I don't know!

This has made me question the quality of all the work I've done today.

Yeah and in 10 years, the worst hockey player is making 7 million dollars.
- ThePresident

Even in Europe the average player makes 80k-100k (lower leagues-KHL/Elitserien)

(frank), 80k to work out and play a game...sign me up.

That's what makes it so hilarious.

You read your predictions at the end of the year, scratch your head, and say to yourself, "what the hell was I thinking?"

You can just tell my heart told me to write that about Komisarek - no way my head could have ever thought that.

No way.

Ever.

I was chuckling about Komi.. So many come in with high hopes, and fail.

Whoever's making 700k total over their lifetime should start looking for a better job.

Or... just a job. Period.

I'm looking at some prime property just north of the Demarcation Zone. Great deals over there right now.

Did you see this?

@StapeNewsday
Joshua Ho-Sang was late for the first day of #Isles training camp. He's been sent back to Niagara of the OHL. Camp over for him.

Remember, he was actually the best player available in the draft, but racism took that first overall selection from him!

I'm saying over the course of 10 years, 700k a year...the worst player in the league will have made 7 million dollars total...now lets say over the course of 20 years, 14 million dollars....now relate that to normal human beings that actually have to be good at what they do to receive 100K a year.

I wonder what kind of racism prevented him from getting to camp on time?

Speaking of idiots....

Can we pencil you in for participating in the Official Leafs Nation 2015-16 Season Predictor Thread?

I'm hoping a few trolls regular guests on the Leafs threads chip in their thoughts.

It will be interesting to see which camp is more negative.

Already up:

You have until the puck drops on opening night - then the thread gets locked forever, so you can't change your predictions.

Leafman had a good suggestion: just start your post now, and keep filling it in whenever you have the time.

Absolutely, because at the end of the year, it will be very easy for all of us to evaluate each other's work, and make objective judgements.

Leafman will graciously concede that Dion Phaneuf was well worth his salary.

Dozzer will admit that the Leafs would have been better off keeping Kessel.

Atomic Wedgie will finally realize that Komarov is good value at $3 million a year.

Unholy Goalie will realize that Robby Earl wouldn't have helped the power play.
