Same same. I realized $9,850 was a TON of money in 1920 & was trying to figure out how the h-e-double-hockey-sticks he was dropping today's equivalent of $15 million for one game 😂
Finally some insight on what putting money on the board is all about. I've heard about it but never understood why it was done or what it was about. Thanks for shedding some light on it
Cool stuff man. Was there ever money on the board to fight someone? Like someone on the other team threw a dirty hit last time you played and whoever fights him gets the money?
What perls left out is the ugly money on the board. Knocking a player out of the game A fight Things if that nature are what I saw at minor pro training camp as a player and as an eq manager minor pro . That's where the ugly money is. Love the work your doing perls!
Nah not really.. when someone signed was more like good for them! Especially if they got more than you it was almost better because you then know oh man maybe then I can get that… the guys who were jealous are the guys who didn’t last long, 1-2 years. U get weeded out in nhl really quick
@@Bubzp11 I hear stories about guys who refuse to go to the minors or back to the juniors, I think Drouin did that early in his career the same with Rutger Mcgroarty with the Jets.
Thanks for that info. Can you explain the part of your pay that is held in like a escrow account not sure if that’s what you call it. Great channel for all us hockey fans
Awesome videos! You mention in the video that you didn't really like a guy, can you do a video on how those dynamics work in the locker room? No names needed or even teams names. At the end of the day you are both put on the team to play well together and win a championship whether you like a guy or not. How does everyone deal with always being around someone they might not enjoy, but still training and cooperating every day without animosity? It's extremely rare for the public to ever see any outward displays of conflict, but i bet there's more than some people might think. It's inevitable that when you stuff 20 random dudes in a locker room/plane/bus they're not always going to see eye to eye on everything.
This would actually be the best way to do it if they did it like I think they did. They can “take it off” your paycheque so it is pre tax money that is written off as a business expense for the team, and the money the player puts up basically goes twice as far as NHL players in AB are basically at a 50% tax rate on anything over $160k. When the guys pay cash they are paying post tax income. But maybe it doesn’t work like that with contracts and stuff, I pay employees in Alberta but I don’t have experience with guaranteed contracts like NHL players have.
When it says something like 11 - 2000 1000tr , does that mean 2000 total with 1000 to the team and 1000 to the trainers, or is it 2000 to the team and another 1000 to the trainers? Great content, I never heard about the board till now.
Very interesting stuff, thanks for sharing. However this sounds like it could backfire and give a reason for some players to want to lose, even you had your example of not feeling so bad about losing to Boston so you didn't have to pay up and it was only like $500... Sounds like someone could easily at least try to "rig" a game to some extent by paying a player or some players to play poorly, especially the lower-level players who aren't paid as much.
How is this not considered gambling on your own sport/team?? Because you pay or don't pay depending on if you win.... and the pressure from the others to put money in... that's difficult.
Hey no worries bro I don't even know what day it is half the time either😅JK, I realized u probably filmed this on a Monday. Love ur vids brother. I'm waiting for some cartel gun fight to break out haha
Love the videos and insider information but these videos would get more views if they were more concise. This one's over 21 minutes and should be between 5 and 10. Looking forward to more content though. Keep it up!
