The 20 most overpaid NHLers making more than $4.0M per year: Gomez makes the list!
More than one quarter into the 2011-12 NHL season, it’s time to have a look at the most overpaid NHLers who don’t contribute as much as their team and the general manger who signed them would like.

Mike Augello: WITH FINGER WAIVED, IS A MOVE AFOOT??
The Maple Leafs finally did yesterday what most keen observers thought was a no-brainer, putting defenseman Jeff Finger on waivers. Unless some NHL general manager has mistakenly taken a dosage of hallucinogens or taken leave of his senses, Finger will clear waivers at Noon today and report to the AHL Marlies.
This decision could be the opening move in a game of NHL chess, with...
Finger Gets Cut
He Sure Does!Mark today on your calendar boys and girls, October 12, 2010 is the day the Leafs roster became $3,500,000 lighter. While this probably should have happened at this time last season, it serves the same benefits as it would have then, and we have the added bonus of a deeper defensive unit and a buried Finger this season means Lebda, Richmond and Lashoff getting ice time...

Could Leafs Move Jeff Finger In a Package?
Jeff Finger has become a pariah in Toronto, as Brian Burke continues to sign defensemen on to the club while not trading any away. He takes a lot of heat for the fact that he has a bloated contract while being a completely serviceable defender, and a consummate professional while spending much of the season in the press-box due to an overcrowded blue line. The situation is clearly...
