What's this compared to YA?
2014-2015: 69M
2015-2016: 71.4M
As mentioned earlier very good news because the team needs to remove the rotten core.
Thats good news. Most cap space flexability we have ever had in the off season isn't it?
What happened is the NHLPA (Players) chose to use the 5% inflation equalizer and that bumped the total from $69 mi to $71.4 mil.
League revenue and HRR did not go up this year and with the players agreeing to bump it up they will have a higher escrow rate 5 coming off their pay cheques.
If the Leafs dump Kessel, Phaneuf, Lupul and Bozak for futures that is going to move the Leafs a lot closer to the floor than the ceiling.
Unloading David Clarkson was huge for this team.
7 years 5.25 million.....i'm still in awe of Nonis for that one.

I'm sure I'm in the vast minority but I hate the Cap.
Wonder if he'd be included as a cap dump in a potential Kessel deal with the Jackets?

That would mean they would get Kessel for 3mil a season and would require a trade that basically depleted their roster and cupboards. It would require multiple firsts and top prospects with a few young high potential roster guys.
you and me both.
Makes what the Hawks have done all the more impressive.

The idea came 100% out of Columbus, it is Jarmo Kekäläinen you should be in awe of, and thanking

I don't think we'll be seeing a team like that in the future. Instead, I can see cores getting a lot smaller and top-end talent leaving to weaker teams. This should significantly enhance parity, though.You mean circumventing the cap?
