Montreal is the only team to ever lose a pick because of it IIRC.

For anything over 100k the fine is double and you lose a 1st round pick I think. BTW the fine is the amount you go over.

And the Riders went over by the 26k because they, for some bizarre reason, didn't release Dorsey until after the deadline and so his cap counted 100%. They would have been way under if they'd have not been morons and released him outright earlier in the season.

And when you think of the total cap and the amount going over and everything that is counted into the cap going over by 26k is peanuts. Because almost every single $$ the team spends with the exception of its coaching staff count towards the cap. Even team meals and #### like that count IIRC.
