Vanflyer Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 @AJgoal- Interesting about the tier thing and when nmc / ntc initiates in a contract. What I wonder is can a contract be renegotiated? Carter obviously signed his contract under the premise that he would be playing the majority of his career in Philly. I am sure he (and Columbus) would like to see a different contract (maybe same money, much shorter years and no NMC / NTC- or at least limited to 5-7 teams of players choice like the Kubina deal).

AJgoal Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Contracts can not be renegotiated like they can in the NFL. Once signed, the term and payment are final, unless the player is bought out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Podein25 Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 What I wonder is can a contract be renegotiated?I don't think so. Extended, yes, but not renegotiated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phlfly Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 The NHL should kill those contracts for good. No more then 5 years. Who wants to see same situation as Flyers with Pronger, Isles with Rick DiPietro. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

orange_crush Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Pending league approval.. Flyers must be getting close to 50 contracts, no?@Real_ESPNLebrunHearing for 2 draft picks "@DarrenDreger: Pending league approval, Pavel Kubina has been traded to Philadelphia."Kubina's cap hit is $3.85M and he's a UFA after this season.I think this is a great trade for the Flyers, a vet dman was a must have right now..

radoran Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Fixed it for you! Bryz's contract isn't an over 35 - the flyers locked themselves into it with the NMC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jammer2 Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 Any Nash deal would have to include Bryz from my standpoint....and NOT Couts....I believe he will be better than Nash straight up.....so no dice if he's included. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would be fine including Schenn, but not Couts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phillygrump Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 And Bryz would have to be involved in the deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hexy27 Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 Bryz's contract isn't an over 35 - the flyers locked themselves into it with the NMC.Right but neither is DiPietro's. He was 25 when he signed his 15 year deal. Bryz's contract (rather than Pronger's) is more similar to DiPietro's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mojo1917 Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 So far Kubina is saying the right stuff, happy to be here etc... i remember him as being a decent player, always in the way, so hopefully between him and Grossman we'll get things to where Bryz is only seeing 11 shots a game that way we have a chance to win.

Phillygrump Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 11 shots a game is about 3 goals for Bryz so we just need to score 3 to win. I like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phlyer1 Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 He is being called on to fill in for Pronger. Tough job but somebody has to do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radoran Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 Right but neither is DiPietro's. He was 25 when he signed his 15 year deal. Bryz's contract (rather than Pronger's) is more similar to DiPietro's.DiPietro has no NMC/NTC - the Isles could get rid of him if they wanted. The Flyers can't do anything that Bryz doesn't approve.The Isles signed DiPietro to be "the face" of the franchise with that deal. As a result, they are reluctant to pull the trigger on the end.DiPietro's problem is also injury - not bad play (necessarily). Bryzgalov's is not injury-based (that we know of...). Pronger's is injury-based.Respectfully, I fail to see the relationship between the DiPietro and Bryzgalov deals.(a side note: I see the Isles still have Yashin on their cap at $2.2M through 14-15... yowza).

aziz Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 (a side note: I see the Isles still have Yashin on their cap at $2.2M through 14-15... yowza).yeah, it's the only thing keeping them above the cap floor. literally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pronger's is injury-based.Respectfully, I fail to see the relationship between the DiPietro and Bryzgalov deals.yeah, DiPietro's deal only looks bad now that he's hurt all the time. The deal was a stunner at the time but nobody was questioning if he was worth it from a talent standpoint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canoli Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 I guess not - not from a "talent standpoint" as you said. But everyone was questioning it from an "is Garth insane?" standpoint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
