How does the rule read? Could you launder the player through multiple teams and get them back?

You can't retain salary trading a player away and then trade for him back in the same season or a calendar year.

But the Rangers would not be retaining salary, they would trade him away, then get him back reduced.

Good point. I gotta try to find the rule, if it exists.

From a Hawks fan….if we aren’t willing to do this. What’s the point of the whole rebuild? We are there through the rebuild it’s time to take off!

Kravtsov, Zac Jones, ‘24 first and ‘24 fifth…I mean cmon

Didn't Washington and Colorado do this once with Brooks Orpik? I think it made the league mad at the time.

While I agree the return could be underwhelming, letting players walk for nothing is just bad asset management.

We gotta give them something. This is at least comparable to Giroux, which is a very similar situation, and player.

Kravtsov unfortunately isn’t worth a damn thing. It’s almost addition by subtraction just getting him out of the room imo

I think you're right, TJ. I remember something about not being allowed to pay less than 25% of the contract of a player on your roster. So, that would be 2 other teams at the max of 50% retention.

It would be nuts if they allowed 3 teams on the book for a player that isn’t theirs

But i think Giroux had given the team options, not sure Kane will.

there really isn't any choice, the Rangers can only possibly do this when they have the most cap space possible and that will be at 3pm on deadline day
