Anybody notice how most of these contract signings are for only one year?
The Bettman/Goodenow impasse is really playing havoc within the league.

Well, until the teams really know what is up, I guess I can't blame them. The players have feasted like piggies too long. Yes, the owners were stupid and overfed the guys, but there you go......
Yeah Danny Hinote!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :tu:
