Calgary Sun(AP) - With the furniture finally in place, and the coffee machine plugged in and brewing, Money Inc. got down to the business at hand.
Led by former Flyers GM Greg Bates, Money Inc has gone about recruiting some of the best young agents available in the sports world. Backed up by a crack staff of administrators, and a stable of lawyers not seen since the days of the Watergate defence, Money Inc stands poised to become the premier sports management agency in North America.
With an eye on representing the best and the brightest players that hockey has to offer, Money Inc, has a mission statement based around bringing a fair understanding between the CPHLPA and the owners of the various franchises.
Currently Money Inc agents are scattered accross the country actively recruiting perspective clients. Bates has been in serious talks with the CPHL commissioner to get a better understanding of the guidlines that govern the league.
It is expected that most client negotiations for the first year will be handled by Bates himself, a hardnosed negotiator who was known for his aggressiveness when he took over a Flyers team in disarray and made them fairly competitive in his first and only year as a CPHL GM.
Its expected that a roster of players will be registered shortly with CPHL's headoffice.
Shortly after that players with short term or expiring deals will begin to approach thier teams for a commencement of renegotiation.
