So the move last night is no different from a cap space POV than moving him today?

If it happened after 5 p.m. yesterday, to my understanding it isn't. Actually thinking about it, it's legally exactly the same as it would be with an AHL transfer. Taxi squad = legally AHL. I think they have done cap purpose transfers to AHL for a couple of hours so that the player is in AHL at 5 p.m. Didn't that happen to Matthews once?
But take this coming from someone who apparently misuses the word "usurp".

Ok, it makes sense then. If they want to get him some games so he doesn't go "stale" and/or is now healthy, then moving him last night makes no difference than moving him today in terms of Cap, so I get it.

Unfortunately, Capfriendly doesn’t have times transactions occur. Saw that Geekie is an emergency loan vs regular call up. His salary is free of a cap hit.

I assume so. Plus, waiving him made some headlines, so it's kind of important PR-wise to underline that it was only a cap move by making his stay there as short as possible.
As long as you put it on upancakes, ufine by us. Now if you start using mysurp, then we got problems.

I made Maple Syrup while living up north. We had a lot of sugar maples on our property and when a neighbor moved, he gave me all of his sap buckets so I decided to make some syrup with my kids. The sap ran like crazy that year and I had buckets and coolers full of sap, so was using all 5 burners on our gas cooktop on high to boil it. Partway through, I set a metal spoon on the tempered glass top part of the cooktop, and it must have acted like a heat sink and with all the burners on high, it shattered the cooktop. My wife wasn't happy and so I went out an bought a turkey fryer to finish boiling it off outside. After all was said and done, we got about a gallon of syrup. Replacing the glass top cost about $200 and the turkey cooker was another $45, plus the gas and propane. Needless to say, at ~ $250 / gallon, we used that syrup judiciously.
It was also my last time making Maple Syrup.

The best $250 /gallon syrup I ever tasted.

As I said, "It was also my last time making Maple Syrup."
The Syrup was good, like pretty much any Maple Syrup.

I’m just gonna go ahead & say that some are definitely better than others.
I highly recommend Highland Sugarworks. Sooo good.
I used to work with a Quebec-based boss that had a maple syrup bar in his house. We went out to a maple syrup farm for a big meal where you put maple syrup on everything. It was a diabetes extravaganza.

So I did the math (hopefully right)
The difference in Gardiner’s taxi cap hit and roster cap hit is 9217 daily dollars.
Bean’s daily roster cap hit is 9568 dollars.
So the move of sending bean down and bringing Gardiner up saved 451 cap dollars. There it is.

Oh, I'm sure some people can taste the difference and some are better than others, but I'm not really one of them that notices much of a difference. Granted, I don't have maple syrup that often any more either. It's safe to say I've had 20-30 different Vermont Syrup's in my time and while I can notice a difference between darker vs. lighter ones, I don't try them enough to know the subtle differences. I don't ever really taste them without other foods as well, so that probably complicates things. One of my best friends lives in VT and has his own sugaring house. He doesn't sell it commercially though, just makes it for family and friends. His always "seemed" to taste better when we would go up there to visit and help out, but I'm sure that was because we were there in the moment though.
It's like when I go wine tasting at wineries. Some of the wines seem so good when tasting at the winery so I buy a bottle, only to find out it wasn't nearly as good as I remembered it.
Also a Mel Brooks thread, and I'm just here so I don't get fined.
