Hunter and the Knights are infamous for doing sketchy things to circumvent CHL rules and although heavily speculated, they have never been caught. Sign me up. Tired of playing within the rules while teams like the Lightning and Vegas screw around without consequence.

No kidding. Look at Vegas. Anyone shocked a few players all of a sudden are hurt a couple of weeks prior to the deadline?


I just took a look at Vegas roster on IR..

Eichel ($10M), Lehner ($5M) and Bjornfot ($775K) are all on LTIR .. grand total of $16M in cap relief.. with Jack getting ready just in time for game #1 of playoffs... .. and Lehner never coming back off LTIR after hip surgery last year (they used Lehner's cap relief to sign Aiden Hill this past summer)

They also currently have Stone ($10M), Carrier, and Dorofeyev on regular IR at $12M .. which could all be put on LTIR retrospectively.. creating lots of cap and roster "flexibility" :)

Looks like Vegas is shaping up to have $10M in cap space available for a significant trade at the deadline..




Don't hate the player, hate the game. Actually don't even hate the game, we all signed up for this.

The simple truth is the Oilers are playing the cap circumvention game as much as everyone else (Campbell, Smith, Brown) they're just not as good at it.



Please do not feed the bears. Feeding the bears creates a dependent population unable to survive on their own. Bears.
