Sure but what player would want to do that?
- Santo_44


I'm not sure the players would really care.

If you negotiate a contract with Phoenix, but need to sign with the leafs to get paid a signing bonus and then get traded to Phoenix, I don't think players would really care.

They would get paid, and during these times, I doubt they would care what logo is on the cheque.

I think the signing bonus is nice....but I don't think it means enough for a player to weaken the team he is signing for.

It is just a bonus for a player.

As much as I hate to say it, the NHL would put a stop to it. It's obvious cap-circumvention, as you are not allowed to trade for money.

It's brilliant, but alas, it's not going to happen.

Sorry to say but all the research and the most sophisticated medical system in the world are going to be as useful as curing cancer with leeches if you don’t have a political structure that can generate social support for going more than four weeks without haircuts.

I know.

I was all for trading him after that happened two playoffs in a row.

But he certainly had value at that contract.

- Leafs43

He did have value.
Brought back a top 4 d with a 2.5m cap hit and 3rd line center, whos been good defensively

Ya - My memory is starting to kick in. Didn't we try to "Buy" a fourth round pick a few years ago and the league got all pissy?

Can't remember, but they wouldn't like it.

Regardless, we should certainly continue with the high bonus amounts. It makes the contracts much more tradeable to cash strapped teams later in the term with really no downside.

Funnily enough Kerfoot had the same numbers on the 3rd line as Kadri did the previous year. He's pretty young, I think people are judging him too soon.
- RogerRoeper

Agreed with you here roger.
It was good trade
Ya Barrie didnt work out as hoped, but people were kinda foolish to think hed get 70 plus pts.
Had barrie gotten 55pts people would have loved the trade even more.
As it stands barrie and kerfoot accumulated 67pts to kadris 36.
The leafs got younger and a top 4 Dman.
Good trade for dubie imo specially when he was cap crunched

You can put a price on clippers but you can’t put a price on freedom.

If there are Canadians that they are showing on TV, it interests me.

Otherwise, no thanks.

We tried watching that Tiger + Phil + Tom + Peyton thing - it was boring as hell.

No wonder you're so (frank)ed up. You have no idea about the world. That's way too much money for hair clippers.

Simmons on Gameday just now: “Dubas’ plan is shot”

Says he wouldn’t have signed JT or given the kids that much money had he known about the Flat Cap. Guy is such a GasBag
