Yeah, this is just an inaccurate visual take to get more clicks and highlight the tax advantage. I'm not saying there isn't a tax advantage, but they left out a lot of details here Oettinger's signing bonus isn't as heavy, so he's going to pay more of that in away games where the tax might be higher. They is really just to raise eyebrows.
He already had more money than one can spend in a lifetime; he didn’t lose a second of sleep.
Not such a hot take. You are spot on, I didn't even think about that. Then again, we don't play exceedingly well vs bottom feeders. Often barely just enough to win. I'm growing very tired of this losing. We havent seen this in over 3 years, if not more. Losing is one thing, how your playing is another, and losing to loser teams is unacceptable. Very early on in the season, the Trocheck line was doing their thing. In an attempot to get Zibby going, he shook things up and came up empty. Disrupted best line and even disrupted the "new kid line". I guess better now to "experiment and evaluate", then later on. It just sucks, everything has been sucking lately with "OUR" team. Get it together already, falling quickly.
Poor guy, already earned multiple millions of dollars and not knowing exactly how many more millions he's going to have stashed away. Truly a relatable everyman situation.
We already know this bites us in the ass 6 or less years down the road. They’re not winning this year unless they have a MAJOR upheaval before the trade deadline, and a proper rebuild would take more than 6 years. And Kakko and Laf will potentially be on the decline by the time there’s “another window.”
Jake pays local taxes for road games. Is that incorporated in this.
