mnfaninnc Verified Member Posted September 3 Share Posted September 3 I like the playoff salary cap, that should help teams that aren't like Vegas. Less than 2 weeks away before the season starts to ramp up. Looking at the roster, there are a couple of interesting updates: Yurov- 6'1" 195 Heidt- 5'10" 194 Buium- 6' 192 All 3 of these players are coming in above their listed weights which were likely from their draft years. Are they estimated? I don't know, I don't think they've weighed in yet with the organization. This would suggest that all 3 have been working out. Yurov was expected as information about him in Russia was likely classified. But I do like Heidt and Buium growing. I'm hoping it's all muscle. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a great adustment by the league and players association. It still allows teams to change lineups between games. Effectively allowing some players to rest or have a replacement player at a relatively equal value as a possible injury replacement. I also like how they force the team to list 18 players and 2 goalies for each game so they can't just shorten the bench with high paid players.

Actually, I'd kind of like to see how a shortened bench would work out for a team. Can a team list the 18 and 2 by having "empty" in any of those slots?

But my interpretation was that you had to have 20 players listed with no empty slots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
