Afternoon Delight: Kopitar is a rich King

  • Anze Kopitar signed a seven year contract extension today for $47.6 million.  Almost every young star in the league is signing long term for big money these days.  At $6.8 per season against the cap, the Kings are only raising the salary bar once again. 
  • Luckily Bryan McCabe didn’t break his back last night and is listed as day-to-day.  A sigh of relief for all Panthers fans.
  • Calgary’s possible line combinations for tonight’s game versus Vancouver. Will probably change throughout the game.
  • Nigel Dawes is a healthy scratch for the Rangers tonight.  He just hasn’t been producing.
  • Jose Theodore is expected to get the start tonight for the Capitals.  Can’t be any worse than last night…At least that’s what Caps fans are telling themselves.
