What? There's no market for NIL contracts for college hockey yet? Basketball and gymnastics, yes -- hockey, no?

Some schools are good at NIL others sucks.

LTIR still operates during the offseason when the 10% overage cushion is in effect. Even without Murray on LTIR they were only ~$6.7M over the cap, which is inside that 10% cushion, because Muzzin has been on there for awhile

Can LTIR be used in the off-season?
Yes, LTIR can be used in the off-season while the 10% off-season cushion is active. LTIR in the off-season is calculated using the basic equation outlined above, which permits a team to exceed the off-season salary cap. To use off-season LTIR the team must provide doctors proof that the player in question will continue to be injured at the beginning of the regular season for 10 NHL games and 24 calendar days.

At the start of the season the teams LTIR relief & ACSL is recalculated when the 10% cushion is removed.

I meant by going pro

I saw Oppenheimer yesterday. Sean Avery in a couple of scenes as a "weatherman." They did their best to keep him covered with a rain poncho.

I thought the part where he was like “I’m Oppenheimer, bit ch” was an odd choice

Similarly, I thought when he asked the weatherman, "What did the 5 fingers say to the face?" was a bit out of the theme of the movie.

At first, it seemed like they were rushing through the dialogue to fit the story into their 3-hour timeframe but the pacing was good throughout and, although it seemed like it had a manufactured Hollywood ending, that part is true -- so it had that going for it.

I'd read about his part in Oppenheimer; I didn't know he also had a part in another Nolan movie, Tenet.

But he can still sign with us for the minimum right

No, but the Senators can trade him back to us at the deadline and retain half

notice how it's a 1 year deal. he can then be traded to us, with a 3rd team also retaining salary and it only be 1.25mil cap hit...

They could easily make the playoffs with this roster

Can't wait for Ottawa to out perform and finish higher than the Leafs this season!

Would have to waive his full no trade he just signed, so doubt it.

I think he insisted on a NTC so he can control where he goes at the next deadline, which obviously is back to the Rangers for a 6th rounder

Yea I thought that as well, kind of weird to do a full NTC on a one year deal. But I think he is pissed the multi year offers didn’t Happen like he planned. Wants full control for this transition year is his career

He may also be waiting out the cap to, in his eyes, hopefully get a more lucrative contract with some term next year

Exactly, why only a one year deal

I mean I guess if the season goes poorly in Ottawa then he has control if/where he goes somewhere else in a trade. But if they're on the edge of playoff contention like last year again he probably stays so he doesn't have to keep moving around every six months for 2 years straight. Presuming that he'll very possibly be going to another new team in FA next summer
