You are over the cap

not enough for San Jose

would need to add pretty substatially to the hertl trade imo

Not really, Leafs have accrued enough to do this

accrued eh, how does that work?

Hard Cap is fixed. But contracts count against the cap pr. day. If you don't use all your cap space for a period during a season then you basically bank the space you are under for later usage. It is quite complicated to explain. Look at the CBA in the menu

Yes so the Leafs have cap space from injuries and taxi squad up and down currently at $762,921. So as long as your trades dont go over that amount. I am to lazy to add up what you did.

Not close for Hertl mate

What i wrote is a simplified way of understanding and a rule of thumbs way of looking at it. In reality it is way more complicated. Dubas and Pridham are moving people up and down right now to accrue as much as possible. It might not seem that way, but Freddie is injured(But not listed as such just yet) If Leafs can play Campbell, Hutchinson and Veihilainen the next week and a half. Then they can put Freddie Andersen on LTIR in retrospect, and have him come of it almost immediately. That way they have banked/accrued his cap hit(5m) (14 days) for trade deadline cap space . You cannot accrue cap if you are using the LTIR pool. All these paper transactions are done to stay as close to 81.5 mil as possible.

Classic leafs stars for extra parts. all these teams could fine much better deals by picking up the phone to any other team
