Then the Bruins would have to be penalized too. Can't help they were both injured by plays in the games. Pronger took a high stick and Savard got leveled by cook.

Good point. Just seems like the league has an issue to address in having the cap hits hanging indefinitely. It forces your GM into awkward positions trying to manage a "temporary" cap number until the LTIR kicks in.

So apparently, Eklund has Lupul on the move. Any chance he could be traded for Pronger again?

It's your right if you choose to exercise it.

By the way, I like you a lot more now that I did when you first came on here, for whatever that's worth.

You may be right. But I'd like some time in the AHL to prove that to his coaches before we just throw him in the deep end.

I wouldn't cry if he went to the ahl. but 4 years of college is like 2 years of jr"s plus a year of ahl in terms of development. he dominated in sr year.

When am I not?

I had a kid and turned 31. I'm officially allowed to be a cranky old man.

Man, has the bar dropped. 31 is the new 50 I guess.

He only played 3 years of college. What's that equate to?

I think the should be some leeway in that if a player has a career ending injury they can retire and not stay on the cap. I am pretty sure both would still be playing if not for the plays. Savard was a cheapshot and not Bruins have to keep playing the LTIR schell game. Pringer was a high stick. Actually i think both guys were injured on penalty calls. So I think there should be some discussion on the topic.

Well thank you. Maybe it's because we agreed on some recent things. I am sure you can hate me in a couple weeks when I like some signing and you think it is awful.
