<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Spanky227</b></div><div>Lol saying your parents computer. If you actually read you dumb twat, it literally says on their twitter that they can add contracts to get as close to 81.5m (as many as 23 on the roster) and place him on LtIR for cap relief of whatever over they are (if they go up to 81.5 exactly it’s 5.8m in relief). They can then send those two extra contracts down to the minors and use the remaining space for injury call ups. It’s quite simple, I’m surprised this is going over your head. This doesn’t hurt Tampa at all, and while they have to pay Callahan still (whatever insurance doesn’t cover), it won’t count against the cap if they do the above. So use your brain for once and think business and see that Tampa can easily take advantage of it than ridiculously overpay for a failing prospect in nylander.</div></div>

Wow. It's so weird that TB traded Callahan. Especially since his cap didn't matter, right!?!?! lolzzzzz

Thread: state of the roster - my opinion
Well ****ing done. Best Sabres concept I've seen recently by a country mile. Just a couple thoughts...

Larsson isn't mentioned in the entire post - Are you assuming that he's headed back to Sweden as some people have reported? Those reports have been refuted by his agent for what it's worth. If he is back next year, I think he's their best 4C option with Girgs pushed to the LW.

You touched on it briefly, but I definitely like the second line more with Olofsson on the right side. He's a pure shooter and the right wing positions him to be a constant threat of a quick one timer. Johansson, as far as I know, has little history of playing RW and only mentioned ever playing LW or C in his media conference the other day. His game as a playmaker is also probably better suited for his natural side.

Another good option for the first line RW spot is Vesey in my opinion. I haven't seen him play all too much, but from what I've read he's a guy with a nose for the net that likes to hang around the netmouth and clean up the garbage. That could compliment Eichel and Skinner well as neither of them are best suited for that sort of game, and Sheary is a little small for that role. Vesey has enough goalscoring touch to finish the chances that Eichel creates - He'd be a dangerous passing option at all times when the puck is on Jack's stick in the offensive zone.

Again, really well thought out post and I enjoyed reading it!

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Spanky227</b></div><div>you can go up to 10% over the cap, they'll have no issues. 10% of cap is 8.15m, callahan is only 5.8</div></div>

LTIR does not provide cap-relief. It only allows the Club using it to exceed the upper limit of the cap. I saw an example that showed TBs payroll at $80m (estimate), then if they put Callahan ($5.8m) on LTIR the would be able to exceed the upper limit of $81.5 by $4.3.

He does not come off the books all together. Also limits re-calls down the line and can cause problems along with acquiring salary through trades (like most Stanley cup favorite teams do around the trade deadline).

It helps, but it is not an ideal situation. Tampa would benefit from shedding the entire contract.
