LTIR is actually a bit complicated, but on a basic level here's what happens...
1) Team has a portion of the player's cap free while the player is out.
2) During that time teams can utilize that cap space.
3) When the player returns, the cap goes back to normal. There's no prorated amount that the team can continue to utilize.
So basically, while Geno is out, the Pens can fit Holl and/or Engvall, but when Geno returns, so does his full cap hit, so the Pens would be over the cap by Holl and/or Engvall. If Geno was to miss the whole season, this scenario would work, but he's supposed to move appx. two months.
