Concept of a Plan
This was funny maybe the first twenty times it's been said in this thread but THIS time, it's just too muchI bet they regret taking a flyer on him.

If you were going to lose 8 million bucks you would file one as well, lets not kid ourselves.Johansen was such garbage for this whole contract. Huge let down. Dude has some audacity even filing grievance. He should count his lucky stars he got what we got already out of this contract he didn’t earn. Then he’s out dancing at a wedding but filing grievance?! Whatta greedy chump.
I mean he was getting beat by other players all the time so no change there. Dude had lackluster effort. He should be happy he got $56 million he didn’t deserve.If you were going to lose 8 million bucks you would file one as well, lets not kid ourselves.
I'm also amused that people keep trying to put dancing at a wedding on the same level as being able to skate and get beat around by other players. Yeah boy those are one and the same.
This isn't workmans comp or FMLA it does not work anywhere remotely close to the same and does not follow the same rules. I tell you what though, you go get on a dance floor for a couple of minutes and then go skate in an NHL game and then get back to me on how relevant one is to the other.I mean he was getting beat by other players all the time so no change there.

And yeah dancing at a wedding would void any workers comp suit I would assume. I’ve seen people lose a case for out gardening. That’s not dancing around. That’s a lot less body stress. If you can dance you must be awfully limber.
But i thought he could barely walkThis isn't workmans comp or FMLA it does not work anywhere remotely close to the same and does not follow the same rules. I tell you what though, you go get on a dance floor for a couple of minutes and then go skate in an NHL game and then get back to me on how relevant one is to the other.
Also there is a huge difference in getting beat around by NHL players when you are 27 years old and when you are getting close to your mid 30's. There is a reason guys start dropping out of the league at around that age.
Whether he was worth the money he signed for doesn't matter, the fact is someone agreed to it and it is what he is owed unless they can prove he broke his contract. Whether you like the player or not has no bearing on the CBA or contract law.
I know he’s obviously entitled to it for signing the contract I’m just saying I’m sure he sleeps well at night knowing he didn’t earn it is all. And I know it’s not workers comp for nhl I’m just saying if you can dance at a wedding you aren’t that crippled up. You’re right about one thing for sure is that with older age some guys can’t keep up. He is probably suffering from his age and crying a just wanting last year of his pay. He stunk in his twenties obviously he stinks nowThis isn't workmans comp or FMLA it does not work anywhere remotely close to the same and does not follow the same rules.

Johansen is milking it 100%The Flyers, of course, have to explain what they feel the material breach of contract is, but one place you may want to start is exploring whether or not Johanson's condition changed between leaving the ice at his last practice with the Avalanche and being told his next game was going to be in Allentown. If he can't point to a substantive change in his health at that moment, then it certainly seems that he was capable of playing, and refused... which as far as I am aware is a breach of contract.
Didn't the Flyers doctors also say he was injured?The Flyers, of course, have to explain what they feel the material breach of contract is, but one place you may want to start is exploring whether or not Johanson's condition changed between leaving the ice at his last practice with the Avalanche and being told his next game was going to be in Allentown.

Apparently the CBA matter not though. A club can arbitrarily terminate a players contract and then it’s up to the player (with the help of the NHLPA) to fight that. Seems ass backwards but that how it goes.This isn't workmans comp or FMLA it does not work anywhere remotely close to the same and does not follow the same rules.

Its not about whether I like the guy or not, its about whether you can prove anything or not. This is not the first time a team has tried this route, and most of the time the team has lost.I know he’s obviously entitled to it for signing the contract I’m just saying I’m sure he sleeps well at night knowing he didn’t earn it is all. And I know it’s not workers comp for nhl I’m just saying if you can dance at a wedding you aren’t that crippled up.

He stunk in his twenties obviously he stinks now
Are you his girlfriend or something? Most Preds fans want this cap space but you defend him like he’s your boyfriend.
Right?? He’s a big phoney
I mean he could have had the exact same condition in Colorado but once he went to a team that weren't cup contenders it no longer became worth dealing with on a daily basis.The Flyers, of course, have to explain what they feel the material breach of contract is, but one place you may want to start is exploring whether or not Johanson's condition changed between leaving the ice at his last practice with the Avalanche and being told his next game was going to be in Allentown.

you'd save time by just typing that you have no idea what's going onSo with the new standard the league has set, the Flyers will get cap relief but still owe Johansen his full salary... right?
What "new standard" are you referring to? Over the contract term, all payments to players are included in the cap hit (potential exception for the crazy end of contract deferred payments - but those so far as so small as to no matter). There was some question about the Kane contract cancellation due to pandemic reasons, but it sounded like SJ took a one time hit when they had sufficient cap space.So with the new standard the league has set, the Flyers will get cap relief but still owe Johansen his full salary... right?
This ^^^So with the new standard the league has set, the Flyers will get cap relief but still owe Johansen his full salary... right?
I guess it depends on just how he actually feels physically. I know the narrative is that he is lazy but he's had at least two substantial injuries in his career, the compartment disease in his leg in which it was cut open to save it, and then the messed of achilles or whatever it ended up being. Add on to some things we might not know about and frankly it may have been the better option for him.Do you think he regrets not reporting to the AHL at this point? It would be much easier to earn that 8 million by reporting to the AHL than all these legal proceedings.
As long as that means the Preds get the associated cap relief I'm cool with that outcome, although I'm guessing our owners would rather not pay the 4 million that is the Preds responsibility.This ^^^
Flyers clear the cap and RyJo gets his money.
