Thread: Opening night roster
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>fangm</b></div><div>No the formula you had was right you just used the wrong number.

Example: The 2017-18 upper limit is $75M, on the last day of the off-season a team has a projected cap hit of $78M and places a player with an AAV of $3.5M on LTIR:
Team cap hit = $78M
Player’s cap hit = $3.5M
ACSL = Team Cap Hit- LTIR = $78M - $3.5M = $74.5M
To accrue cap space while the team continues to use LTIR, they would need to trade players to get below a projected cap hit value of $74.5M.

so in this example the up limit is 83.5M the total players LTIR is equal to 10.3M
ACSL = Team Cap Hit - LTIR: In your example its $83,434,783

So the leafs would accrue for every dollar under $83,434,783 during the season.

The dead or wasted capspace for them is the ~66k between $83.5 and $83,434,783 that they can't accrue on</div></div>

yes and the maple leafs cap hit in this AGM is actually 93.6M which means they would have to trade out their LTIR players or other players to be able to accrue cap space. You can look it up in many articles the Maple leafs wont accrue any space this year. They will actually make sure they are as close to 83.5M to the cap to start the season to make sure they maximize their LTIR pool since they will not get any extra space at the deadline. Same as the oilers did the last 2 seasons. as they did not accrue any space with klefbom on LTIR. It was a discussion every summer or hoping seattle would take him just so they could accrue space.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>fangm</b></div><div>Thats now how LTIR works.

You just can't acrew the ful the cap space. So if you start the season with 0 players on LTIR then each day you don't use the full cap you acrew the difference between you cap hit and $83.5M.

If you use LTIR to start the season then you acrew the difference between your cap hit and your cap hit on day 1 of the season.

So if the leafs sent down Holmberg for example they would agree his cap space each day. Thats why teams will send players down for 1/2 days or between games to get some extra money acrewed.</div></div>

When you are below the cap before LTIR you are right that is how it would work. However in this situation the leafs are over the cap thus do not accrue cap space. here it is directly from Capfriendly LTIR facts

Example: The 2017-18 upper limit is $75M, on the last day of the off-season a team has a projected cap hit of $78M and places a player with an AAV of $3.5M on LTIR:
Team cap hit = $78M
Player’s cap hit = $3.5M
ACSL = $78M - $3.5M = $74.5M
To accrue cap space while the team continues to use LTIR, they would need to trade players to get below a projected cap hit value of $74.5M.

so in this example the up limit is 83.5M the total players LTIR is equal to 10.3M
ACSL = 73.2
so the leafs would have to run with a roster salary cap below 73.2 M to accrue any space while having players on LTIR

Thread: Opening night roster
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TMLBRIAN</b></div><div>Our playoff team? Sure.

Our starting team? Similar but this forward group is grittier. Our defence still needs to add some size and physicality.

Remember teams can make big adds at the deadline, which they can't make now because of the cap.

Either way our team last year was a cup contender, even if we didn't win the cup. There were a good 6 teams or so in that category last year. And only one wins. All you can do is ice a contender and go from there.</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>fangm</b></div><div>100% good analysis.</div></div>

With the roster as in there would be no big adds coming for this roster with out players leaving it. being in LTIR they can not accrue cap space so they would be dollar in dollar out. just like the oilers for the last 2 years. TO add a 2 million dollar player you will have to move 2 million out.

Thread: Ken Holland gets fired and I become GM
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Victor24</b></div><div>I like Bouchard a lot
Campbell is a big risk and might have negative value
Ceci is completely negative value
Holloway is young but needs refinement
Kulak is also a cap dump
So the value in the draft is 3 1sts, 3 2nds, and Bouchard

I think you would have to drop Ceci and Campbell and insert 2 of: Petrov, Bourgault, Schaefer
Then add Broberg

5 prospects + 6 picks + 1 cap dump for Sid and Letang eating half of their salary

Also, Toews will want more than 1MM. He's likely looking for 4 - 5 MM</div></div>

I think you have many things wrong here....
Ceci is not a negative value contract. neither is kulak.
Campbell as of today is a straight dump.
Oilers no longer have Schaefer
no way will Toews get 4-5 million after his decline and negative health implications.

I don't care about the trade as it will never happen and is completely unrealistic. but your view or where players are at is misguided.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TMLBRIAN</b></div><div>Man that bottom 6 and that D corp just aren't good enough in my mind. Need 1 Dman ahead of Bouchard and Ceci on the right and that dcorp would be very good.

I just don't see them as a legitimate contender this year unless McDavid and Draisaitl go completely bonkers, which is way too much to ask from them.</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>CD282</b></div><div>It's one of the best bottom-6 corps in the league.

I was looking for this exact link. Oilers bottom 6 has rounded out really nicely. and the addition of ekholm has really changed how the defense has played and preformed. stabilizing Bouchard ( much like Keith did) and another D capable of playing big minutes has helped nurse as well.

also if you look at the west Mcdavid and Dri do not need to go bonkers to beat any of these teams to make it past them to make the SCF. The great part for the oilers is they do have them and they are capable of going bonkers just for fun
