My cap runneth over
That's only for opening day. IIRC you can place someone on LTIR the day before, before you submit your final roster.
LTIR does not count as one of the 20 minimum.
What do u guys think schuldt will sign for?
Where does it say you need 20 minimum before the season opens?
Should be about 750k two way deal. Who knows though what was promised to get him to join VGK over the other suitors.
See NHL extraction above. CBA.
Jokiharju just went for (trending towards bustville) Alex Nylander. A Blackhawks fan proposed a Jokiharju-Gusev swap, and that would be the ideal kind of trade for him.
Wouldn't it be nice if the Sabres flipped Joker to us.
I doubt he takes a two way but if he's asking 950k he might have to start in the AHL, so it's something for him and his agent to consider.
All things being equal, Hague's lower AAV might be the difference between him making it over Schuldt on opening night. Who knows, maybe you can say the same for Coghlan over Whitecloud.
Hopefully they're not that tight against the cap though.
I'm not seeing where it says they have to have a 20 man roster in the offseason though.
He needs to take the two way and acknowledge he's gotta fight to get that spot. The alternative is he doesn't take it, gets into the waiver pool where he's certain to get picked up by a random team and then see if he can stick on their squad before he might get back to VGK or the waiver pool again. Makes no sense really to take that uncertainty, take the two way deal, go make that roster spot yours and by taking 750k make your salary more attractive than Hague or Whitecloud for the tight cap they are facing. It could be the difference in making the opening roster or not.
That's not what 2 way means.
He's waivers exempt.

Once the season starts, you cannot have less than 20 players on the NHL roster (defined as 2 goalies and 18 skaters).
For cap, etc.
So, when determining what the NHL roster might be, you have to have at least 20 guys selected.

There's a poster on the Pens board (where I'm from [that sounds odd to say]) that thinks there's something major happening between Vegas and Pittsburgh. I don't even see how that can work with the salary cap. Has anyone here heard of similar rumblings?
Shattenkirk is reportedly being bought out tomorrow, and there's speculation that Michael Stone (Mark's brother) could be bought out by Calgary in a few days.
They wouldn't be bad options, and probably wouldn't cost that much (waive/trade Holden to clear another million).
I don't know if they want Engelland and Shattenkirk standing in Whitecloud's way of getting experience. He is our hope at RD, we can't have an entire top 4 of left handed defensemen.
I also don't know if they would be willing to bench Engelland for 55 games of the season.
But you also don't want to be a couple injuries from playing 3 rookies on D
