In addition to the front office loving him, another reason Suter probably isn’t getting bought out is the Stars will already go into next season with $2.6 million of dead cap money because of performance bonuses being paid to Pavelski, Stankoven, Lundkvist, and Harley. This is the downside of using LTIR to go over the cap because it punts those performance bonus cap hits to the next season.
Pavelski’s contract was purposely structured this way to allow them to spread his cap hit over two seasons. Vegas isn’t the only team doing funny cap math under the rules.
While the cap will go up $4 million next season, the Stars will already have consumed over half of it paying for this season’s roster. Buying Suter out would add another $783k in dead cap money.
FYI, their bonus carryover penalty going into this season was only $372k.
People stopped complaining when the Stars won pretty much every game in March and April. But just wait....I don't think people really care about buying out Suter anymore now that he's playing in his correct role
Did this post come right before the third period started in the Jets game?Maybe we can have PDB coach the team during the regular season and then bring back Bones (if he gets fired) to coach the team in the playoffs?
Nope, game was 5-2 and Jets fans were calling for his firing. It was obviously a jokeDid this post come right before the third period started in the Jets game?
I just wasn't sure which way the joke was going. If the Jets were winning, it's still solid comedy.Nope, game was 5-2 and Jets fans were calling for his firing. It was obviously a joke
