the other 3 punt. Bigfoot jen 1st

I find Bieksa has progressively gotten worse by association. It's sad but true.

Klinberg is apparently close to returning to the NHL after his hip surgery. What teams would want to put money on a dude who haven't played the entire year and got a surgery that pretty much means poor skating for a long while?

Edmonton, Toronto...Ottawa.

Annnnnddddd.....Edmonton it is !!

The Devils have buried Nemac in the AHL and they say the reason is Kovacevic is their guy who is in the way so to speak.................this is the 3rd year they buried that kid in the A.
As for trading they think he has a ton of value, but if they wont let him make the team...................?
Any thoughts?
Could Evans, + get that kid out of NJ?

You could get Nemec straight up for Evans. I am probably wrong

...yup, you are...Nemec would cost; would be worth it, imo, but he would cost...

If the best offer for Evans is Nemec you say thank you for your service and good bye then say yes and run before someone wake up in NJ's front office. I'm not super high on Nemec but that's an offer you would have to accept 100% imo. Wont happen though

So apparently the League cancelled escrow payments, the 50/50 spit has already been reached. That means players won't pay the 6% escrow tax on their salaries anymore. It's the first time this happens since the cap was introduced.

The league will 100% push for a $97m cap next year. Not sure the PA wants it, I'm sure they prefers not having to pay escrow.
