that's not how LTIR works

?

It allows Tampa to go Seabrooks cap hit (6.875M) over the cap

not true lol. google ltir rules then come back

Long Term Injured Reserve (LTIR) - High Level Overview
To qualify for LTIR, a player must be expected to miss at least 10 NHL Games AND 24 days of the NHL season.
When a player is on LTIR, a team may exceed the salary cap.
You think you're smart lol

cap friendly doesn't count the contract toward the cap, youre still over the cap by $6M.

Wild also say no to this trade.

Seabrook's contract allows tampa to go up to north of $88 million. I am under that if I can read so it works.

edit the team and take sea brook off LTIR, you'll be -12M over.

Well yeah obviously.

my brain hurts.

Wrong before you can even put Seabrook on LTIR you've to be cap compliant. That's how the rules work You still can't be $6,000,000 over the cap.

I've used $6,132,622 of Seabrooks $6,875,000.

This is what happens for injuries in-season.

Doesn't apply to a situation like this.

LTIR is not a get out of jail free card. If it worked this way every rich team would be $25m over the cap each season.

Tampa will be Seabrooks contract above the cap, then they LTIR him to be cap compliant. That's it.

The reason it was such a big deal with Kucherov is he came back and played after the cap didnt apply in the playoffs.

That obviously will not be the case with Seabrook.

If you get injuries, How do you plan on bringing players up when you're massively over the cap?

That is the least confusing description of LTIR I've heard/read.

Okay... Before you put Seabrook on LTIR, this team's contracts are worth 94,3M. After Seabrook, it's 87,4M. You can't put Seabrook on LTIR twice, you'll have to remove those UFA signings

The Rutta/Staal trade is pretty bad for Tampa

I didn't know that CapFriendly already applies the LTIR. I thought I was only at 87M
