There was a proposal (never acted on) that the league was going to issue a list of divers, in the crazy hope that it would discourage the worst offenders.

I'd be willing to bet a beer that if that list had 50 names, JVR's name would be on it.

Hell, 30 names.

- Atomic Wedgie


I doubt that...

Not saying he doesn't dive, but think about that... not even 1 from each team on average that dives more? Sorry, just not true.

I mean hell the Canucks would cover the first 20 names ...

that, if he playes 60+ games at a high level, and I'm fine with that.

Though, should add that Schneider would have been UFA next summer, so not really same situation.

That would really tighten the screws on the leafs cap especially with kadri being up for a new deal as well

True, but also consider our big ticket guys will all be signed too.

Will have about 11M left of 69M with 13 signed
Cap should push to 74
So about 16M to 10 guys

Most will be third/fourth line guys and bottom d so not as bad as it looks by the numbers.

bottom 5 forwards and bottom 2 D, backup goalie in that group. Those aren't expensive.

Maybe 2 guys of the 10 who will earn more than $1-1.5M per.
if it gets tight, move Lupul, replace with Nylander or Brown $4M+ swing right there

I believe this will be the comparable contract that Berniers agent will cite

Marlies do... Eakins preached Solid two-way play, and have the vets to lead it. Spott does too.

Marlies have the best PK in AHL over last 3 years also (combined, if not each season. Think they were 2nd one year).

That's a damn good start.
