oh well. Everybody was pissed when CapGeek went offline, then CapFriendly stepped up and CapGeek was forgotten pretty quickly. I'd imagine PuckPedia or somebody else will fill the void in a similar fashion.
Conroy actually talked about it. The Flames have their own system, some of the things it did better, other things worse. The team was making changes in their software to fill those gaps.

The two things that Conroy mentioned were how quickly Capfriendly updated the contract information. It was much quicker than the league updated their own servers. I think Conroy said they could take up to a week longer. The other thing was ease of access, the fact that you could open capfriendly from everywhere and at any time, and have all the information quickly.

PS: I was using nhlnumbers at first.
