Description

Sharks take advantage of a little cap space and sign Hoffman to the one-year deal he's probably going to get, and they can sign him for a little more than other teams are likely willing to pay at this point. Essentially, it's a sign and trade where everybody wins:
-Hoffman gets the $5 mil or so that he wants and ends up at a contender
-Sharks pay (retain) $2.5 mil to get a first-round pick
-A contender such as Boston, St. Louis, or Washington adds a 30-goal scorer for the season at under $3 mil against the cap and only for the trade price of a high-end trade deadline rental (but they get him for the full season).

Probably won't happen and there may be rules against this, but what do y'all think?

I know, it wouldn't work for retaining salary. Some sort of glitch, I'm not sure why it didn't work tonight (and it wasn't because I was going over 50%, it wouldn't work for even $1 mil).
