Give him 4 x 4m and move on to Mantha. |

4 X $4M....agreed!
At some point NYR will come calling for Zetterberg's contract and Stevie will get their 2022 2nd as well. |

Love Bertuzzi but he is not at the Larkin / Mantha level and anything north of $5 million would have been an extreme reach IMO. I would say $4 million is very fair for both sides.
He has looked good playing with Larkin and Mantha, especially considering the Red Wings had literally no other viable offensive threats this season with the arguable exceptions of Fabbri and Zadina. But long term I see Bertuzzi as a good second line winger, nothing more -- easily behind Mantha and eventually probably behind Zadina and Raymond as well, and perhaps others (Berggren, etc.)
I agree with Feds, 4 x $4m would be very satisfactory to me. |

NYR needs cap space, with all their buyouts and bonuses they can only have salary at about $68M (probably a bit less if players on bonuses do well).
Zetterbergs contract would give them another $6M in cap space.

Nice prop Feds. I’m not sure how many UFA years are on the table at this point. I’m impressed by Bertuzzi ask. Very self aware and team oriented kid. |

4 years locks him up through age 30. He’s not a top tier player so any longer would be a mistake. |

Sparkling answer. Was thinking that was about right for $ & term, for both Mantha (getting close to being a true break-out player he's capable of, if he can stay healthy).
I say 4x$4 for both.... |

I’d be shocked if Mantha goes that low. I’m sure he could get more on market, and he’s not qualified. Can do offer sheet |

Mantha is much better than Bertuzzi.

5 x 5.5m for Mantha would be ideal imo |

That's not really how LTIR works. Simply adding a $6 million injured player doesn't automatically allow you to then go out and buy $6 million worth of healthy players. Thre are really only a small number of circumstances where acquiring an LTIR player will actually help you circumvent the ceiling, and I'm not sure any of them apply to the Rangers right now. |

Did they recently change it???? Leafs did this just last year.

No it’s been like that forever. LTIR just changes your upper limit. It does not give you more cap space. |

Yeah, it’s a tiered rate. The team has to prove that they’re spending at the cap to get the LTIR to kick in, but there are even more subtle issues. TSN reported earlier this year that Leafs wouldn’t get relief adding more LTIR contracts for some reason. Honestly, they need to get rid of the loophole altogether. It’s become a bit of a joke. If a player can’t play, let there be a two party (plus physician) buyout with no cap hit. The requirement, of course, is that the player can’t play anymore or the penalty is enacted |

Assuming you aren't already over the cap, LTIR allows you to increase your current payroll by up to the amount of that player’s salary, as of the day the player is placed on LTIR, even if doing so would cause you to go over the cap.
Basic example:
Cap: $80 million
Current payroll including injured player: $76 million
Cap hit of injured player: $6 million
Putting the injured player on LTIR now allows you to spend up to $82 million ($76m + $6m), including your LTIR player. Note that this means that you now only have $76 million to spend on healthy players, because that’s what your team's total AAV was the day you starting using LTIR.
If you're already over the cap by the first day of the season, then LTIR essentially offers no relief. It just allows you to maintain your current payroll (and go no higher) without penalty.
In order to fully exploit LTIR, you need to be able to get your current payroll as close as possible to the cap before using LTIR, in order to get the maximum possible relief.
The reason that Toronto reacquiring Clarkson to make room for Marner worked is because, without Clarkson's contract, they wouldn't have been able to get their payroll any closer than about $3.5m from the cap ceiling by the start of the season if they weren't able to sign Marner.
That would mean they would only effectively be able to utilize ~$2 million of relief from placing Horton on LTIR, which would significantly reduce the amount of money they could offer Marner if he chose to hold out until after the season started, making them more vulnerable to getting offer-sheeted and reducing their leverage.
Clarkson's contract was just the right size to allow them to shimmy up to the cap ceiling by opening day and get maximum LTIR value. |

Yeah the Franzen LTIR and Holland’s poor cap management made me all too familiar with how it works. |

It seems there are teams that still could make use of Z's contract......NYR are under cap, untill you factor in bonuses and buyouts.......would they qualify if they got down to the $68M to be cap complient, then add Z's or Dubinski's contract and sign a player of like worth near the 1st of the season ....seems like what the Leafs did. But I am just saying that there is a procedure to be able to utilize Z's contract to expand your spending.

If I understand the numbers correctly, I think the Rangers are actually at ~$7 million under even with all that extra crap.
Active roster (21 players): ~$57.5m
Buyouts: ~$13 m
Bonus cushion penalty: ~$4m
TOTAL: ~$74.5 million
For whatever reason CapFriendly does not seem to be accounting for $4 million bonus cushion penalty in their projected cap hit calculations for the Rangers, but the buyouts are already factored in. |
