CapFriendly was a NHL staple for salary cap and contract information for nearly a decade.
For nearly a decade, NHL fans went to one website and one website only for salary cap information.
On Wednesday, however, the hockey world had to say goodbye to CapFriendly — the salary cap and contract information website — after it was bought by the Washington Capitals. The news of the acquisition broke a month ago and was much-maligned by hockey fans due to the upcoming shuttering of such an important website, but CapFriendly was allowed to keep operating until after the start of NHL free agency on July 1.
Once the site closed its doors, CapFriendly posted a lengthy thank you note on Twitter and their website to everyone who made their operation possible over the last nine years.
Thank You!
After 9 years of late nights, early mornings, missed holidays and family events while diligently updating the website and developing tools, the CapFriendly team has made the decision to begin a new chapter and challenge!
The loss of CapFriendly is devastating to hockey fans and teams alike, as salary cap and contract information isn’t made available publicly in one place by the NHL itself. It will take some time to get used to this void, but other places like PuckPedia have already started to fill the holes left by CapFriendly’s absence.
Still, thank you for all the memories, CapFriendly.
