Capped

Welcome back my Salary Cap-friendlies and I’d like to just say…happy New Year’s! It didn’t really feel like hockey season but once that first game started, we were all the way back.

Now that the fantasy playoffs are over, I hope that you won your league’s championship to earn those sweet bragging rights amongst your friends or have managed to add a few extra bucks to your bank account. The most grueling part of the season is over and now you can look towards next season to [...]
