      Dead cap is far worse long-term because there's no way to undo it.

      Also, depending on the year, nothing is stopping a GM from recouping or adding more picks down the line. Difficult, if not impossible, to remove dead cap.

      Dead cap. Can't get rid of it once you have it. With picks, there's always the chance that a pick can be recouped.

       

      For instance, yeah the Canucks traded a 2024 2nd in the Dickinson/Stillman deal but if the Horvat contract talks go south and he decides he doesn't want to return and the Canucks make a deadline deal, there's always a chance that a Horvat deal could recoup that second (along with getting other picks). Not saying that'll happen but that's one scenario where they can get a pick back.
