He gave away LTIR relief when Patches must've already been injured before (or maybe they could've dumped him later). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doughtys Tooth Posted August 10, 2022 Share Posted August 10, 2022 No way Patches comes back at 6 months. This injury is more 8-12 months or if he comes back early hes gonna be extra slow 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not always. Sometimes they actually change the rules retroactively to penalize teams. OK, one team. 1 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad Marchand Posted August 10, 2022 Share Posted August 10, 2022 (edited) Seriously doubt any NHL player would hide an achilles injury for a whole month or decide not to have any surgery to fix it for that long. Teams take advantage of LTIR all the time but I seriously doubt this is one of them. I also find it hilarious that people complain about this stuff as if the Canucks haven't had Ferland sitting on LTIR for the last two seasons.

The idea that a player that will never player again should even count against your cap is the real joke. Eliminate that and you eliminate half of this cap circus crap. Do we know when he injured it? Was this a training thing then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrJockitch Posted August 10, 2022 Share Posted August 10, 2022 Sounds like off season training injury. But hey sometimes something just happens. ‘Who cares about LTIR and cap, same rules for everyone, even playing field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree there should be a solution to LTIRment that doesn't punish the player but also doesn't reward the team that takes on the contract. Someone apparently leaked on Twitter before the official team announcement that Pacioretty suffered this injury pretty recently. There's also pictures of him in Canes practice gear, which I doubt they would fake for the sake of LTIR benefits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correction: It’s only cap circumvention to certain teams (the Canucks). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
