Friedman: Recent offer to Shane Pinto was in the 1 year, $1M range

[Honour Over Glory]

Sens are gonna sen...

This aged well.

How are you so dumb, that you bet on games as a pro like Pinto here. I don't give a shit that he bet on stuff, he knows what will happen if caught, yet he does it. Zero sense of self-preservation.

22 years old, only did 2 years in college and just played hockey the rest of the way. Pretty much the hallmark of college kid and I'm not so sure self-preservation is incredibly high for that age bracket.

Nope. Cap counts for on-ice suspensions but not off-ice

It depends on whether the suspension is with or without pay. Voynov for example was suspended for off-ice actions, but with pay so his cap hit continued.

Pinto would presumably be suspended without pay, so no cap hit while suspended.

If the sens do sign him, does his contract count against the cap if he is suspended for half the year?

Is it like being on ltir?

I'm not sure, but is there even an incentive to sign him before the suspension is up at all?

Not sure what the new 'December 1st' date is, but it's presumably on or after the Sens 41st game which is January 20th vs Winnipeg.

2.5 seems fair

Depends for how long. At 8yrs then it's a steal for Ottawa for example.

will be interesting if the sens sign him for this season

There is no new date.
Pinto can, and could, sign at any point in the season.

Guess they needed to pay him more

guess they don’t need to anymore

If it was a suspension for something done in-game it would count against the cap. It won't as far as I know when the player is suspended for something off-ice. For example Austin Watsons suspension for domestic violence did not count against the cap.

From my understanding, technically he still has to sign before the cut off date. Also the Sens have rescinded their offers so he is stuck with the qualifying offer.

The December 1 cut off is just for Group 2 Free Agents

11.4 Signing Deadline for Group 2 Free Agent. An SPC for a Group 2 Free Agent will be rejected and will be null and void ab initio (i.e., the Player's Free Agency and contractual status shall revert to the status he held prior to signing his SPC), if it is not signed and filed with Central Registry by 5:00 p.m. New York time on December 1 in the then current NHL Season

Pinto is not a Group 2 Free Agent, he's an unsigned player under 10.2 (c) Players With Fewer Than Three Years of Professional Experience.

people really need to read a few previous posts/pages before they post.
repeating bad info right after it was cleared up is just unnecessary
