Kramerica Industries Posted July 2, 2013 Author Share Posted July 2, 2013 They absolutely are hitting the team's salary caps still. And, while I haven't done thorough research on the matter, per se', I see no reason to think why they wouldn't receive two salaries. Lecavalier will get his Lightning buyout salary and his prospective employers' salary too; it doesn't all get absorbed by the new employer.

Lee. Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 Luongo isn't going anywhere unless there's another trade coming. Word is, the owner's father stepped in and warned both Frencesco Acquilini (owner) and Mike Gillis that there is NOT going to be a buyout of Luongo's contract, so figure out the goaltending situation.A day later, Schneider got traded to Jersey.

Funky Bunky Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 DiPietro is being bought out.I bet Luongo is next.If they were going to buy him out, they would have kept Schneider. My guess is that the Aquilinis didn't want to fork over the cash.Edit: Beaten by Lee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lecavalier will get his Lightning buyout salary and his prospective employers' salary too; it doesn't all get absorbed by the new employer.I'm sure the NHL does something similar to baseball. If a baseball player on a guaranteed contract is released, the releasing team has to pay him the money that was due for the rest of the contract. However, if that player signs with another team, that new team would pay him a minimum contract, which would then be deducted from the amount the original team has to pay him. The player wouldn't be making any more money than he was originally due in the contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Admiral Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 Wait, what's going on?The point of the compliance buyout is to comply with the lowering of the salary cap. Teams will still have to pay 66% of the remaining value over twice the balance of the contract, but unlike a standard buyout, there is no associated cap hit. It's thus closer in spirit to the old AHL/overseas burial, which has been eliminated in this CBA.Players will get their money from the buyout and from new contracts, though you can't imagine any of those new contracts will be worth all that much. Of course, I say that now, but in a world where Mike Smith is given $34 million through age 37 to smash his sticks and crap his pants without a shell to block all his shots for him, it's entirely possible someone will give Briere or Lecavalier another $25 million on top of their buyout money. We needed the lockout. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Admiral Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 Bryzgalov is going to make $1,642,857 a year from now through 2027. Pronger is owed $12,150,000 over the next four years but will probably never play again. Because of these guys they traded Richards and Carter. I'd ask "how is Paul Holmgren still in charge" if I thought for a moment that Paul Holmgren was ever in charge.EDIT: the Carolina Hurricanes have $57 million committed to the cap with only 17 roster spots full how did this happen ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
