The percentage of salary is the same as percentage of cap space retained for any transaction. So Blackhawks are getting him at 2.2M cap hit for the next almost 3 years along with half his actual salary, and since it was backloaded the Panthers are actually going to have to pay him close to 7M to play for the Hawks.
Either an absolute terrible signing or an absolute terrible trade, I guess take your pick.
