I remember that hit, went off on own steam but the colour commentator noticed he went off in some discomfort. Hope it is nothing major, he’s been plagued by injuries in his young career.

 

[Peasy]

Tough to be a regular NHLer if you cant stay healthy...

Really unfortunate, but this is just how his career has been ever since being drafted.

I mean the thread title says long term so...yeah

 

[A1LeafNation]

Our own TBL cap strategy. Sounds interesting.

MRI will determine how bad it is, so we'll see. I updated the title to reflect that. At minimum it will be a few weeks Im guessing.

 

[BertCorbeau]

One of those guys that just had shit luck with injuries/staying healthy.

 

[HockeyVirus]

Doesn't this solve our cap issues now? If we have Benoit as our 7th D we should be able to afford a full lineup if we waive Lafferty for a league min player like Robertson or Gregor

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

Unbelievable. He’s been playing so well too.

That injury to Timmins doesn’t help the lineup as it’s probably just IR right now. But it probably gets cap relief through SOIR-

What is the season opening injured reserve (SOIR)?​

If a player who is on a two-way contract becomes disabled during training-camp or who reports to training-camp disabled as the result of a hockey related injury incurred during the off-season, they can be placed on season-opening injured reserve, to possibly obtain cap relief. It is notable that the SOIR equations are not the same as the daily rate equations in CBA 15.6, which is instead used to calculate the players daily salary (as opposed to cap hit).

Full Cap Hit​

Players who are on a one-way contract, or players on a two-way contract who accrued 50 or more NHL games in the previous season count fully against the cap hit. Teams can opt to place these players on LTIR to obtain cap-relief (LTIR FAQ).

Discounted Cap Hit​

Players on a two-way contract, who accrued 1-49 NHL games in the previous season, count against the teams cap hit; however, the reduced cap hit is calculated as follows:
Multiply the players NHL cap hit by the total accrued NHL daysin the previous season, and divide by the total number of days in the previous season (Ex: 186 for 2014-15)

He played 25 games
Cap 1,100,000
October 7, 2022 – June 13, 2023= 250 days

110,000 discounted cap hit.

 

[Magic Man]

Should have kept Curt Douglas.

 

[stickty111]

Thats not good. He was having a great camp too. Would have made decisions tougher with everyone healthy.

 

[PromisedLand]

Sucks Ass but….

some silver lining I suppose. We won’t have to risk losing him on waivers

Lafferty isn't getting waived.

 

[HockeyVirus]

Lafferty isn't getting waived.

I didn't think he would be either but I think Gregor brings what Lafferty does for likely 500k cheaper.

 

[LeafChief]

I didn't think he would be either but I think Gregor brings what Lafferty does for likely 500k cheaper.

I honestly think they will have both in the opening night lineup.

 

[Gabriel426]

Sucks to be him, as he was playing so well in pre-season.

Hope he recovers well and come back stronger with the Leafs.

 

[HockeyVirus]

I honestly think they will have both in the opening night lineup.

I don't see how. We were already going to either run short or waive someone. This way if we waive Lafferty and Timmons is on LTIR that gives over 2M in cap space which can fit in Benoit and Gregor giving us 12F and 7D. If we keep Lafferty and Gregor then we will run only 6D which historically our coaches do not do

 

[DarkKnight]

I honestly think they will have both in the opening night lineup.

Yep, Lafferty isn’t going anywhere. At least to start…

 

[Magic Man]

One option would be to move Jarnkrok.

Gregor, McMann, Benoit and Jones are all protected from waivers giving us depth at each position without the risk of casualties on waivers.

Holmberg could be an option to replace one of the waiver candidates if they so choose as he is probably the best replacement for Jarnkrok. Maybe, a month or two into the year once they find out what they have in the others.

Robertson and Timmins are bouncing around until they can stay healthy.

 

[VanW27]

I didn't think he would be either but I think Gregor brings what Lafferty does for likely 500k cheaper.

Not that it matters much, more for general knowledge. The current NHL minimum is 775k, Lafferty makes 1.15.

So the most you could possibly save is 375k

 

[Maple Leaf]

Good thing we have a healthy klingberg

Joffrey Timmins
This guy cant catch a break.

Timmins deal is 1 way

Sounds like it's might be long enough for full LTIR anyway
