In the end, the Shane Doan contract is a reflection of the how smart and innovative general managers are thinking outside the box when looking at structuring new deals in a Salary Cap system and the modern day NHL.

I'm not as quick to suggest that deferring expenses is "smart and innovative".

It's just paying later with interest.

This is really sweet.

Arizona Coyotes General Manager John Chayka announced today that the Coyotes have signed Craig Cunningham to a two-year contract to serve as a pro scout. In addition to his scouting responsibilities, Cunningham will assist in player development with the Coyotes' prospects.

For those that weren't aware, Cunningham was in the Coyotes' prospect system, captaining the Roadrunners, when he suffered an acute cardiac arrest during the pre-game skate back in November. 85 min (!!!!) of CPR by the on-ice, emergency, and hospital med teams kept him alive, but the resultant circulation issues from his heart not beating on its own for a few days led to the amputation of his lower left leg. He was back in skates with the help of a prosthesis by the end of March.
