He's guessing. It's signed when it's signed. And then 2 hours later... DEALS ARE ON!!!!!

Kovalchuk and Visnovski could be two others. Redden? There are some who would benefit.

Some interesting points from the new CBA. I've heard most of them, but there are some "new" ones, for me at least, like each team has to schedule 6-8 games. That's a bit of extra revenue there.

Also, players on their second contract are entitled to their own hotel room. I hope that extra cost is included in the calculations of HRR.

More random drug testing.

Longer intermissions (from 17 to 18 minutes; and here I was thinking it was 15) with max 5-minutes for on-ice activities; this is to improve ice conditions.

If asked, teams must agree to at least one international game over the course of the CBA.

Probably not. It's revenue, not profit.

There are lots of things that are taken off the top line when calculating HRR. Usually as a percentage of some sort. That's why the owners were "crying" because some costs had risen dramatically (cost of fuel drives travel expenses, for example).

Ok. Didn't know they did it that way.
