Hello Everyone. There has been some misunderstanding about player contracts being recorded as either their 'full' cap hit or their 'retained salary' cap hit. (i.e. Milan Lucic here and here). At this time the rules state to follow Hockeybuzz, which shows the player's 'retained salary' cap hit. A suggestion has been put in place to change this rule; all GMs are asked to vote hereIf it is passed we will continue the rest of the draft with their 'full' cap hit (as per General Fanager). If you have any questions please ask it here.

Can I get a confirmation on what we are doing with the contracts? Are we using retained salary or their full cap hit against every team?
I just need to know what to do with Yandle. Im fine with paying him his whole cap hit, but if everyone else is still using the retained salary Im not.

Also to confirm the clarification. Trent will count $2,625,000 against his cap for Yandle, Devin will count $3,250,000 for Lucic, and I will count $6,800,000 for Kessel according to Hockeybuzz?

Currently I am counting Lucic as a $6M cap hit

For this year it's only the 3 million Devin, then next year we are using Fanager, I believe.
Which might not affect you because Loochs deal expires this year I think.

It is up to you guys but to be fair I thought I would do $6M but at this point any additional cap helps me out so I won't complain haha

Pat is correct.
Dan there is no "next year" for contracts. The contracts handed out when you draft a player are the contracts used in this league. Real life contracts have no effect other than the draft.

So Kessel's deal keeps the retained?

Let me p that a different way: what site will we use for Kessel next year? Hockey buzz or Fanager?

Kessels contract is given the contract shown on hockeybuzz and that's his contract. There's no next year.

Phil Kessel for 1.2 million since that's what is listed on hockeybuzz? Lol, just kidding. Sounds good about the contracts Julian. Figured I'd ask to be sure so I knew what to do for Yandle.

So, is Lucic at $3.25M or $6M? Either way doesn't matter to me but I'm looking for some clarification.

I'm only reporting what the rules state. Hockeybuzz was chosen and it's important we stay consistent.
