what is "non roster"?

[#Canucks]

I like Carolina's & Florida's teams. I hope Florida kills it this year.

Could be a player that is on a personal leave, suspended, or who is between teams like Gadjovich who is waiting on his visa.  Non roster players count against the cap but don't take up a roster spot.

From puckpedia.com

 

If a player is unfit to play due to COVID protocols (tests positive or is considered a close contact to a positive case), they can be designated as non-roster. This designation means they do not count towards 23 player active roster limit, but they do continue to count against salary cap.
