I've been reading this thread and this point keeps popping up, but the suggestion seems to be that the Caps should be ridiculed for not having a team that does exactly this kind of job.So the Caps needed someone to build a website for them?
I'm not doubting the effort involved to built Cap Friendly. It's just not clear to me why the Caps needed to hire their staff.
It still doesn't make sense to me. The Cap Friendly owners had lots of friendly contacts around the business. Now that they are hired as mercenaries, these relationships wont work the same way. So what is the Capitals buying really ?Shocking, an entity suppressing information when having power/money to do so.
Shameful move by Caps
Sure, I like the website very much. But are you guys saying that a comparable replacement will not be developed in the coming months? I bet it will be. CapGeek wasn't irreplaceable. Others stepped in.
I think what happened is that they hired the key person or persons behind the website and acquired the website as well, because the person(s) would only be working for them. This still leads me to wonder what are those special skills offered by those persons that the Caps were coveting. It's not like Capfriendly provided completely unique information no one else could offer. There weren't any trade secrets on there.
The NHL doesn't want the information out there. I can guarantee that the league have pushed for this purchase and the Capitals just happened to end up with the buy.They mention the data base. Why does a team need to buy the data base when they can log on and view it for free ?
Kinda pointless , you delete one 3 more grows. If the NHL doesn't understand that someone is already copying capfriendly well they are truly clueless.The NHL doesn't want the information out there.

It just shows how out of touch the league and the owners are. It's like how the music industry tried to suppress Napster until they had to accept that they should offer streaming as they weren't stopping piracy.The NHL doesn't want the information out there. I can guarantee that the league have pushed for this purchase and the Capitals just happened to end up with the buy.
unless the NHL succeeds in not allowing the public access to contracts. I get the feeling we're in for a lockout once the CBA expiresIt still doesn't make sense to me. The Cap Friendly owners had lots of friendly contacts around the business. Now that they are hired as mercenaries, these relationships wont work the same way. So what is the Capitals buying really ?
If they wanted the Cap Friendly owners expertise, why cant they just keep the site up and do work for the team?
The next group of nerds will have a replacement site ready in under 6 months
If that were true, PuckPedia be would getting bought too.The NHL doesn't want the information out there. I can guarantee that the league have pushed for this purchase and the Capitals just happened to end up with the buy.
If anything , what they are doing is making the situation worse. Buying out these sites creates the incentive for the next group to start a site.Kinda pointless , you delete one 3 more grows. If the NHL doesn't understand that someone is already copying capfriendly well they are truly clueless.
CF is so much nicer to look at than PPIf that were true, PuckPedia be would getting bought too.
And there's nothing the league can do to stop agents from giving information to these sites. The only way that happens is if making contract information private makes it into a CBA and the owners would have to give up something massive for that to happen.
