Providence Bruins General Discussion thread XI - Providence Bruins to play abbreviated season in Massachusetts

[Saxon Eric]

Do the Bruins have enough players for the AHL?

They do, assuming the waiver players show and not head overseas

 

[DominicT]

The above might mess with my lineup

"If you’re on a two-way contract, were cut by an NHL team and assigned to an NHL taxi squad, you hit the jackpot. Or at least you’re going to be paid 100 percent of your minor league salary. But if you’re on a two-way contract and were assigned to the AHL, well, you’re plumb out of luck.
Because not only won’t you receive so much as a penny leading up to the start of a severely truncated season set to begin on Feb. 5, once the AHL does get underway there is no telling what you will be paid on a prorated contract. There is no current agreement in force between the PHPA (Professional Hockey Players’ Association) and the league’s governing bodies."


"You do the math. If players’ pay is strictly prorated, a player on a 24-game team making $70,000 would earn the grand total of $20,487 — before taxes. Players on teams on 42-game schedules would then earn a pre-tax $35,853 that they’d shouldn’t spend in one place.
Come on, man.
And in addition, these players have not been paid since receiving their final 2019-20 paychecks in the middle of April. That’s nine months. It may be nobody’s fault, but there is a crisis consuming the bedrock of the NHL’s development and it is crushing a wave of prospects."

I like Larry, usually knows his CBA stuff and the financial part of the game, but....

1) Players with contracts to NHL clubs on loan to the AHL are paid by the NHL clubs, not AHL clubs.

2) Players with NHL contracts on loan are bound by the NHL CBA and not the AHL CBA.

So, whatever was decided in the NHL Memorandum of Understanding is what decides how players on loan get paid and not the AHL.

From the AHL CBA

It is recognized that Players who are signed to a National Hockey League (NHL) contract are bound by that contract, and the terms and conditions thereof while they are assigned to an AHL Club. It is agreed that no provision of this Agreement shall be applicable to a player playing under the NHL contract if such provision conflicts with his benefits or obligations as set forth in his NHL contract.

Who did Didier play with last season? Is Vaakanainen capable of playing the right side?

Didier was with Zboril and did a great job keeping him grounded
Vaakanainen is capable and should play games on his off side for further development

Boston is so thin at RHD prospects, I hope Lyle plays well and earns an ELC.

 

[DominicT]

By all accounts, and I've seen limited video, he played well in Slovakia.

He'll be 22 by the time (IF) he signs an NHL deal, so that's only a 2 year deal.

I think they are "looking at him" to see if he can be a future Kevan Miller replacement down the road.

 

[Saxon Eric]

13 home 13 away
Latest start time 3pm

 

[Saxon Eric]

All that's missing now is a roster

Providence Bruins getting ready to launch a one-of-a-kind season

 

[Ratty]

Wow, odd season indeed. Looks like they're trying to get the most of all the time they have. There's no experience like actual game experience. Hope it works out.

Brady Lyle looks like he’s got some offense to his game!

Got word back a little while ago that I’ll be able to cover the M-Bruins this year in Marlborough. I won’t be going to all the games, mostly because I’m trying to stay home as much as possible, but I’ll certainly be at them. Should be a weird, enjoyable season with unique stories and memories.

 

[SanDogBrewin]

Interesting how the camera angles will be and more so the feed from Marlborogh will look on AHL.tv

Wow that was some pretty potent offensive flair ... looking forward to hearing more about Lyle.

 

[DominicT]

The only thing I know for sure is if he makes it to the NHL with the Bruins he won't get number 33.

Lord knows after this past year we could sure use another Brady around here.
