I like Dozzer, but when he's wrong he's spectacularly wrong. This was regarding Hakanpaa literally a day (maybe two) before he signed.

Admittedly I thought that since he didn’t sign in the first week of September there wasn’t a chance… but yup, I was wrong

I'm old enough to remember when Ricky Romero was the future.

I'm old enough to remember when Toronto the Good was outraged that the Blue Jays gave Bill Caudill a million dollar contract - because nobody should make that much money just to play a game.

I never said what he’s suggesting but nice try.

Players don’t give a rats ass about their cap hit, it’s their take home they care about, so if he couldn’t get the signing bonus while living under far less taxation he’d either cost way more or would sign down in the low taxation states.

You're fresh off of making a comment accusing everyone else of knowing everything. Now you're literally making a comment insinuating you know everything about their pay priorities.

Choo Choo.

You think I’m wrong when I say the take home of their contract is more important than a cap hit? I know there’s some who differ but not the majority. The way contracts get written out these days more than proves that. Look at Matthews, captain of the team, gets paid a minimum salary while receiving all the money July 1st from signing bonuses, would you not consider that evidence that it’s take home that matters? JT suing the CRA is another example.

But whatever, believe what you want, I’ll stick to news and payout patterns

Always a good show watching the Dozzer train run off a cliff.

I didn't think Haak was signing either... a few hours later.....

I mean yeah sure that sounds logical, I'm just not gonna say everything like its fact while accusing everyone else of doing the same.

It helps soften the blow if you're routinely wrong.

I mean we can all be right. We can all be wrong. I think though it’s safe to say I’m right when I say:

Tre will trade for William Karlsson to fill the Leafs 2C hole at some point season.

Well at least JT vs CRA is a fact so at least I got that I guess.

And everyone is routinely wrong, big whoop *shrugs*
