Description

After seeing how teams like TB Chicago have grossly abused the cap there is no reason why any team would not do the same to rid of bad cap contracts by putting them on LTIR.

Why did you pick Calgary to terminate Viranten?

If you're talking cap abuse, Eriksson and Roussel, why wouldn't TB and Edm just put Johnson and Neal on LTIR and keep their draft pucks???

Exactly. This is the proposals on here every day. Posters saying give up 2021 first round pick so we can use their LTIR as cap relief. It is ridiculous . Put the players on your own LTIR.

I mean, I'm pretty confident that Chicago and Tampa would have preferred to have Toews and Kuch in their lineups all season, and not to have them be out with injuries...
