As someone who works in accounting for entertainment, I'd be surprised if these guys paid the full tax hit they are subject to. Actors, producer, directors and writers don't even pay the "full taxes" on their income; usually they form loan-out corporations and just pay corporate taxes. I'd be shocked if there wasn't a similar tax loophole in sports.

As for the entertainment tax someone asked about, I don't think there is an entertainment tax, but that taxes in general were to high to originally shoot movies in Cali. But they just passed a tax break for filming in California recently, so production is coming back.

Anyone with a good tax accountant doesn't pay close to full taxes.
And any person making the kind of money they do should have a good tax accountant. And if they don't I not sure what to say.

This. Anyone in the top tier tax bracket should have a CPA and tax attorney working for them. If they dont, its their own fault for paying too much

There's a, er, ah, $5,000 leaving town tax.

If what Avery said there is accurate, from $13.2m to $660k, that's a fairly impressive drop. And just himself wasting $1m on "stuff"? Seems like it's almost too easy to spend money sometimes.

Yep, and that's why guys need money managers and look long term with their finances. He brought up a good point about per diem and using that for a basic tax free saving account. On a long road trip, that could be an extra 2k .
 
If it's cheap and we're still in the hunt comes playoffs, how would everyone feel about trading for Iginla at deadline. This assumes that it comes cheap and he's retained to fit under cap. Would help solve our top line situation, Iginla has previous success with Sutter, and give us some smalle firepower heading into playoffs. It would have to be cheap though, imo. And I assume the intention wouldn't be to resign him, pure rental.

Gaborik Kopitar Iginla
Pearson Carter Toffoli
Brown Dowd Setoguchi
Clifford Lewis King

I'd prefer we don't trade our 3rd highest goal scorer...

im ok with it lol Pearson gaborik brown and clifford is fine for our left side Not like we will miss him to much As far as him being 3rd highest scorer if he still is by the deadline which the deal would done around No point of the trade because we won't be in the playoff if he is.

I would totally trade Shore and a pick for Iginla if the team is playing well down the stretch, although I'd prefer a 3rd round or later. The team isn't great at C, but sheltering a 4C is no big deal.

I doubt King is traded, simply because of his utility, the guy can play anywhere. He's good for 10-15 goals and 25-30 points regardless of where he plays. I can't think of how he would be back next year, but then again it was pretty much consensus that Lewis was going to be gone. I think he's underrated a bit around here, but even so I would rather see some new blood brought in.

Take heart, only a few more months of DK for you to deal with :)

maybe but with the kinda luck i've been having lately I wouldn't rule out a 8 year 3 million a year resigning either :sarcasm:

Hey guys, Habs fan coming in peace!

Let's say you're out of playoffs (you could very well end up in too, not saying you're not a playoff team :naughty: )

Would you guys be open to get younger and some cap relief..

I was thinking something like :

:kings2

Nathan Beaulieu
Michael McCarron
1st 2017
DD (cap dump to end the year)

:habs

Tanner Pearson
Alec Martinez

How I see it is Beaulieu ~ Pearson and Martinez ~ McCarron + 1st. DD is there to absorb cap to end the year. Also, you'd be able to gain a protection slot.

I know you guys like big guy, so obviously McCarron fits the mold. Can't wait to play you on Sunday, I like your team!

No matter where we stand at the til this is s junk offer value wise and for what the team would need to make itself better. Amart is playing great and with limited scoring your asking for one of our few scoring winger and one who adds good speed. A big hell no.

Hell no. I've only seen about 10 Dallas games this year and he was bad in all of them.
 
KingCanadain1976 said:
well i wonder how much better he would be in our system. He more of a defensive defenseman playing in a offensive first system. Square peg in round hole imo

I thought he was already declining before he went to Dallas really, he was living on name and rep...but I totally agree with you too. My bigger problem is that he's soft and of average speed right now and we already have that guy for cheaper in Gilbert.

Plus I like my enduring memory of Hamhuis and the Kings being Trevor Lewis reaming him for the puck on Stoll's OT series winner vs. the Canucks ;)

well not like vancouver was a defensive team as well. I think he wouldn't have to be the guy just be dependable second pairing he would thrive. Also hes sign for one more year letting defensive prospects simmer longer in the ahl. Dean has tried to sign him the last two times he was available just got outbid. As far as gilbert its a different skill set I wouldn't call gilbert a strong defensively as i would hamhuis Putting him with martinez on the 2nd pairing would be perfect imo allowing muzzin to move up with drew Drew can then play like he should and not have to baby sit whoever is with him aka mcnabb or forbort
 
Frozen Royalty Spoke to #LAKings Michael Futa today about F prospect Adrian Kempe, who's struggling pretty badly w/@OntarioReign. Story coming tonight.
Some of you better temper your expectations on some of these prospects.
If Kempe and Mercsh were so great, they would be on the team. Unless you think DL and DS and the coaching staff are idiots.

Mersch is still playing well, he was just snake bitten a little.

Kempe is struggling really badly. Kempe has some holes in his game, the AHL is exposing them mighty right now.
