Poor Paajarvi.

Other than going from a playoff team to a team selling at the TDL. I dont see this as a pure negative. It is a fresh start for him. He will go to a team that will probably give him a decent chance especially post TDL.

Its up to the player to make the most of it and take this moment in his career as a positive and be motivated to succeed!

Plus he gets to stay in the NHL!!

I think I have an idea, but what exactly are you referring to in regards to these players?

Haven’t read up on the details, but according to scroller reports Jagr is going on loan to Europe. Which should mean he could be recalled for the playoffs by Calgary if they wanted to do so.

How much would he get paid if he returned for the playoffs?

Could you imagine going back in time, and making a bet saying "On January 28th, 2018, Jaromir Jagr will clear waivers from the Flames".

You can, just watch out for the Libyians.

How much would he get paid if he returned for the playoffs?
No salary is paid in the playoffs.
He will receive a bonus though, due to how his contract is written. Not all players have these, but they can be negotiated in, and Jagr does.
There is also "profit sharing", if you will, where each team gets a set amount of money depending on how far they make it in the playoffs, that they then divvy up among their players as they see fit (typically seen as regulars getting more money than AHL callups who didn't actually play but served as reserves).


Jagr can still get paid while in Europe. How he gets paid is determined completely by what was signed in his contract. Clubs/Players can negotiate stipulations that state a Club is relieved of salary-related obligations while the player is on loan, or the Club may be required to pay in full, as if the player were on an NHL roster still.
Furthermore Jagr would be able to negotiate with the new club to receive money (on top of any salary that Calgary might still be paying), AND Calgary would also be able to negotiate with the new club any financial compensation, such as covering part or full of what they are still paying Jagr (within the limits of the given transfer agreement).

All of this though is pretty private, and not typically made public.

TL;DR
Jagr goes to Europe several things can happen:
1) He gets paid nothing from Calgary, but is paid by his new club whatever they agree on.
2) Calgary continues to pay him, and he is paid by his new club whatever they agree on.
3) Calgary continues to pay him (only), but the new team covers some or all expenses for Calgary.
4) Calgary continues to pay, and he is paid by his new club whatever they agree on, and the new club covers costs for Calgary.

Jagr coming back goes as follows:
1) Jagr comes back in regular season, and is paid according to his existing contract
2) Jagr comes back in playoffs and is owed no regular salary (just like any other player in the playoffs). He'd get his personal bonus, and he'd receive a to be determined amount of playoff "reward" money.



EDIT: As mouser pointed out above, his playoff bonus is $300,000.

Kruger and Jooris both added to be 4th liners in the offseason, both washed out.

Was it just lack of scoring with Kruger?

Taking a peak at corsica.hockey, it looks like his possession numbers and xGF% were pretty good considering he had the worst ZSR of any forward on the team and middle-of-the-pack QoC numbers.

It’s a lack of anything. He’s just out there burning time, not doing anything in either end. It’s easy to forget he’s even on the team.
