And if Toronto doesn't make this trade, is there a franchise that would? Buffalo? Vancouver? Would those franchises collapse from icing an AHL level team for 6 years?

To Toronto: the last two Stanley Cups.
To Florida: half of Toronto's salary cap for the next 6 years.

With so many teams under the salary cap, is it possible that the owners will owe the players at the end of the season (reverse escrow)?

What if I'm a women's hockey fan, watching the Minnesota Frost?

No, I pick whatever word pops into my head when I start. I suppose if that was your go-to starting word, it might be time for a new one.

Yeah, it makes more sense to me when thinking about it as "forecast". Weather sites universally think you don't care about the past, and only the future. (Every time I've wondered "how cold did it actually get yesterday?" It's been a pain in the butt to find.)

Listed low on every weather site is "over night low". So the 5 degrees is the temp it will be at 5 am (or whatever) tomorrow morning. Yesterday's low was how cold it was this morning, and warming up from there.

No, there is not.
