I have questions

[John Swartzwelder]

1) Do staff for NHL teams (GM, head coach, scout, trainer, etc) still get paid during NHL Lockout 2012?

2) Do players that got a buyout that happened before this season and it extends through NHL Lockout 2012 still get their buy out money? For example Yashin got bought out and get 2.2 mil/season until 2014-15. will he get paid during NHL Lockout 2012?

See stickied lockout FAQ http://hfboards.hockeysfuture.com/sh....php?t=1284421 for answer to first question.


AFAIK, bought out players will still be paid (regardless if there's any games played). But I haven't seen that specific question answered.

I would make sense if they get the money. The buyout happend long before the lockout and hast nothing to do with future CBA changes or the lockout.
