Cap #s don't add up.


Arrow 1983

Recommended Posts

Cap #s don't add up would be using are bonus cushion which would effect next years cap.

this seasons cap 2015-16, $71.4 mill.

14 offence

H.Sedin 7.0

D. Sedin 7.0

Vrbata 5.0

Burrows 4.5

Sutter 3.3

Dorsett 2.65

Hansen 2.5

Higgins 2.5

Prust 2.5

Horvat 1.744*

McCann 1.107*

Vey 1.0

Baertschi 0.9

Virtanen 1.744*

8 defence

Edler 5.0

Hamhuis 4.5

Tanev 4.45

Sbisa 3.6

Bartkowski 1.75

Weber 1.5

Corrado .7

Hutton 0.700

3 goals

Miller 6.0

Markstrom 1.55

Loungo 0.800

Total: $74.191mill or $2.79 mill above cap, if Higgins goes onto LTIR -$2.5mill still $0.29mill above cap. Thus, the Bonus cushion kicks in but remember any amount we go over the cap this season will be deducted from next seasons cap. Just some food for thought as we await finally cuts.

Note: other injuries occurring this season and players Virtanen, McCann and Horvat not achieving the marks for their bonuses would help the team on this issue.

I Forgot one thing but I will let you do the math on it 74.191-1.107 (McCann) or .700 (Hutton) see the problem assuming Higgins not on LTIR.

Pretty sure you don't add the replacement player's annual cap total on top of the total. ie Higgins.

The replacement player is added per day. So if the salary is lower, you end up subtracting, not adding to the total.

IDK. I miss capgeek.

I removed the 2.5mill for Higgins and that is where I got the .290mill

I think the salaries you're quoting for Horvat, Virtanen and McCann assume they meet performance bonuses, which they may or may not. If they do, it comes off next year's cap. If not, they're under for this year. Not a big worry, I'd say.

I believe I mentioned this to.

Pretty sure it doesn't work that way either. It's per day. IOW can't really work it out unless you know how many days a player is out for/active for.

I know that doesn't help.

You are right it would be .290mill divided by the number of days in the season but the cap would still be over.

You need to remove the Bonus from McCann, Virtanen and Hutton, these will be added next year as we do not know if they are going to reach that plateau to attain such.

According to general fanager, Virtanen and McCann's cap are $894,166 each and Corrado is $632,500. Not sure how bonuses factor in, but once Higgins is placed on LTIR, our cap would be as follows:

H Sedin 7

D Sedin 7

Vrbata 5

Burrows 4.5

Sutter 3.3

Dorsett 2.65

Hansen 2.5

Prust 2.5

Vey 1

Baertschi 0.9

Horvat 0.894166

Virtanen 0.894166

McCann 0.894166

Edler 5

Hamhuis 4.5

Tanev 4.45

Sbisa 3.6

Bartowski 1.75

Weber 1.5

Hutton 0.89625

Corrado 0.6325

Miller 6

Markstrom 1.5

Luongo 0.8

Therefore, the number adds to $69,661,248.

When Higgins returns, one of McCann, Virtanen, Hutton, or Vey will be sent down, which will free up approximately $900,000, bringing us to $71,267,082, which is just under.
