Hope Svechy can improve on this front. It has to be so frustrating for him.
semi-random question on the business side of things.
how much of a financial windfall was it for perets, being the backup on saturday? are players paid 1/82 of their nhl salary per game they are on the roster? I thought that was how it worked, but with cap accrual gymnastics we do i'm wondering if maybe it is daily? or actual pay and daily cap on the roster are different things... this isn't something i've ever put much though into.
it just occurred to me that for perets, a guy making just over 80 grand in the minors, that one call-up was a pretty sweet bonus. if they are paid by game, it would have been just a bit under 10k.
tangentially, that is good moving money if he is going to the echl. i think between perets and the russian khnsomething, they would rather send perets down, and i'm really hoping the wolves keep tokarski.

I think it’s based on the number of days they’re in the nhl roster, not games. Which is why we’ve had a bunch of guys that dont need to clear waivers get ‘sent down’ and recalled between games in the last few years.
Good article on the value of the Goaltending position (some Tulsky mentions):

'There's not one right way to do it': Why paying goalies is so complicated in today's NHL
When Igor Shesterkin turned down a record offer from the Rangers, it left many wondering how much a goalie should make. We look at some of the factors that make it such a hard question to answer.

Would if I could. That's a damn good question.
I can only guess that it would make a lot of sense that the real pay probably isn't allow to differ from how it is for the salary cap purposes, so that if you're in AHL for a day for the salary cap, you also wouldn't get NHL salary for that day either. BUT. The salary cap get gamed that way and it would get gamed even if the players took the hit for it, so I'm just as prepared to believe that NHLPA would have gotten some silent concession that the player gets paid the NHL salary anyway if the transfer is merely a paper transfer.
I *think* it's kind of telling that you never hear a player whine about getting stolen some salary by team's shenanigans.

Starting the new year off with Panthers, Wild, TBL and Leafs..

I don't even care about the opponents. That stretch suddenly has a lot of games in not a lot of days.
was already 2 back to backs and 5 in 9 days....now, 6 games in 9 days....Bolts screwed us by not agreeing to play the earlier date.
Minny 1/4
Pitt 1/5
Tampa 1/7
Toronto 1/9
Vancouver 1/10
Anaheim 1/12
Interesting path by KHL. Professional Sports Leagues now copying soccer with in-season Cups, Tournaments, etc.:
www.sportsnet.ca
KHL launching new three-on-three tournament next month
Russia's KHL is launching a unique new three-on-three tournament later this season.
a small silver lining - other than the rescheduled game at Tampa, all of those are at home.
meanwhile, in the same stretch of dates, Tampa has:
@ Sharks 1/4
@ Kings 1/5
Canes 1/7
Bruins 1/9
@ devils 1/11
@ pens 1/12
So, while it may be a bit of a pyrric victory, tampa screwed themselves, too.
edited so it isn't tagging random devils/pens fans

I find it hard to sat Tampa screwed anybody since the earlier date would have resulted in them losing a home game. That was never happening for a game that early in the season.

I imagine Canes also have to "agree" to the postponement, and/or the league

Best decision was allowing Brindamour to coach, despite his lack of experience.
Worst decision? Letting Forslund walk. Raising parking prices to absurd levels. Possibly interfering with the negotiation process many, many times over.

For me
Best decision: making it a priority to get as many fans in the arena as possible right after he took over. It got people to care about the team again, and its paid off in spades now. Winning helps, but combining that with basically an open door policy for games made it hit that much harder.
Worst decision: letting Forslund and Kaiton go like he did
My comments about Dundon were... Its funny how everyone knew Tepper would be a great owner because of his time with the Steelers and that experience would drag the Panthers to relevance and that Dundon would be terrible because he didn't know hockey and meddled too much. Funny how that worked out
