Sv: NHL eller Inte?
Modoante: Jomenvisst, fast det torde väl ändå göras försök både här och där med pengar "under bordet". En sån som Sidney Crosby lär väl ändå få så pass bra med pengar från sina pinfärska sponsorskontrakt att han kan klara sig med "futtiga" 850.000 dollar i rookielön.

Ett litet tankeexperiment från Jes Gölbez:

"Now, I have an idea...a very simplistic idea, but one that makes total sense.

OK, the Canucks are owned by Orca Bay Sports and Entertainment, right? They run the separate entities of General Motors Place (the building) and the Vancouver Canucks (the team).

Now, say that the arena (as a seperate company) signs Joe Sakic to a $6,000,000 contract to lick envelopes and a few menial office chores, and then have the team pay him $5,000,000 to actually play hockey?

How about Orca Bay Enterprises setting up a seperate company that sells T-shirts? This company would have no relation to the Canucks whatsoever.

They could pay Ilya Kovalchuk $6,000,000 to model t-shirts and then pay him seperately with the hockey team? They could pay players some good salaries, but a bit chunk of the salary wouldn't be paid by the actual team and they would be paid for non-hockey services. The Payroll Range isn't supposed to include outside contracts (like Sidney's Gatorade deal), right?"
