Alfie's Condition
« on: April 14, 2012, 10:56:20 PM »
Just worried about Hagelins dirty hit on Alfie, and he never came back after either.
Anyone who knows his status?

No idea but Hagelin better get suspended for that intentional hit to the head.

Shanahan is going to have a busy day tomorrow based on all the crap going on in todays games.
The Refs have lost control of all the series it seems when they decided to put their whistles away.

They have to call the game consistently.  I don't care if it's preseason or the 7th game of the Stanley Cup final.  Just call the game as it's supposed to be called.

The only way I see someone getting five games in the playoffs is if he lumber chops someone with their stick across the face.

This at most would get two games.

Carkner's hearing with Shanahan is going on as I type this.  Guess getting thrown out as the instigator - which was warranted - is potentially not enough for filling in Boyle.

I heard that MacLean is doing a press conference later on this afternoon.  I think around 4 p.m.  Since the conference was announced in the late morning, leads me to believe that Alfie's condition will be on the agenda.

He flew back with the team, which is apparently a good sign.

Apparently he feels fine, but unsure about Monday's skate.
Isn't Hagelin having a hearing? I wouldn't be surprised if they were waiting for the outcome of that before announcing Alfies status.

Ya, just saw that on the tsn ticker.  Good.  Prick did it on purpose and now he loses a pretty decent chunk of change of playoff coin.

Hope Alfie is okay and isn't out for too long.

I thought players werent paid in the playoffs   :smily677:

And 3 games is a reasonable suspension considering how lenient Shanahan has been lately, its more than I expected.

And if Alfie was ok to fly and he feels pretty good today, he'll be fine.

It is if the text I received from TSN is real. :)

I posted in the series thread to keep this about Alfie. :)

I thought players werent paid in the playoffs   :smily677:

They aren't paid as part of the cap or salary but I believe they receive a percentage of the gate haul.  They may be playing for the Stanley Cup but I doubt they play for free since ticket prices go up A LOT come playoff time.

Seriously?  Thats why ticket prices go up so high in the playoffs?  To pay their salaries.

Did a bit of research on this because I was curious. There isn't much in the way of credible information on how playoff payments work, but here's what I've been able to gather:


Teams that make the post-season pay into a league-central playoff fund. The exact percentage of revenues they pay is based on that team's total gate revenues (top 10 pay 50%, middle 10 pay 40%, last 10 pay 30%). Any money left in other funds will be included in the total payouts as well. Out of those funds, teams are paid based on how far they progress, and receive the same amount whether they play 4 or 7 games. The amount they receive pays for players, coaches, trainers, and other staff, so comparatively, it doesn't come to much. There are also bonuses for certain milestones and awards (such as the President's, Art Ross, Conn Smythe, and Norris trophies, and of course, the Stanley Cup).


That info's based on the CBA, and the only credible article I could find from 1998:
