      I think I paid $105 per credit and a discounted rate if you took between 12 and 18 credits. My slide rule cost $19.95. My how times have changed!

        Keep an open mind. Just don't be so open-minded that your brain falls out.

            The engineering school to the north, on the other hand... well...

              GLM will hopefully correct me, but I seem to recall that the signing bonuses are limited to a percentage of the overall contract...the figures I heard for Jerry was 900k if he makes the Leafs and 70k give or take for playing for the Marlies...plus 250+k signing bonus. Total value somewhere near 1.2mil. ish.
              Yeah burgie12 citing CapGeek was a good move and you're both right.

              Jerry's deal is for $1.2 million total because of the bonuses. They cite the total amount on CapGeek because that's how the NHL factors the money against the cap. The bonuses get counted right away.

              Pirri signed a max contract with bonuses so it'll be somewhat similar to Jerry's contract, although he's not likely going to see time in the NHL unless things go south BADLY for the guys on Chicago's third and fourth lines. If they need a boost of offense, he could get a look. I think they'd be happier if he just stays in Rockford all year though.

              Obviously they'll both get less money for playing in the AHL but that's how the system works.

                I've been to several games at Lynah, thank you very much. There was even an "acquaintance", as it were, once.

                Everyone gives their respect to different teams and their hatred to different teams. Like I said, I'm probably in the minority on this one, and it looks like that is fact. I think we may have to agree to disagree.

                And AspyDad, I absolutely despise the Yankees. So, when it comes to that rivalry, yes, I would root for the Red Sox.

                    All right, now we can afford to grumble a little bit. Brandon Pirri's contract details from CapGeek.

                    Boil it down this way: If he makes the NHL, his cap hit is worth $648,333, just over half of what Jerry D'Amigo would make if he makes the NHL. In the AHL both he and Jerry will be making $67,500 a year.

                    The point here, though, is that the money, in this case given that he's a 2nd round pick (versus Jerry whereas he was a sixth rounder), doesn't appear to be worth it. This, of course, just plays into most of our feelings that he jumped too soon. C'est la vie.

                          My recollection is that in my freshman year tuition was $1600 per year. It was $1800 the next two years and $2050 when I was a senior. That would make the cost per credit considerably less than $100. I don't recall what my sliderule cost.

                            Wow looking at those numbers makes me think that he either a. felt the need to go pro after Jerry left, b. had some sort of fallout once Monty left, or c. owed some guys named Sal, Vinny, and Vito money and needed cash quickly.
                            Loyality means sticking with a thing in good and bad times. Not willing to do that, stay home, I got this.

                              54 grand a year?! Talk about prestige pricing.... my last year I think was around 47k. My slide rule was free, though (used my father's).
