Soo it seems the Nhl/Nhlpa came to an agreement.... that's crazy over 600 page contract so it seems... I know some people are like who cares etc etc...I know for a fact I could say I won't watch it... but I would...nothing else on or heck just because it's been a year since I would tune in... Granted the OHL took it's place nicely...Just certain for some reason I prefer the NHL.. What do you guys think about the new rules/regulations? Goalie equipment stuff like that?

I really don't think the NHL is going to be anything like it once was. They're also talking about eliminating overtime, and replacing it with a shootout. I'm not much of a fan of that idea.

I think for regular games shootout is fine, but not for playoffs unless it reaches say a 3rd ot or something.... on Tsn they have an approx roster for the leafs and what there wage is/was and what it will be for the 2005-2006 season:...

Mats Sundin $9 million $6.8 million
Owen Nolan $6.5 million $4.9 million
Ed Belfour $6 million $4.6 million
Bryan McCabe $4.6 million $3.5 million
Tomas Kaberle $3 million $2.3 million
Ken Klee $2.5 million $1.9 million
Darcy Tucker $2.1 million $1.6 million
Matt Stajan $1.1 million $806,000
Michael Tellqvist $550,000 $418,000

Teams total salary $26,800,000

Overtime certainly usually gives the game to the team that worked harder by getting that extra goal. However, a shootout would make it a much shorter process which is probably why they'd consider it.

Man you are from Kelowna, you have no right to be missing NHL, watching the Rockets is 100 times more exciting IMO.
