elvis15 Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 Great guy but needs to accept the end of his playing career. Could bring so much as a coach/mentor....ughh Well, one way or the other he's going to find out f he can still play at level good enough for the NHL. He'll have his answer by the end of the 25 games I'd suspect. Take it from a guy who knows injuries... HE's DONE! Judging from your past threads, I will decline to take it from you.

Yeah but it's like watching a good friend repeatedly get off the mat in a fight everyone but him knows he's losing. It's ugly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drouin Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 Deserves it, I hope he plays in the NHL at least one more season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
penaltykiller Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 I was just signing in to see if anyone had heard anything about Manny and this was there. Thanks for the info. I hope he is okay to play and gets a contract. He has had a really hard few years. Best of luck!! Getting payed millions to do what you love is really hard, yeah. Can't believe people feel sympathy for these players who make more in one year than this whole forum makes in a life time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Per a single day's visit, there are about 1000 visitors on these forums (there are way more users actually active over a longer span) If everyone made about $40,000 a year, by your logic, we would have made $40,000,000 in one year. Now, over a lifetime, you do the math. According to Capgeek Manny has made $12,370,000 over his NHL career before tax, and commission. $40,000,000 in one year > $12,370,000 NHL Career ZING Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strombone1 Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 It's an exagerration. Not sure if you've ever heard of one. ZING He makes $12,370,000 over his career (6 years). That needs to last him till he dies. A family with an income of $40,000 over roughly 42 years (whats the retirement age? 60?) makes $16,800,000. $16,800,000 > $12,370,000 It's hard not to feel sorry.

Now say he say $2,000,000 or more you do the math. The guy is set for life. I think everybody would feel bad about the way his NHL career ended but hard to feel to sorry for him.

Smashian Kassian Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 Good luck to manny. Hopefully he can return to the NHL sometime soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thad Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 I think he'd make a fine 4th line centre/pker in the NHL still. Gillis just cut him short trying to shake up a team that look like it lost its drive after the cup run. I'm a gillis supporter but that wasn't a safety issue, it's not like manny was getting blind sided left and right. I do agree he lost a bit of his touch but I'd take manny over some of the other 4th line C in the league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Del Rio Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 Happy for him...I think he needs this year to show teams he can still play. hopefully playing in the AHL will set him up for next season in the NHL or even this year since it is a pto Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not about the money. It's about being told you can no longer play your chosen sport. If it was about the money, he'd be taking a management job that would pay more than a PTO on the Charlotte Checkers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRAZY_4_NAZZY Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 Class act player...the NHL could use a lot more players like Manny Malhotra. Hope he proves people wrong that he still has what it takes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeremyCuddles Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 Good luck Manny, classy player deserved another shot here but hope he makes his way back to the NHL some where. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ice orca Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 I just hope no AHL goon takes a run at him, i'm not totally convinced he can pick up guys on the periphery. Burr could have destroyed Stall in the preseason game against the rags, dude never knew he was there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeburn Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 Take it from a guy who knows injuries... HE's DONE! Malholtra, Gillis, AV, and the rest of us DID take it from a guy who knows injuries, a team of guys who know injuries in fact - otherwise known as the medical team which cleared Malholtra to resume playing after recovering, then again the next two season starts before Gilils decided looked at the cap math, did some tinkering, and decided the experts - and the player - had to be wrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bloodycanuckleheads Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 Well, sure, he might still be able to play. But he apparently can't see very well out of one eye. So, he could play for years and have no problems - or he could play one shift and miss seeing a puck coming straight at his head at 110mph, which puts him into a coma and later kills him from a brain hemorrhage.
