The cap hit, amazingly enough, doesn't really matter. Dallas isn't going to be spending to the cap, so its the real dollars that matter for them. Even so, $7 mil over two years...

Nope it has gone eerily quiet... wonder if a player on Dallas' end is refusing to waive his NTC

I thought Dallas' new owner was moneybags and willing to spend to the cap?

Horcoff isn't a bad player, he had a bad contract. $3.5 a year (cash) is maybe a little high for him, but he's a decent 2 way player. He got hurt last year, and the Oilers were worse without him.

If Dallas isn't spending to the cap, it isn't a bad deal... depending on the other pieces

Always liked Horcoff. If he wasn't horribly overpaid I'd welcome him here.

Why does it feel like there is still a piece coming from Edmonton that will surprise us.

I wouldn't the last couple of years he's been on the far left side of worthless on the ice and in terms of salary.

They are "nitpicking" at things and the deal may not get done today according to 630 CHED.

by nitpicking, do you mean "sobering up" and realizing what they're doing?

I wonder if Nil got a little drunk after the early trade today, picked up the phone and demanded a useless t%t and then realized that he drunk dialed the Oilers instead of a local escort agency.
