I don't think they can re-unify the salary that way.
I do not know if you can or cannot re-integrate the 1/4 retained salary portion with the re-acquired 3/4 portion of the contract. I would seek a ruling. It is worth a shot - it saves 1.5 m in dead cap hit. In principle, why not? It is all part of the same contract for the player that the Sens originally negotiated, and the Sens would once again be responsible for paying 100%.
If this is not allowed, then I am afraid it is Brannstrom for Seeler or a draft pick and Pinto gets less
I think Leafs should listen to this trade proposal. They are going to lose Martin Jones via waivers so might as well trade him to TBL for something. They do not need Murray's LTIR relief and are paying him $1.2m, Better to spend the million acquiring some depth at the AHL level.
As for waiving Joseph at the end of camp and placing Murray on LTIR so you have a 21 player opening day roster with an ACSL just under $83.5m (including Joseph's 1.8m non-buried cap hit) - I think that is allowed under the last day of camp/Opening day cap rules. I think this would be a first for Ottawa - the Sens have always used LTIR to stay above the cap floor, not push the ceiling.
Of course, the simple answer once Kubalik was arriving via the De Brincat trade was to sign Pinto and Tatar instead of Tarasenko.

You do understand that basically none of what you said is allowed or possible right?
