Arvidsson and Perron, who targets who might have been value options, both got 2 years x $4mil AAV. EDM for Arvidsson and ott for Perron. Too much for here.

This is a deal I might have done. Not sure why Carrier was willing to sign so long at a low rate, though.

I think the solution proposed in the video shows how much of a tax advantage the Southern states have. The solution requires the player, put away their money before taxes and he can?t use it. It?s an enormous advantage to have the liquidity of being able to use your money whenever you want to. And then, of course, you can?t continue to live in the same city where you?ve been playing all your career. You have to move back to the states or some other low tax environment, despite your family in some other city.

Ottawa wouldn't have traded Chychrun here and it sure seems like Roy's focus was on playing for a U.S. team.

Of course
Hedman: $8M x 4 years
At age 33 this is an awesome contract for TB locking in one of the best d man in the league. As a UFA what would he get? $10M x 7? Is it time to pro-rate salary caps based on state/provincial taxes?

I still wish the NHL went with more of an NBA style salary structure. Let teams go over the cap to retain their own players but limit how much you can spend in free agency if you are over those cap thresholds. And institute a luxury tax on cap overage so that teams can go over but make it punitive so that it benefits the teams that maybe can't afford to spend that way..but tie any of those money transfers to payroll.
