Not surprising that you don't understand the maths. Ya f-ing dummy.
In 3 years, those extensions will be NOTHING against the cap. OR we can wait to extend them, when their price is MUCH higher...but I'm sure your better at cap gymnastics than the Lightning so we should probably listen to you.
Killorn being a UFA next year makes him EASIER to trade...but you don't understand that because you're...you. You don't HAVE to release him , ya mope. His contact falls off the books at the end of the year regardless. Jesus...how can one guy be so stupid. Do you
really think the Bolts have to try and move him to get under the cap? I'm sure you do...it's a rhetorical question. 320k is NOTHING, It's moving a 2 way contract to the minors.
WE REPLACED AN ENTIRE LINE last year. This year, we move a .5 ppg player and Rutta. And by your logic, we've become a "weaker" team?
Make no mistake...you're still the biggest dumbfuck here.
In 3 years? What happening to next year? Keep moving the goal post to suit your narrative you mental midget. We all understand these contracts will be less of a hit 3-5 years down the road, quit saying stupid shit everyone already knows. 9 players are FA in 2023-2024, 6 More players in 2024-2025. The increased cap is moot, going to have to pay more to fill the roster. The impending rebuild is approaching.
No, moving an overpriced contract (yes Killorn is overpaid) when he is a UFA next season is a hard sell unless you are bundling it with other value. Different story if you are picking someone up that is at market value, and you plan to extend them. Did not say outright release him, said release his cap hit through a trade that includes a bundle.
Keep up dipshit the masses here leveled up while you were pulling your pud talking to yourself wondering why your takes took a shit last season.
At least things will be lively around here. That is until we all get tired of punching the village drunk because he is constantly yelling at clouds while everyone else is trying to have educated discussions, they did not rip from Redditt.
All of this bluster and bullshit only proves 3 things:
1) You don't know jack-shit about how hockey contracts/salary caps work.
2) You have NO IDEA what "fair value" is for a given player.
3) I'm so far into your dome that you can't even make a post without completely melting down. You might
think I don't know anything about this subject...and if you do, that says more about you than it does me.
So first...take a deep breath. Find your happy place and embrace your ignorance. There is no shame in saying, "I don't know".
As a "rule of thumb" an (offensive) players "value" is (roughly) 1 mil per point scored. This is
only a guideline. A starting point, if you will. Centers are paid a premium as are goalies. Obviously, defenders don't adhere to this guideline. Outliers like Matthews, McDavid, etc. are obviously getting paid accordingly. I thought you already knew this stuff based on how you insisted that I stop telling you shit you already know...but...your post says otherwise so I'll speak to you like a child. Cool?
Killorn (a winger) is about 4.5 mil/year. Last year, he scored about 60 points (give or take). He out-performed his contract LAST YEAR. For the entirety of his contract, he's at ABOUT 45 points per year (average), thus making his contract "market value". I'm sure you "leveled up" in my absence. You didn't know anything before so ANY improvement would count. Fuck it...I looked it up. Killorn has averaged 49.whatever points per year over the term of his contact. Guess what that means...mental midget.
Your meltdown is based on one, simple mis-understanding. You're basing your assumption on the premise that the Lightning FO has NO IDEA how to manage the salary cap. I'm going on results here...not your mis-informed opinion and the results are in: You're a fucking idiot that doesn't know whether to wind his watch or scratch his ass. JBB has done a MASTERFUL job at manipulating the cap to this point so what gives you the impression he's gonna become stupid and incompetent tomorrow?
The "re-build" will indeed be under way. In 2029.
Now kindly fuck off and let the adults speak.
