News & Notes XLIV: Revenge of the Seth

[chaz4hockey]

Home is a good word here. The one they used in Finnish was too vague for me to decipher whether he was talking about a house or an apartment, so crib was a poor choice of mine.


"Johnny said that Richie said that Johnny said that Richie said --" was a phrase we used to use at work when there was an amount of vagueness of the actual source and the trustworthiness thereof.

A little research.....Antii listed his North Hills home in May and sold it in at the end of July to......Jalen Chatfield.

Still, too bad because I believe Antii enjoyed living in the Triangle and his young daughter had just started school.

Think about Kucherov.

Again, in my opinion, none of that matters.

In the Cup season where Kucherov came off in time for the playoffs, the bigger issue IMO was the fact that if Tampa was forced to ice a roster that met the salary cap (I believe the 20 man team they iced was around $90 million) one or more guys like Killorn or Gourde or Coleman or Johnson would have had to be replaced with league minimum guys.

Force that team to play for Tampa and they don't get out of the conference finals much less the Cup.

Just make the 20 man roster meet the salary cap period....not pro-rated, full cap hit.

I'd also be in favor of that.

There are multiple ways you can deal with this that would be effective. Just pick one.

There are many ways to "fix" the problem, but I've never had any issue with teams finding any sort of way to get an edge on the competition. It probably helps my perspective some that the Canes now have the type of ownership who is willing to do exactly that, but still, I have no issue with the status quo.

 

[Derailed75]

Owners don't care, the owners are the league and Bettman answers to them. Nothing will change unless the owners decide it can't either save them money or make them more money.

Hannah Yates quietly returns?

Hannah Yates quietly returns?

she didnt leave

Bally pulled her to work the Braves games after bally's Canes broadcast season was over. I believe they did it for the Hawks or Hornets gal as well.

I thought she had left permanently for that Braves job as well.

Different party paying though????? She gets more experience plus a bigger annual pay check.

I lost bally in ATL because of the comcast dispute but, i believe the Braves dugout reporter duties they were rotating between the two gals (Canes and Hawks/Hornets) and the guy they brought on to start the year. The previous dugout reporter left. Im assuming Bally was trying to fill positions without bringing on new folks since they are going bankrupt.

New campaign expected to be clean and bold vs last year's dark and stormy and uh, chaotic.

Raanta reported to have signed to Switzerland per the transfer list. No announcement yet of the signing by any team.

I wonder if he is still keeping the dream of returning to the NHL alive or just running out the clock for a good paycheck in the last season of his career?

He was pretty clear in his recent Finnish interview that his NHL days are over. Can't be doing 60+ AHL games tweener thing hoping for a call-up anymore at his age. Also can't return to Finland yet this year due to taxation reasons re: the sales income from his home.

 

[Svechhammer]

Ok this is funny

 

[HisIceness]

Good to see Necas put on his happy face

 

[hblueridgegal]

Perhaps it's married life..but Aho looks older now..his baby face is all gone.

Yeah, my immediate thought was he likely didn't know quite what he was in for. Feels like we need a single training camp thread.

Carrier has never played more than 71 games in a season and in his last 4 seasons he's played 52 (Covid year), 63, 55, and 39 games. Not sure this is surprising at all. My son seemed to think he had a non-contact injury but I haven't heard anything about that.
