Anyone on here that's in the Drumheller area have a basement suite or bedroom to rent. Jr took a job in Drumheller and needed a place to stay during the week to save some cash.

Agreed. A dollar of cap space is worth the same in every market. Florida's tax break belongs to the player, not the team. What surprises me is how nobody talks about the RCA. Canadian teams can put part of a player's salary into a Retirement Compensation Arrangement. Once he retires outside Canada, he withdraws it at roughly 25%. Net result: the same tax as "no tax" Florida, sometimes less. And far less than New York, Massachusetts or California. But sure, keep calling Canada a tax nightmare. #WeAreGoldStar!
The flaw in equating Kucherov’s Florida after-tax earnings to a $20M Montreal salary is that it treats Florida’s tax advantage as justification for Tampa paying him less. That tax advantage is a player benefit and not a discount Tampa is entitled to capture.

Just Awesome!
More of this, please. In the midst of our big moments and everyday demands, may we remember to reach out to another, lift them up, and welcome them in. To us, it may cost little. To a child, it can mean everything. Here is to seeing someone, making room for them, and taking a moment to give them a memory that can fuel their spirit, expand their horizons, and perhaps even change what they believe is possible. May we see more of this. May we be more of this.

See, militarily we r small but mighty 🇨🇦
Can I share something with you. As US Ambassador to Canada I met with many senior officers of the US Military and several told me if they were ever stuck in a foxhole under fire and they couldn’t have an American at their side they would undoubtedly want a Canadian at their side defending them. They said to my face there isn’t a better trained combat officer. They said this after serving with them in Afghanistan. Thank you Canada 🇨🇦

BREAKING: Canada has set a new all-time record for average diesel price: 228.6c/L and the U.S. may not be far behind.

#LetsGoOilers get a solid goalie 1st. The true opportunity in the UFA & Trade chaos, there will be a teams that will need to move cap $, Be the team to take advantage of this For a bottom 6 FW or 3rd pair dman. Chaos = Opportunity!!!

Nurse situation-should change in 1-3 days when all top 4 dmen and Werenski r off the market. If his trade list of teams can’t get a dman then we gain leverage on a deal. If SJ makes a big trade to improve maybe he waives to them? #LetsGoOilers
