ve know about, where we were in danger of saying “we can’t call up a minor league player in a pinch because we’d go over next year’s cap, even though we have LTIR space for them now”

It’s only a real problem for people who have additional years. Rentals are okay, because they don’t take up tagged space on next year’s cap. To take on guys with additional years on their contract, we have to make sure we get rid of somebody who is also on next year’s cap.

So is my idea of, say, Jagr signing a PTO for camp, then signing a SPC on Day 2 (once Pronger et. al. go to LTIR) a viable option?
At that point, it would depend on what the new CBA defines as cap circumvention… under the current rules, there’s nothing against that.
Jagr would just only be able to sign a 1 year deal again if we want to fit him solely into LTIR money. If he signs a multiyear deal we have to deal with the tagging stuff as it’s defined in the new language.

And if it’s only a rental, I think it’s more stupidity. I can’t see them getting past the second round, so why waste draft picks that could lead to some smaller contracts, and young players who are all playing like vets and will just get better from here on out.

Your case is god awful
The media singlehandedly manufactured a narrative about Richards, Carter and Lupul partying too much, and so obviously their head’s not in the game
His coaches? All of the coaches in the NHL are swapped around until they find a fit somewhere. Stevens is trying things out in LA, Hitchock used to be in CLJ and is now in STL
The coaches may or may not be able to succeed in a given situation. Stevens had a team that eventually went to the Stanley Cup Finals. I’m glad Snider didn’t lose to Stevens
