Habs picking up 24% of Zach's salary.

Benning is a genius!

Over the Internet, you can pretend to be anyone or anything.

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

I've read it's the other way around. Oilers retaining 24% of Scriverns' salary.

Benning got rid of a problem child for an old wrestler . Hopefully he can recoup his 5th rounder for Prust . I'm terrified Prust signs an extension for four years at Dorsett money +.

Weird. The Score sources to a tweet by Lebrun which has the Oilers retaining, and General Fanager already has Scrivens' $552 retained added to the Oilers cap.

Scrivens makes 2.5. Makes more sense Oilers retaining. Means both teams stay pretty much where they were cap wise. Everything I've read says oilers retain on Scrivens.

Montreal knows Price will be down for awhile and Scrivens will be given a chance to resurrect his career.

Edmonton fans none to pleased with acquiring Zack. Geesh it was just a broken jaw on Gagne! Obviously Chiarelli is tired of being pushed around and is hoping Zack can be Semenko. I still like the potential of Zack and am glad he is getting another chance. Wish him well, but does it have to be in our division!!

He already can really blow by defenders...maybe a little bump here or there will help

When he cranks it up you've pretty much gotta be rooted to the ice to slow him down.

Bakersfield is a rough Califormia town filled with meth labs and crack houses. It will be a good test for ole Zach "12 Steps" Kassian
