i am posting this because I have seen some people talk about retaining salaries on Stewart.
Buffalo is maxed out on the 3 salary retentions allowed at one time with Miller, Vanek, and Pominville.
the limits on salary retention are:
1. max of 3 players at a time
2. max of 15% of the salary cap used in retention.
Come June they can do new trades where they do retain salary.
That is one reason why I dont see Ehrhoff being dealt now because they cant retain 50% and thus minimize the $10M recapture to a $6.5M recapture. the draft would be a more likely time he gets dealt.
Also at that time they could trade Leino, Stewart and/or Stafford at 50% retained.
