I know the Leafs and Red Wings were in high 60's, though they were near the top of the list. Think the average was high 40's, low 50's.

Yeah, if I remember correctly, the cap is more about spreading the pay as opposed to players having 10 mill+ per year contracts. The big thing is having the floor included, it makes the spending more even across the league.

thats kinda close to what i remember. i never really had an issue with not having a cap but Philly would always spend a TON of money to get players so my opinion was very biased at the time. be interesting to see what happens with the CBA.

My dad's in the same place. Not looking good for the Devils right now.
Can't say I'm happy to see the Avs on their three times, but those were three great players!!!

I have not heard much about Marty but does anyone know if he is playing next year? Or is that not been said yet until after the series? I was just wondering as Thomas took the year off, Tomas Vok's in Pitts the market is getting very tight for goalies

Alright, alright. You got the W, not no nitpicking. Lol.
It was a good close game again last night, but with LA's record on the road, I'm thinking it ends in NJ!!!

I don't know about worst call Ricky... It wasn't a great call, but it was a pointless hit that got the numbers.
Either way, a win is a win. I'll be rooting for the home team for the rest of the series. Gotta watch the cup get raised at home.
