I'm pretty excited to see Jagr suit up for the Flames. Hoping he can do for Bennett what he did for Huberdeau and Barkov in Florida.

Gaudreau - Monahan - Ferland
Tkachuk - Backlund - Frolik
Versteeg - Bennett - Jagr

Pretty happy with that top nine. All we have to do is make some room for Jankowski on the fourth line - there was talk of a Brouwer trade yesterday, so we'll see if that pans out.

why would the best player from his draft class play on the 4th line

I hate everything he's done to gently caress up the Habs and I'm probably the first guy on the fire bergevin train but the answer is Ken Holland

Make something similar to escrow that calculates the effective tax rate of each city and reimburses or takes away based off the city the player plays in?

It's a factor for bigger ticket guys, but from the Club side not necessarily the player side. Stamkos took a significantly smaller contract in Tampa that was worth somewhere around what it was in Toronto assuming he pays his taxes.

In which both teams have the same salary cap. There lies my issue.

It looks like the Habs could use some veteran d. Please take one (1) Stanley Cup winner Ron Hainsey to help you on your troubles. Please.

No thanks we had him already


Not only that, but they drafted him in the first round and completely hosed up his development to the point where he was almost out of the league until another team took him off the trash heap and made him into an nhl player

I don't know how normal it is but my hotel at Pittsburgh this year for game 5 of the SCF was cheap as gently caress. It was only 100$ a day for a stay at the Westin which was right downtown. Between that and the ticket itself only being like 250$ it was pretty cheap all in all for a Cup finals game.

And it helps that that was the best game I've personally been to :toot:. If you can afford to go to a finals game and get the chance definitely do it. The atmosphere at them is fuckin' awesome.
