Too bad. Sounds like he was a true hockey fanatic. He musta had a lot of friends inside the league to get the info he did. Regardless of what Buttman says, the league is a little poorer today.
The Cup is soooooo ours!!!!!!!

Very sad news. He gave all hockey fans a great site loaded with information, useful information. Hope his wife can sell it for a ton of coin!

Strangely, Capgeek seems to be back up, or perhaps I'm missing something. :?

A google search for "Capgeek Canucks cap chart" comes up with a result to Capgeek.org - it seems to have the 2015 Canucks payroll chart.

Archived, it's not current. Doesn't show Kenins, Clendening etc. good for a quick look to get an idea but not current. Try teams that made TDD deals and see if it's accurate.

Ah, OK that explains it.
I guess someone switched it back on from the "Capgeek Unavailable" splashpage. :eh:

Still it seems strange, if I was suddenly diagnosed with something terminal, I'd want to pass on as much value to wife/kids, and pulling the plug is only going to detract from the ultimate sale value

Just because he died of colon cancer is no reason to infer he was a cancerous asshole.
Over the Internet, you can pretend to be anyone or anything.

I'm amazed that so many people choose to be complete twats.

No shit (hah!). The guy was a journalist, and I don't think that site was ever created to make him rich.
