Carol Schram: The salary cap will rise again, someday. And the current free-agent market. NHL Deputy Commissioner Bill Daly delivered a hopeful message about the league's finances as this week's promotional event in Paris. And with Paul Stastny and Phil Kessel signing bargain contracts this week, a look at what's left in the free-agent marketplace.

Thanks Carol!

When it comes to salary cap, I'm sure the Canucks will be compliant. No worries.

Thanks Carol. Lot of uncertainty regarding cap ceiling. Hard to plan contract wise. So more likely players take what they know.

Thanks Carol. You're awesome.

Small typo in the piece. You mentioned Brendan Perlini twice in your paragraph listing unsigned UFA's. Thought I'd mention it before Reuby does.

Thanks. Fixed now. I meant for Evan Rodrigues to be the last guy on that list!

Be interesting once the federal reserve gets abolished and on the gold standard, it’s coming, fake money can only last so long.

Thanks Carol.

I think the league should have the Coyotes playing in these overseas games, maybe they can draw more fans overseas than they can put into their 425 seat arena.

In regards to the cap, I am not sure why some people just can't get it, the team would have to spend around 15 million, just on Bo and JTM, leaving the Canucks in never-ending cap hell.
Time to start dumping some of these players. If some of the fans want to keep the 10 million dollar Pouty.
