I'm quite pleased.

Don't think he's done either.

See what he's got up his sleeve next with Hemsky

Well of course he's not done...he still has to trade Eberle to the leafs.

I wonder what the cap recapture penalty is going to be.

Probably not too much.

Weird.

NHL should hold an auction for it

all proceeds go to paying the Devils Lease, cause they won't come close to making their payments of gate revenue

guy is owed over $60M for next 6 years. $11M+ for each of next 4 years.


taxes though.

maybe he playes 2 years in KHL for $20M per, tax free, then comes back.

hows that work though? if he unretires, is this contract void? or still intact?

I would think because there is SO MUCH left it would come off.

Not cap circumvention here.

Look at his contract, though:

http://www.capgeek.com/player/339

First two years, his cap hit was more than his actual salary.

And then last year, it was pro-rated.

So the "recapture" won't be too bad.

The salary definitely won't stay on the books, as he didn't sign it after the age of 35. Just the "recapture"

As per whether or not his contract becomes null and void, I don't actually know.

I don't think it does, though, or else guys would simply retire if they didn't like their contracts, and then come back later.

So how exactly does this work? He is just leaving all that money on the table? Can he return to the NHL ever and NOT play with the Devils?

And on an unrelated note, according to Sportsnet, Clarkson will not wear #17.
