I've decided to post up most of the leagues current rosters and Salary cap space. Just to put it into perspective on what certain teams conditions are in, as well as highlighting what certain players are making as of 06-07. This can put into perspective how the Habs are doing. It will also give everyone a basis on seeing what the habs could aqquire through a trade if a team is either in need of dumping a salary, or in need of a certain player position.
As of Monday July 3rd 17:20 PM, these are the current team rosters for players who are signed, and 06-07 payroll for certain teams: PS: I wasn't able to dig up team info on ALL teams

I worked with what i had, not everything is correct, but feel free to make it right. However I did state that I wasn't adding to speculated signings such as Gionta and Gomez. And as for the buyout, yes I realize that, however I couldn't find their contracts. At to be honest, I got tired of doing this 20 minutes into it. Took me 2 hours to complete.
EDIT: yeah i see where I messed up, I'll fix in later.
Nice work Jay! Looks like a few teams seriously overspent on a few players and will have to dump salary for cheap, a la Tampa to Dallas. I think that is where Gainey will strike. The question that remains though, is will there be the things we need available to strike at?
sorry jay if you took it as a bash but i was just offering help on what i know . i dont know if you are aware of this but that info can be found at tsn on the right side look for salary commitments for 06-07. again i wasnt bashing you . and good work i wanted to know but too lazy to do all the math . just did a couple of teams , thats how i know about to. and jersey and mtl. of course.
Its all good. I didn't take it as bashing, and no I didn't know I could find it on TSN.ca :sad: I later found out that i could have also gotten the info on nhlpa.com
Edit: Ugh, i just found out that TSN.ca AND nhlpa.com has errors on their page about certain salaries. So I won't change it save a few that i know are wrong, the ones that i originally listed will remain the 'official' salary until later in the summer.
