NYI salary perspective

[puckhead]

from Bob Mackenzie tweet:

NYI's top liners earning $900k (Tavares) $800k (Comeau) & $600k (Parenteau). Total salary cost = $2.3M. NJ has 8 forwards each earning more.

heard Jeff Marek say when you take out bonus dollars expected to be paid this year to tavares and the other young guys and money owed to Yashin and Witt on buyout:

total dollars in salary paid out this year for the Islanders equals 32.75 million

smells like circumvention to meet the cap floor lol

Another thing to take into consideration is at the end of the season the Islanders will have about 16.9 million coming off the books. A bit over 2.5 million of that comes from Yashin's buyout.

Wisniewski 3.25 million
Roloson 3 million
Yashin 2.5 million from buyout
Moulson 2.4 million
Martinek 1.9 million
Jurcina 1 million
Weight 875 K
Witt 833 K from buyout
Konopka 600 K
Parenteau 600 K

Total 16,963.000
