Briere says they want to focus on getting him on the ice. An extension is coming, but that will happen in a bit, and he doesn't expect any issues.

Fedotov playing is up to Torts.

Fedotov on the ice for practice. Very confident he is getting the BUF or CLB game. I am fascinated to watch the extremely tall goalie play for any team. I did kind of wish the Flyers would have acquired Ben Bishop back in the day.

Fedotov on the team, Sandstrom back at LHV. No adjustment, get right in there!

They traded a guy that Torts refused to give a chance for a guy who Torts was destined to hate.

Or just 2 guys that suck?

I don’t know why Danny wasted his time

It's just a regular ELC, but they didn't bring him over here just to demote him to AHL for the last two weeks of the season. That would drop his pro-rated salary from $832,500 down to $70,000.

I noticed that, he must have wanted to show Fedotov a picture of him breaking the Russian player ankle in 1972.

I have to think that the plan is to re sign him. Otherwise, don’t even bother bringing him over.

Danny: "Ivan, you see this old man to my left? He hates Russians. He hurts Russians. So if you don't play well and don't re-sign with us, well... there's no nice way to say this... he's gonna be paying you a visit. And he won't be as gentle as the FSB was with you."

Clarke: * evil smile *

Fedotov: "!"

Glad to see Clarkie in the locker room again. Hopefully some other alumni are around too and there is open discussion with management about the team.

All is well in Flyerland again. I feel safe and warm.

Fedotov is on an ELC. The only contract stipulation that can prevent a player from being sent down in a NMC. A player on an ELC is ineligible for a NMC. Only players who have played 7 Accrued NHL seasons or are 27 years of age are eligible for a NMC or a NTC.

Has to be photoshopped. Clarke is retired and spends his time in Florida!

I know most of it. When the salary cap first came out in 2005, I actually read and studied the CBA to learn a lot about it. I had a good general knowledge of it. I used to
calculate the Flyers cap space on my own. I'm sure that it wasn't 100% accurate but it was close.
