Maybe Kane gets extended on the cheap because he realizes with guys like Marchessault and Bailey making 5 mil there is next to 0 chance he gets much, if any more.

You're just flat wrong. Look it up. Cap Friendly has all the facts on it.

What are u talking about?
When someone goes on LTIR like Hosea, Pronger, Etc
They don’t count against the Cap during the regular season

It counts against their offseason #
Which u can exceed by 10% i believe
Then comes off when the season starts

Again, completely wrong.

It will take you 5 seconds to open the Hawks on cap friendly and see that he does count against their caps. A few more clicks will take you to their LTIR FAQ page.

The first thing it will tell you is: "When a player is placed on LTIR, their cap hit remains on the teams cap payroll and it continues to count as it always did".

Ok... it’s obviously complicated

But essentially LTIR for Hossa (or whoever) allows teams to go over the Cap during the season if they need it

Basically makes Hossa’s contract a non-factor

There are significant impacts to utilizing LTIR. It's not a non-factor. Watch the LTIR teams operate at the trade line. Laugh at Toronto when they roll 3.5m of bonuses into next season. It has real impacts.

Don’t the bonuses always hit the team the following season?

No, they count in the current year, if you have space. LTIR relief does not count.

Cap friendly even shows it in their projections.

Murray and his snake oil.

Never had me fooled from day one.

The Murray purge continues this deadline.

- GERBE!!!75PTS


They're stupid "jokes", they don't even make sense.

As far as Martin is concerned, he's a (frank)ing adult. He should've gone to a doctor a long time ago. No excuse, at all.

I know the Rangers did it,
but i was thinking it was because they had trades almost done
Looks like they did with Grabner,
but not Nash

I don’t really remember teams sitting players before the deadline

Maybe i just wasn’t paying much attn though?

He's basically making fun of the fake Insiders to see if they post his stuff

For a second I thought this was a Haiku. FYI, Mr. Basil was on here and is pissed you told this board his daughter is banging YEEEEEEEEEEichel. May need to reconcile with him.
