Mode - plafond salarial: Basique

So we usually think of salary retention as a way for contending teams to fit huge cap hits under their roster at the trade deadline. But in this case, we're using it to get some fourth line players for sub-league-minumum cap hits. We send Chicago and Anaheim a bit of an overpay to get them to retain what's really a small amount of cash. And in return, we get a fourth line that only costs us $1.6M TOTAL against the cap. That would be huge for getting Chytil and Miller on long-ish deals.

Even with that loophole though, it looks like Goodrow still gotta go. Keeping Goodrow would mean we can sign Chytil OR Miller to a long term deal, but not both (unless one of them took a huge discount.)
