Trade Rumors and Free Agent TalkTrade rumors, transactions, and free agent talk. Rumors must contain the word RUMOR in post title. Proposals must contain the word PROPOSAL in post title.
In the German 2nd division (now with Simmonds, Stewart, D'Agostini, DiPietro and Hall) each team's leading scorer has to wear a golden helmet. They introduced this last seasons for whatever reason. Looks tacky as hell but what can you do?

Nope, not in FEL at least. I think it's pocket money compared to their NHL contracts. Maybe something for guys making less than mil but not much. Best players in FEL get low 6 figures in a year, good juniors get little less than 100 000.

Depends... E.g. Jagr plays for free, Plekanec plays for 1 czech crown (= 5 american cents). But I guess not even the best lockout contracts aren't as high as NHL contracts.
I guess a bunch of the KHL players might be close to their NHL net income at least, right?
Other than that, it's pocket change for everyone I'd say.
Well, Ovechkin had a tough time getting (I forget the number, 65 or 75%) what he was asking Dynamo and CSKA for, so I can't imagine the other guys are getting their full salary either.
Perhaps they get a big bonus if they don't return to North America, however.
Unfortunaetly Kärntner mafia have money to bring even better players than him...
hopefully the "not that bad" part of this mafia kicks the crap out of the KAC today...GO GRABS GO!
its funny how controversal their speaks and actions are
I love the game of Myers, its awesome that he comes over but I`d see him better not here than in Klagenfurt
Salzburg seems to be the next team to bring a guy in, several sources don`t even talk about rumors anymore. no name said but pretty much sure to be done the next 1 or 2 weeks

Highlight video of all the NHL players currently playing in Switzerland. The uploader included Damien Brunner for some reason, even though he hasn't played one minute in the NHL so far.
