Now that Lehner is signed to 5 years, 5 million, they have 12 million in committed cap hit to goaltending, 7 million of which is to their backup goaltender. It's been reported that they do not want to retain salary in a trade, and it's arguable that even MAF @ 50% retention (3.5 million dollar cap x 2 years, salary of 3.25 and then 3.0) is still a negative value asset. Instead of paying 6.25 million dollars and possibly having to take back another contract, LV can spend 8.333 million instead. That might make financial sense for them if nobody wants MAF @ 50%.
His buyout would be 2.083 for 4 years, and the cap hit would be 2.583, 3.083, 2.583, and 2.583 respectively. So, Lehner's 5 mil and Fleury's buyout is anywhere from .083 to 1.083 more against the cap than Fleury by himself as it stands.
