Hit me with a rebate on Brian Campbell's contract buyout. 
I think he's getting 4 big ones from Winnipeg and I had to pay him 4.7 to walk. Sweet. More dollars back in papa's wallet.

Why not just start a new league, with all these changes that you guys want, especially the new guys, why not just start over. Commish is on for 1 year, multiple owners are on 1 year deals, what is the point? Same one's are the one's trying to change everything. I doubt there is even a season this year, so it may be all for not and everyone is gone and same problems. This is turning into Northern League Part Deux!

Said the football guy in the hockey league.

Here's the flip side. Let's all live in the 1920's when men were men and not boys sitting around the internet pretending to be general managers.

I think it's called progress.

Isn't the point of a minor league team to: have "minor league" players - or in this case, players under 40 games of NHL experience?

I bring this up because I know my team has about 5 players that have not played in the NHL and maybe won't play in the NHL (40 games anyways) for 1-3 more seasons.
What's the point of burning roster spots on a team like mine when they won't contribute.
I have what, 3C, 4LW, 3RW, 1G and a full set of D to compete with this year, with the rest of the roster filled out by guys that most likely won't play this year, and if they do, will have very little impact.
Why are those types of players not "allowed" to be sent to the minor league system? Half of my RW group have never skated in an NHL game...

Don't get me wrong, I knew this "rule" or "system" whey I joined, so I am not complaining - I'm just using my team as an example because I know it better than anyone else's. I'm sure other teams have some players, or prospects, that are on their NHL team that won't be in the NHL for a while either.

Just seems silly to try to compete with other teams' full rosters, when there are still prospects on your main roster that won't contribute any points.

If I actually didn't give a poop about my team I'd buy out all the NHL players and sign whatever rookies are left over from previous years drafts (kind of like snug has slowly been doing) and then just tank it for the next 2 years to get higher draft picks in the yearly draft.

I don't know what the last manager was smoking but that Avs roster is stacked with prospects. Why would anyone sit round and wait years to rebuild a fantasy team. You can build or tear down a team almost overnight anytime.

On that note why don't you send over Huberneau/Jurco and see what I'll send back. haha
