I think it's America Jr's version of Independence Day, without the gun shootin' and fireworks.

Seems like a self centered holiday title.

Like if we renamed 4th of July, AMERICA BEAT YOUR ASS ENGLAND day

Kessel, Tyler Biggs, Tim Erixon and 2nd in 2016 for Kapanen, Harrington, Spaling, 1st and 3rd picks in 2016. TOR retains $1.25M/year.

Profit sharing allows them to match.
- MikesPillBottle


Exactly -- I like offer sheets and absolutely think they should be used

You use them to cripple teams who have no room to move, not ones who are playing with house money to begin with and will take a short-term loss

Flames had to give an extra year and pay a bit more to land Frolik. Hot commodity.

Shouldn't have profit sharing anyway. No reason to keep rich GM's investments into teams like Florida and Arizona from going under. They never learn their lesson if they're bailed out annually. ANNUALLY, you perverts.

Pretty sure if you retain salary it has to be over the entire contract and not just a portion. That was my understanding from the new CBA.

never say that... you're just tempting fate.

Get your Canada on.

What exactly is "Canada Day?" Do you like, drink excessively, wear flannel, and hunt moose?

Absolutely -- yeah, the OS was annoying and costly to them, but they get revenue sharing

They're paying on the front end, sure, but they know their shortfalls are being made up by the richest 8-10 teams in the league

So there's no risk -- Snider even alluded to it when he said something to the effect that his money helps them keep Weber
