I would like 20 players registered with a salary cap, a figure that each team agrees on,

It is very important we get the players registered as early as possible.

As you say, the salary cap is a problem. If we wanted to get Corey Simon, we couldn't have made that happen, maybe because of the salary cap. It's not like we weren't looking at every good player that we foresee being available. But we have to be honest and realistic with what we can get done given our salary cap.

Absolutely, but in today's game, where are we going to go with the (salary) cap? I am (upset) at what is happening there because I thought our team played very well tonight. And this has gone on for quite a while. Is there other options out there? We can't do (anything).

This first year [under the league's salary cap economic system] we're going to see what we have,

It wouldn't be the worst thing in the world if we didn't have a salary cap.
