Thread: Just A Bit Outside The Box
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>IDKtbh</b></div><div>I hate people like you that make comments like “you’re comparing this player to that player” as if I’m comparing him the way only your little brain can process.

The comparison is in terms of their value. I’m not saying McDavid is worth Seider or vice versa. I am saying you cannot trade for McDavid; he’s untouchable. Moritz Seider is also untouchable. Nick Suzuki is NOT untouchable. Do you get it?

And for the record, I don’t play video games anymore. Not that I think anything is wrong with it, NHL makes a terrific hockey game; I just don’t play it so, unfortunately your video game comment was off base bud.</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>JeffGorton</b></div><div>He just got 66 points because of Caufield. Suzuki overperformed every analytical stats offensively. Both of their shooting % was 16%. No way they can keep that up. Suzuki is a career 10-11% and caufield will be a career 13-14%

And the way he plays, he shouldnt even be playing Center. He plays along the boards and never occupies the middle. And hes too slow to make it up defensively. So in an ideal world, hes on the right wing anyways. And even then, he still wont be a ppg player because hes not that good at driving offence on his own. Dach and Caufield are the only ones on the roster rn that could get ppg.</div></div>

Hey! What did I say about using logic!? Poor little guy must be terrified.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>JeffGorton</b></div><div>23.5 m owed for 3 years with 17.5m in signing bonus and 6m base salary but i think all contract signed after the last lockout are 85% insured. Still doubt he'll ever get traded though since it would cost a lot</div></div>

Couldn't find anything about insured contracts in the most recent 2020 amendments... And then I gave up after skimming through 500 pages. haha. The only relevant information had to do with "workers comp". It sounds like it is determined by the laws of each individual state or province. Anything outside of workers comp seems to be elective and not a requirement. Which means any sort of salary insurance would be on a case by case basis and determined by whether it is cost effective for the club to pay the insurance premium or just pay the salary if something happens. I could absolutely be wrong. But I just couldn't find anything concrete about that. So, I am just guessing based on what I did find.
