How does this work? is the bonus added to NHL-salary part?
>>69120442
yeah it just doesn't count against the cap.
>>69120418
That is not a good team m8
>>69120442
The site is showing it retarded. The NHL salary part includes the bonus. His actual pay that he'll get monthly throughout the year is $1 mil.
>>69120418
I thought it was more like $8M in cap space left?
Also, Helm and Sheahan will probably be switched from what you have.

>>69120479
8M + fran 4M & Vitale 1M in LTIR
>>69120442
the earnings are composed of the salary+signing bonus
only salary is considered when buying a player out
so, if they try to buy him out, it won't save them any cap making it not worth it
buy out proof
>>69120532
christ that's depressing
Where is Demers going to sign?
I want him on the >laffs
>>69120442
Signing bonus is given to the player as a lump sum on July 1st every year, Stamkos' salary during the rest of the year is only 1 million (so around 100k per month)
Signing bonuses are guaranteed money (unlike salary which is paid on a 2/3 ratio in the case of a buyout), the Clarkson contract is infamous because around 80% is paid in bonuses and it makes no sense to buy it out. Stammer's of course not a shit player, but anything can happen. Try the buyout tool to see how the numbers work.

Yeah, but they could dump him on a team in a rebuild and retain salary or give away picks/prospects if necessary. And if Vegas takes him, that's fine, too.

They're my local team, I go to games when I can... and I'm fairly optimistic about their chances to make the playoffs next year.
Now that I've woke up and have seen that the Blues have managed now to lose 3 of their best 4 playoff performing players in going back to sleep.
Wake me up in 340 days.

Goalies are trash but the defense in front of them is good. They need forwards though.

Resigning Ward was stupid and gives them potentially the worst goaltending situation in the league. And their forwards are just The Other Staal and a band of literally whos.

the fastest way to increase contract sizes is to let other people see how much one group is paying a person.
