Trades, tomorrow, 12PM pst.

[JustAsking]

If cap geek is correct... there are 5 teams over the cap right now. They have until noon PST tomorrow to get under the cap.

Devils -3.4 million
Bruins -3.1 million
Flames -2.5 million
Nucks -1.8 million
Sharks -$5,833.

The Devils could be lucky for now considering Salvador suffered a "mysterious" concussion.

 

[dash]

For the Flames, the LTI cap relief for Daymond Langkow and possibly other players will likely allow them to get under the cap (at least for the time being).

/If I'm Steve Staios, I might start looking at rental properties in Abbotsford

 

[puckhead]

Canucks CAN get under by putting Burrows on LTIR by tomorrow, but they don't want to do that unless they have to.
they would maximize their injury cap relief if they have both Salo and Burr on the opening roster, and then put them on LTIR

 

[Destroydacre]

Sharks -$5,833.

Isn't there some kind of cap write off for that amount? :p

 

[DaBoltsNIsles]

Isn't there some kind of cap write off for that amount? :p

Sure. The Sharks give the Islanders Marleau & the Sharks get Bruno Gervais & a 2nd round pick in return.

that ones actually legit, he got clocked by JVR. but not LTIR worthy. i'm sure the devils will say it is but


however they will most likely be making another move between now and friday. they will put him on there and sent a few rookies who actually may have made the team in reality, but their opener isn't until friday, you sent them down combined w/ putting salvador on LTIR and all of a sudden they are under the cap.

but they then have 11 forwards 7 d and 2 goalies. just 20 players. there is no room for a minor injury.

so you will see someone moved by friday most likely then at least 1 if not 2 of those rookies they sent down (josefson and tedenby) called back up.
they played with NHL vets all camp, josefson even had a stable line.

 

[Automattic]

There's a percentage you can go over, right? Is that already included in the sharks number?

 

[devs30rko]

you can go over by 10% before the first day of the season
all these teams are within that margin already.

they now have to get back under by noon tomorrow

 

[Automattic]

Tyvm, sir.

 

[DaBoltsNIsles]

Well the Devils put Zubrus on waivers.

 

[Destroydacre]

Sure. The Sharks give the Islanders Marleau & the Sharks get Bruno Gervais & a 2nd round pick in return.

lol, don't be surprised if Eklund has this an an e3 tomorrow. :p

 

[devs30rko]

Well the Devils put Zubrus on waivers.

where you seeing this? the devils best beat writer hasn't heard anything yet

I saw it on NHL Network. They had it in their news or transactions part on their bottom line.

 

[devs30rko]

wow.
okay originally it was just twitter saying it... NHL network seems a bit more credible.
damnit really didn't wanna see zubie go.

 

[TheRobotDevil]

actually tg tweeted "I'm told that internet report that Zubrus is on waivers is inaccurate and he defiinitely won't be placed on waivers tomorrow. " and i saw another site saying tg debunked it as an internet rumor.but who knows.

 

[devs30rko]

just saw that.

well either way. we have 20 players, but only 11 forwards and no room to sign mair. who's clearly made the team. so we do have roster moves coming soon
