he still counts against the cap, just not the 23 man limit
Depending on how you look at it I guess you could say it doesn't count against the cap...it does BUT you can still exceed the cap by the amount of his contract. So you could kind of look at it like instead of having a $74 mill cap (or whatever it is these days) they now have a $75 mill cap or whatever his cap hit is, but his cap hit is still on the books.
Then when he comes back they have to get under the normal cap
Tom Renney was the most mild mannered guy in the world (naturally). The fans got fed up with him. Torts was torts. AV is now PE#1. I won't even mention the coaches in the lean years.
Look inward fans. Be better.
Yeah seriously. I can't even think of the last coach that Rangers fans liked. Most fans dislike things their coaches do, hard to find a perfect one. I've seen Blackhawk's fans complain like crazy about Quineville shuffling lines or playing vet D or checking line forwards like Glass, etc. St Louis has been begging to get rid of Hitchcock for years now.
I have my issues with AV but I'm not exactly ready to run him out of town yet.
