Still under the cap. Haha. I said, if all 6 guys are off by half a million the Pens are still under the cap.
Give Kahun and Mccann half a million each, that is one mill. 80.6 mill in cap used.
I think JJ can be traded in a deal like I mentioned. But let's say he can't be. 3.25-0.75= 2.5 million. The deal to Yannick isn't offered and this is the difference.
That brings it to 83.1 mill. I have the cap at 84. I think it will be at least 83.5.
I know reading and math is hard, but please read my explanation and do the math for yourself instead of making outlandish comments.
what an arrogant comment.
First of all you have to add to the books the remainder of DeSmiths contract so you should do the math better as it doesn't all get buried.
so that's another $175,000.
Your margin for error on any players contract is so small it's absurd.
Let alone being able to manage that with injuries etc... there is no breathing room. It's not a real feasible plan.
Furthermore, it totally avoids the whole point of the original comment. The odds maybe pretty low here depending on the play these last few months that either guy is signed long term.
A. it's easier to trade a goalie to Seattle if Seattle gets to work his contract out. Especially if he's the guy who DIDN"T out play the other guy.
Second, with some of the play we have seen here. Jarry's play is limited so it will most definitely be a show me contract before he signs a better deal as I'm sure the player will bet on himself in hopes of making big money. And with Murray's slow start if it doesn't pick up and stay that way consistently through the rest of the playoffs they aren't going to commit 6 million in term there.
It makes no sense for the penguins to do that unless he returns to lights out play. Not saying he can't, but we wouldn't be having this conversation if he did all year.
