from the CP via TSN,
Anyone who played in the NHL last season can expect to receive a nice little bonus by the end of the month.
A source tells The Canadian Press that the players will be given back all of the money they paid into escrow last season….
Some players will receive fairly sizable cheques.
For example, Daniel Briere and Scott Gomez each earned US$10 million last season. They’ll both get back the $950,000 they paid into escrow plus interest and an additional $48,000 or so to cover the shortfall in overall salary payments.
