He doesn't have to go into the office day to day to cause a lot of damage. The wrong piece of advice at the wrong time is enough to throw the ship off course.

Possibly, but Fletcher was gung-ho for Risto for years. It would be great if he could admit on his way out that trading a 1st and a 2nd for him (and another 2nd to clear's Ghost's cap room) was a bad idea.

Flyers trade Claude Giroux (50% retained-$4.1375m) to Arizona for future considerations

Arizona trades Claude Giroux (50% retained-$2.06m) to Colorado for 2024 3rd Round Pick

I was under the impression that the sum total of retained salary for a player across all teams must <= 50%. I certainly hope that is the case, else it (salary cap retention ceiling) makes no sense whatsoever.

I wonder how many players can retire at the end of this season and collect insurance for their contract for being medically unfit to play

Hayes
Ellis
?? Who else

Send them to a career ending " orthopedic specialist" and be done with it

Kudos to the world class medical staff, and Fletchy the pantload on stellar acquisitions.

I was also but this is all I could find

When a team trades a player, they have the option to retain a part of their salary (and cap hit). The team who retains the salary then pays the retained percentage of the salary, and also retains the percentage of the cap hit until the contract expires. The following requirements must be met to retain salary:
The percentage retained cannot exceed 50 percent of the player’s salary (including all bonuses) and Salary Cap Hit.
The same percentage must be retained for both the player’s salary and Salary Cap Hit, and cannot be modified.
All teams are limited to a maximum of 3 retained salary contracts per season.
Teams cannot retain an aggregate amount of more than 15 percent of the Salary Cap Upper Limit.
Players’ contracts are limited to 2 retained salary transactions per contract.

Expected to return in 3 to 4 weeks?? What a terrible break he has been awesome all year. How will we manage without him. Now move Frost to 2C and let him sink or swim

I think this means cumulative.

Else, teams could trade a 10 million player to another say 9 teams in succession, each receiving team getting a 4th line prospect , say, until finally someone gets a the 10 mil player for 1 mil.

Doesn't the last line prevent that?

I think it does also but it doesn't explicitly say that. Like you said, if it wasn't then the 50% would be completely meaningless if each time a team could retain 50% of what is left.
