LGR4GM Posted July 26, 2011 Report Share Posted July 26, 2011 OK, done. With 12 forwards and 6 d-men, we're looking at cap space of 2.663 million. Gragnani ain't signed, and we need to have enough for call-ups or pray nobody gets hurt. So I was wrong that we're "way over the cap". But is this roster not cutting it too close for comfort? can you please name and put salary with those 12 forwards and 6def plus miller and enroth just so we can look at what you are doing? And I think either a defender other than morrison or a RW gets moved (other than kotalik) prior to the start of the season and Kotalik and Morrison are either traded or stashed in rochester.

Sorry, it was this post from Drunkard that I made my initial comment on and then was responding to korab about: Vanek Leino Pominville Ennis Roy Stafford Gerbe Hecht Boyes McCormick Gaustad Kaleta Regehr Myers Ehrhoff Weber Leopold Sekera Gragnani Miller Enroth I used NHLnumbers and just subtracted Kotalik's 3 mil and Morrisonn's 2.075.

Cereal Posted July 27, 2011 Report Share Posted July 27, 2011 Fixed. For what it's worth, using capgeek I get: 64 300 000 - (67 895 357 - 2 075 000 - 3 000 000 - 525 000) = 2 004 643 And to respond to Chimp's lineups, I think maybe they've learned their lesson about expecting Hecht to play center, and will try for Leino, Roy, Goose, McCormick as the centers?

I used the $1.45M, while CapGeek's total cap calc used the $1.43M. It seems that the $1.85M is incorrectly entered, but that somehow is not linked to the contract's total salary calculation and cap hit. So, $2.005M is correct for their cap space.

I would be ok with that roster going forward. The question is Leino for me. Also, I was at the Irishman last friday and they have the countdown to St. Patrick's day clock, can we get a countdown to the start of the season clock? i feel like there has to be a way to do it.

Here's my spreadsheet: :thumbsup: Interesting that Capgeek has numbers that do not add up. Seems like there should be automatic checks for things like that. So, after hopefully adding MAG, we should have $1M-$1.3M left. Too close for comfort? How do call-ups from Rochester get factored in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like a lot of times last season we didn't have puck possession or sustained offensive zone time. Leino is talked about highly by a lot of ppl so let us see how all that goes in 71 days!

papazoid Posted October 1, 2011 Report Share Posted October 1, 2011 look for a variation of this trade to resurface.... Buffalo News reports that a source revealed that the Sabres offered Derek Roy ($4mil) and top prospect Zack Kassian to Ottawa for Jason Spezza($7mil) at the trade deadline but were rejected. http://www.buffalonews.com/sports/columns/bucky-gleason/article472336.ece -add in Boyes($4mil) to make the cap work.
