wildcam Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 Kotkaniemi 21, 6'2, is only worth maybe 2.5 million X 2 yrs AAV ---Montreal might not match? 6.1 million is crazy...lol 18-19 GP 79--Pts 34 --- 18 yrs 19-20 GP 36 -- PTS 19 --19 yrs 20-21 GP 56 -- PTS 20 -- 20 yrs 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know he hasn’t lit the world on fire yet but losing a young, rangy C you took 3OA for a likely low 1st and 3rd is pretty brutal though. The only way they “win” is if they don’t match and Canes somehow don’t make the playoffs. Otherwise Bergevin got hosed pretty good here. Considering they took Galchenyuk at 3OA too, maybe they should avoid centres at that spot? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This has no bearing on Vancouver’s ability to match. The only way a team overpays to the point that we don’t match is if it’s 4 first rounders. If a team wants to pay that then we probably take it. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep let this be a warning to GMs. Teams don’t forget about offer sheets. I bet KKs agent knew this was coming. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trebreh Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 I remember arguing with Hab fans saying Cockyniemi was better than Petey because he entered the league at 18 and will be way better by the time he's 21 lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, LTIR can be used in the off-season while the 10% off-season cushion is active. LTIR in the off-season is calculated using the basic equation outlined above, which permits a team to exceed the off-season salary cap. To use off-season LTIR the team must provide doctors proof that the player in question will continue to be injured at the beginning of the regular season for 10 NHL games and 24 calendar days. At the start of the season the teams LTIR relief & ACSL is recalculated when the 10% cushion is removed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So Weber counts up until game one. Same for us and Ferland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Byron not sure Aren’t they like 8 mil over the cap right now? Even with Weber on LTIR they’re tight up against the cap. They better hope Byron is out long term. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven’t checked yet but I’m sure Canuck Twitter already assumes Petey signed with another team and they’ve made a song or little video about it or something stupid. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Byron not sure They can’t use the LTI contracts in the summer. That’s why there is a 10% buffer; it’s to accommodate the LTI contracts, that will turn into LTIRelief once the season starts. The Habs right now have six million to get to the 10% over. If they keep JK, they are right at that 10% over. If they let him go, they still only have 6 mil.

Yes, in all likelihood but Montreal just needs to provide the NHL proof that he will miss the 1st 10 games or 24 days and then they can exceed the 10% cap overage by the amount of his cap hit. We could do the same for Ferland. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
