Most of it will. Only 1.075M can be buried in the minors so anything above will count against the cap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They saw Sekeres parked outside their home for weeks - and did the right thing to protect their family. 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Provost Posted June 20, 2019 Author Share Posted June 20, 2019 29 minutes ago, Conscience said: Before we put this all on Eriksson having a bad attitude, it is entirely possible at his exit interviews that the team said they wanted to move on from him. (the fact they want to move on is on Eriksson’s performance... but maybe not his attitude). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After LE's bonus is paid. I hear the Canucks have hired a real estate agent in Toronto. They're looking to buy one of those islands in the Robidas archipelago. Of course, we have islands here in British Columbia, but something about those Robidas islands that fall off the CBA radar.

Can't with an NHL contract. They have an agreement. The agreement with the KHL excludes this as well. Frankly if the only option is to trade him for a worse contract than don't trade him. If he doesn't report that is best case scenario.He would just get suspended. If he didn't show up I wonder if Nucks could sue for return of signing bonus. Wouldn't take Lucic, that contract is significantly worse. I would absolutely take on big one or two year contract though. Have used the examples of Perry and Ryan before Perry was bought out. If he took the Kovalchuck route, we would be on the hook for cap recapture I believe. Edited June 20, 2019 by DrJockitch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
