Perhaps the reason most think you are an Oilers fan is because you are so adept at spinning numbers. Smid makes ABOUT $3 million? Actually his cap hit is $3.5M. You're changing numbers now…sort of like Oilers fans who change the start date on their rebuild every year.

Sorry, i didn't even bother to look up the exact number I was going off memory. The correct cap hit you provided would mean 7 teams couldn't afford him... big difference! The wrong cap hit was really immaterial to the point I was trying to make, but thanks for finding another excuse to jump on me (that was irrelevant to the discussion).

And forget about the part where teams would have to include $1million of cap going the other way, just to fit your argument.

Not what I meant. The team acquiring him would have to send someone down to make a roster spot (i.e. send down an AHL player with cap hit of 700k - 1M. The actual cap hit of 3.5M is not really the net addition to the acquiring team if that makes sense.
