Win for Coyotes bc they were below the salary cap FLOOR, so now Pronger counts on their payroll. They actually will pay him $500,000. Loominomics at its best.
Funny sidelight: Pronger had to waive his no-trade.
I'm gonna' look at this deal a little closer in my spare time ... sounds like some sort of collusion going on,
... whatya' guys gonna' do with all that cap space anyway?
... Good for Philly,
