NHL... whats happening??

[Gimsai]

I wonder where are gonna all those players play this year...

A lot of them are in Europe, in sweden, finland, switzerland etc. A few are in Germany, Marco Sturm (Ingolstadt), Olaf Kölzig(Berlin), Jean-Sebastian Giguere(Hamburg), and some others.

Are they payed there better than they were at NHL?

in the NHL they make MILLIONS!

I think most of them don't play for money in Europe. They're keeping themselves in shape, so that they don't get fat when the next NHL season starts!

well they might get paid but not much, tho i think is it Wayde Blake? who plays for the Maple leafs now plays for Coventry here in England, he gets a free house and car

But all NHL players who have left USA and Canada and now play in Europe have a Clause on there contract saying "when the NHL starts again they can go back to it at anytime"
