Brian Clarke

Known to some as the Best Goalie Ever TM. Most of those who know me as such have never seen me play. So I got that going for me, which is nice.

February 26, 2000 with @PJStockHNIC My "pro" debut as an @TheAHL backup for the @WolfPackAHL #tbt

@SayItIsSoJoe A little tribute jersey we did for him a couple years back. He’s the one not in pads, but he’s still playing.

@FriedgeHNIC Who gets #72 ? 😛

[Brian Clarke @realbc30]

@FreetheTruth17 @spittinchiclets No one said it wouldn’t be

@stg_resnov @bridgetteproulx Starting this season, EBUGs are team employees.

[Brian Clarke @realbc30]

@AsturiasMT @TrungTPhan First thing I thought of

[Brian Clarke @realbc30]

@Lightningb97 @frank_seravalli @GoldenKnights Because he’s still being paid under the terms of his contract with Vegas.

[Brian Clarke @realbc30]

@Zeeko8 @frank_seravalli @GoldenKnights Any employee under contract needs permission to interview with another team. It’s not common to deny a request, but it isn’t remotely rare, either. If it was Detroit, they’d probably allow it. A division rival? Less likely

[Brian Clarke @realbc30]

@jarematmul @frank_seravalli @GoldenKnights Not while Vegas is paying him. Even though they “relieved him of his duties”, he’s still getting paid to the end of the contract term.

[Brian Clarke @realbc30]

@klr_ugly @frank_seravalli @GoldenKnights Nope. No compensation involved. The league ended that in 2016

[Brian Clarke @realbc30]

@realmikealosco @JarrettSim2 @frank_seravalli @PuckReportNHL @GoldenKnights Nope - compensation for coaches and executives went away in 2016

[Brian Clarke @realbc30]

@pdlandry @frank_seravalli @GoldenKnights Draft pick compensation for coaches ended a decade ago

[Brian Clarke @realbc30]

@MelvinB00042718 @DonnieandDhali NHL contracts cannot be restructured. Only the NFL does that

Winter Olympians:

-I’ve ruptured my ACL but I’m still going to ski 80mph down a hill of ice

-I’ve broken my arm but I’m still going to jump 30 ft into the air on my snowboard while twisting and flipping at the same time

NBA Players:

-I played yesterday. Gonna take today off

@98GMonaghan98 @reporterchris September 15 as stated in the post

[Brian Clarke @realbc30]

@braves2430 NBA, since I’m already not watching it for free

[Brian Clarke @realbc30]

@DallasStars @dennysoetaert @daveartofficial @NHL Otters playing poker was right there, though

[Brian Clarke @realbc30]

@SproketJky @RussoHockey More money sooner. Potential tax advantages. Makes it nearly impossible to be bought out, because team will not get cap relief.

[Brian Clarke @realbc30]

@FFSKI414 @RussoHockey It’s a standard contract under the current CBA. Cap recapture no longer exists. That was for nonstandard contracts signed 2013 or prior. Because it’s structured with bonuses, it’s almost impossible to buy out, anyway

@AlleyM16 @NHLRumourReport Maybe not over 10 million, but we just going to forget about Bobrovsky and his 10 million?
