player preference deal is not a term I've ever heard used in hockey. Is that an American term?

Yes I was wondering the same thing Ron. Or it's some sort of unionized NDP slang for the hockey world.

Not exactly sure where the roots or definition of "player preference" came from, however, I don't remember NOT using it around the fantasy, rotiserrie, or simulation hockey leagues. Personally, I think it is a good description of a deal with the following parameters: A GM deals a player to another organization for someone of similar age, ability, position, and contract. Deals like this typically take place when players are underachieving or not fitting into a particular system very well. The move, in theory, provides both downtrodden players with a new environment and system in hopes of achieving positive line chemistry. Stay tuned for one, two, or six from Anaheim.  |

Well explained Mark... you were the first person I saw use the term and it made perfect sense to me...

Can we please use proper hockey terminology, like no female reporters allowed in the dressing room?

I'm surprised Jade uses such big words in the first place, but I guess when you spend most of your day saying things like: "Don't tell your parents" "My wife and kids are out of town .. who wants to have a sleep over at the teacher's house?" "This never happened" "Please erase the texts I sent" You want to branch out and use some bigger words!  |
