Description
Hard to believe a person walks away 15m but it might happen. Jets need a RHD, and IMO Ceci will be just fine on good team with good team mates. Jets gain some cap space to sign Connor and Laine quickly. Leafs might no be as good without Ceci, but they gain much needed cap space so they can ice a full roster, so maybe that's their on ice benefit.

    Kovalchuk walked away from something close to a 100m when he retired from the NHL to go back to Russia.
    Buff potentially walking away from 15m to ensure he lives a happy and healthy life for the rest of his days, something we all should applaud

    also there is no recapture penalty.

    To be fair, Kovi had a contract in Russia where he was supposed to make more (although he ended up with less thanks to the ruble falling lol).
    But yeah, Buff has made 66 million dollars in his career. 14 mil is a lot but being healthy for the rest of his life is far more important (especially when he already has 66 mil)

    Agree with you. We see it so infrequently though.

    Agreed. Whats another million to an already millionaire. Guy can just live out the rest of his life happily if he wanted right now without ever having to worry about money ever again.

    Why do the leafs need to free up 4.5m? This leaves us with just Barrie as a competent nhl RHD. Swapping places with the jets seems like a very bad move. Leafs will be playing ceci this year.
