    Pucks and Palms Podcast Episode 40: Hart Levine of PuckPedia!

    PuckPedia is one of the best websites around to understand the intricacies of the salary cap and so much more, and Hart Levine came on the podcast to talk about starting the site, building it out as Capfriendly went away, the new CBA and so much more. Plus, you can hear his thoughts on what the Panthers might do as Matthew Tkachuk might need to be on LTIR for an extended period of time. Nothing is too obscure to talk about with someone who knows the cap and CBA better than almost anyone. Pucks and Palms is a reader-supported publication.

    Pucks and Palms Podcast Episode 39: Dom Luszczyszyn on contract value, signing bonuses and more

    While the rest of the NHL is at the cottage or the beach, the Pucks and Palms Podcast is still hard at work. Dom Luszczyszyn of the Athletic joins me to talk about a piece he wrote a couple of weeks ago, exploring how the Panthers squeeze so much value out of their contracts, focusing on signing bonuses as well, which I touched on too in a separate piece. We also look at how the entire strategy has come together, the flaws of it, as well as some general offseason talk at the end of the show. Pucks and Palms is a reader-supported publication.
