Description

If Djoos gets claimed off waivers, the Caps are pretty much in the clear. Kuzy's absence for at least 4 days brings their year-end cap space to just under 300K given this roster (129873 + 4*41935 = 297615). Losing Djoos is a bummer given that he's one of the 2018 Cup Champs, but waiving him right now gets them under the salary cap and improves the defense by giving Siegs a full time spot and by making room for guys like Fehervary and Alexeyev. Now all they need to do is waive Stephenson lol

Kuzy savings should be $205K given $7.8M divided by days of the season x 5 actual days (3 games over 5 days). But you're pretty darned right about Djoos and Stephenson.

I was assuming 4 days since the Caps schedule is @STL 10/2, @NYI 10/4, and VS. CAR on 10/5, so from the 2nd to the 5th making 4 days the suspension length, but hell if it's 5 days that's even better

But the Caps will not go through the season with a 22 man cap roster. IR still counts against the cap, so if anyone in injured for less than 10 games/24 days both them and their replacement count. last year the Caps averaged 23.2 on the roster, the year before 22.9, 15-16 was 23.2, etc etc etc. And the Caps have been quite lucky in the injury department (compared to other teams). 22 works on paper, and on Playstation, but not in the NHL.

Would rather they waived Copley and brought Vanecek up. That fixes everything.

Hope Djoos isn't claimed. He's great and had a great pre-season, better than Siegs.

I believe even GMBM said something like not having 23 for some of the season to be cap compliant. So I don't know if you're completely right here.
