Robertson stayed in Dallas for less money. That’s pretty rare. He still got paid but 40 goal guys do now.

Almost $19M a year! Crazy.

For a sort of comparison .... highest paid NFL and NBA players are now making ~$60M per year.

Hockey soon to be priced out for the average person and Canadian.

One guy on the Oklahoma Thunder makes more in a year than the entire payroll of a lot of NHL teams. Is basketball priced out for "average people"? I don't know. I went to one Raptors game a few years ago, and it was crazy expensive, but my Leafs tickets cost even more.

You are older tho my online friend.

The younger generation having a hard time. Kids not into hockey even. Maybe more soccer coming soon. I love it. I’ll always go to a few jets games a year. My daughter has fun but it’s not a love like her dad has for it. Maybe one day. Nephews the same. Enjoy watching and like skating but no interest in playing for real.

Seabears really fun here also. Did a goldeyes game, done after 6 innings we were lol.

Laine has been offered a Professional tryout offer by the islanders. 8.5 lol. Try league minimum.

I thought that Manitoba's rate was higher.

Are you telling me that we could have Laine, Evander Kane AND Logan Stanley by the opening of training camp? Looks like patience has run out on a lot of these guys, including Jonathan Drouin - so much talent but a heart of Dubois...

I’ve heard it’s sorta irrelevant as their income is taxed every place they play. Like Florida paying no taxes for 42 “cheques “. The other 42 on the road (depending on if tax exists there) their “cheques” get taxed.

Hockey might be becoming more nba and baseball where only a handful of teams are true legit contenders and everyone else is just there. I mean, you get the odd Cinderella story right but not often. Dodgers Yankees Red Sox in baseball every year. It’s gonna come to that. Florida Tampa LV Carolina Dallas. Houston when they come.

Why haven’t the Maple Leafs signed a $20M D-man for pennies on the dollar?

I'm not surprised

According to Sportsnet, “Hockey Night in Canada Punjabi” averaged 1,500 viewers overall last season, and more than 50 per cent of games averaged less than 1,000 viewers.

I'm shocked that they had more then 1 season with numbers like that?
