From the edmonton sun about the emery and the senators
Quote:
While the Senators goaltender has two years left on his contract at a total of $6.75 million, the Sun has confirmed through various sources the club has the option of buying Emery out at only one-third of his deal because of his age.
There is a misconception in the public that players receive two-thirds of their contract if they are bought out before the end of the deal. According to Section 13 of the Standard Players Contract, that's only true if a player is 26-or-over.
Under the terms of the new CBA signed in August, 2005, Emery, who is 25 and doesn't turn 26 until September, would only be eligible to receive $2,227,500 in a buyout because he's under 26-years-old. The Senators would be allowed to spread the cap hit over double the remaining term of the deal which means it would cost the club $556,875 per-season for four years.

Good find, ksc218. I didn't even know about the age cutoff so it was certainly enlightening.
Although can fans really be faulted for not knowing about it? Especially when you consider that the mention about the 1/3 vs. 2/3 blurb isn't even in the section where they discuss the process of a contract buyout. You have to scroll all the way down to (page 251) the 1st item on the 4th section of the 13th point under the Standard Player Contract exhibit...

That's a good chart Charles. To me, it just highlights how important it is to grow through the draft and have low-priced young talent.
Thanks. I tried to baseline it with one elite player at each of C1, D1, and G1, and then work from there. For every next-young-star playing on the top 2 lines or top 2 D pairings but making well less than his allocation, you can afford a veteran character guy that may be making bigger money than his role suggests--perfect "bridge" in the DL parlance. But yeah, in general, you're not going to be able to get through a season without some 2-way/ELC guys really making names for themselves and keeping the costs down--and in a couple years' time when they're due their real paydays, you gotta restore that high-value slot with another prospect, ideally replacing one of the previous bridges.
i apparently put the wrong cap numbers into that file, so, if you're one of the 2 people that has downloaded it, and you haven't already changed that, my apologies

OK, this will be another work-in-progress post that we should work on as the team and season progress, that I'm adding to this sticky so we don't lose it ...
This is based around Dean Lombardi's principles and the plan he seems to have in place to make the Kings a contender, regarding his Prospect "Reserve List" of Age Groups, "CORE" players already on the team he wants to retain, and his "Fillers, Bridges & Builders" comment about the Free Agent market.
Builders = 'guy who's here when young players come into lineup and still help be a Contender' Bridges = 'guy that helps the young players that you've got become better players' Fillers = 'one-year deal warm body types'

"Armchair" can be used as a pejorative modifier to refer to a person who experiences something vicariously rather than first-hand, or to a casual critic who lacks practical experience, in phrases such as armchair revolutionary, armchair general, armchair quarterback, armchair architect and so on.
You said you can dam well make your predictions...the Kings are in the market for a Right-handed D-man or two. Preferably a tough one or two...Bogosian,Schenn would fill the prescription though a Doughty and Teubert would not be bad either...you are such a hard ass,make my predictions eh!
