I assume the buy-out will still have the same rules as before. The team has to pay out 1/3 of the total remaining salary if the player is young enough, otherwise it's 2/3 of the remaining salary. Let's say a player has 15 million bucks left on his contract and he gets bought out. That's 10 million dollars that won't count against the team's salary cap. Not even the cap savings will count against it, like normal buy-outs. The player gets those 10 million since that's 2/3 of the total remaining 15 million dollars. Those 10 million in turn count against the player pool of salary that is counted towards the total league revenue for escrow and whatnot, which means that it's 10 million less for all other players to make that year.Originally Posted by Pengwin7
At least that's my take on it.
GO WINGS!
redden, gomez...
the bought out players would have to still collect their money (unless they agree to take less?)
player contracts are tied to hrr. this clause would reduce players portion of hrr for any given seasons that a bought out player was under contract for. could be a big deal. might not. would have to dig up a list of players that would actually be bought out and figure out how much money is tied to each year.
Nice, solid post.
Thanks for the numbers, sending you some rep.
Amen, sayeth the congregation!

A funny quote from twitter today:
"NHL offer today is the set-up for league's rejection of PA's counterpropsal in a few days. We're still two weeks from closure."
The sad thing is, its probably accurate.

Exactly my thought. The sad thing is that it's true. Oh well...
GO WINGS!
I'm guessing this isn't the deal maker.
I don't like to be pessimistic but I do like to be right and in NHL labour talks there is a lot of overlap between the two.

Who really knows (outside of the NHLPA, that is). This could be the offer that gets it done or an another offer that leads to counter that leads to another week of silence.

Interesting quote:

"NHL exec: Key is Jan 5. Need a deal by then to allow for 1 wk legal paperwork, 1 wk for camp, first puck drop Jan. 19. Otherwise it's over."
Could be smoke or could be truth. Either way, the deadline date cant be far off.
