Calgary.Flames · Post by **Calgary.Flames** » Mon Oct 12, 2015 10:58 am

I'm unlocking this thread. You can now post your buyouts in here.

Buyouts are for guys making more than $1,500,000 and they come with a penalty. As usual, players making less can simply be released via the waiver wire thread.

Thanks.

Buy out Jason Pominville.

4M x 75% = 3M for 1 year.

Buyout Johnny Oduya.

Drew Miller still needs to be adjusted to 3 years.

I missed this entirely and will put it in retroactive to 14/11. He had 2.6M x 1 year left = 1.3M x 1 year penalty, correct?

Yep.

Well thanks a lot guys, but shouldn't the penalty be 75% of his salary, so 1,95?

2. Players signed or acquired by the current GM: General managers will be held accountable for their decisions by paying higher buyout costs. The following chart shows the buyout percentages:
$1,500,001 to $2,999,999 = 50%
$3,000,000 or more = 75%

He was making less than $3M so only 50%.

760k for the rest of the season.

Well... it's kind of nonsense to buyout a player 75% of the way through the year when they've already been paid most of their salary, so we'll revisit this in the summer.

I assume Brassard's a free release (under 1.5M), what % are we using for Niskanen?

Previous GM, so 40%.

Panther · Post by **Panther** » Sun Aug 07, 2016 12:00 am

40% buyouts to the following please:
$2.5 Nemisz = $1.0 / 2 years
$2.7 Archibald = $1.08
$1.675 Daley = $0.67
$2.8 Ribiero = $1.12 / 2 years

2016-17: -$3.87 against
2017-18: -$2.12

Frees $5.805

Hopefully math is correct.

Vik (Habs) · Post by **Vik (Habs)** » Mon Sep 05, 2016 6:39 pm
