There has to be more going back than just conditional picks.
- Rinosaur

Why?

Depending on how much is retained... this might not be a horrible trade if its just conditional picks.

Why?

Because I said so! lol j/k

Because cap room/roster space for next year.

Extremely exciting if we get Carter, very interested seeing what the cost was.

Ok so....

Jeff Carter only makes 2 Million next season in actual dollars

Does that make it a cheap buyout? Like 1.3 Million spread over 2 years (650k x 2) or is the buyout hit based on the cap number?

Got the off-season to figure that out. And it’s only gonna be about 2.6 mill

So hopefully Carter can produce at a third line rate here.

The Pens will have a lot of work to do this off-season. Marino's raise kicks in and they will need to extend ZAR and Blueger.

Hahaha. Either way it's Rod or Gaudreau being in or the extra forward.

EDIT

Carters buyout would be 666k for 2 seasons. This might be part of the Pens plan to not tie up 5.2 Million next year with Carter

Well I guess it will be nice to have another right shot. Haha my wife and I are watching this is 40 and it’s literally at the part they meet hartnell and jvr in the club. Stupid flyers. Weird to see Carter in a pitt uni next game

Buyouts are based on actual salary and not the cap hit?

Eh Carter doesnt excite me too much. If it was 2015, sure. But not sure he has the legs and production anymore. Dont like that he is signed for next year as well.

But if its a few conditional picks, I guess you cant really make a big fuss about it (Ryan Wilson will find a way). I would rather have had Brown.

Yep, I checked it out on capfriendly

Side note... Twitter for Flyer's fans is quite amusing reacting to this trade

It would be a 3.9m cap hit next season.

McKenzie reporting the Kings are retaining salary

It would be a 3.9m cap hit next season.

Ya, you're right. I was looking at the cost calculation line
