I think they should be identified with the dancing taco beside each name. Rory Fitzpatrick 20mill (2121)
Leaning twd NO.Loyalty is the thought behind this discount.Of course. Its a pain to track prospects that get dealt.So maybe. PPG can make the final call.
I have another question to add to this. If I didnt draft, but traded for a prospect before he made the jump to the pro roster would they count for the hometown discount?
Not urgent, but I would like to clarify exactly who will be eligible for a hometown discount starting next August. I will use specific examples from the Pens roster:1) Sidney Crosby, $5.6m (2012-2016) - I assume he would be eligible for the FNHL Pens since he plays for the NHL Pens. But I don't know if the FNHL Pens actually drafted him, but I'm not sure if that criteria must be met as well. Would he be eligible?2) Marc-Andre Fleury, $9.1m (2014-2019) - Ditto Crosby above ... however, he is under contract through 2019. Can his contract be re-negotiated to take advantage of the hometown discount, or are we saying you can only do this when their contracts are up for renewal?3) Robert Bortuzzo, $1.7m (2015-2018) - The FNHL Pens drafted him, but he now plays for the NHL Blues. Would he be eligible? I realize his salary is only $1.7M and probably not worth it, but just using him as an example of someone previously drafted by an FNHL team that a) there is no record on the team page that the FNHL team drafted him and b) he no longer plays for the same NHL team.Thanks in advance, PPG
