Outstanding deal all round then
If they buy him out it will count against the cap.

What I meant is that this contract comes in effect before Gaborik turns 35 years old.

under the cba if a player's multi-year contract comes in effect after they turn 35, the contract will fully count against the cap regardless if the player retires or is buried in the minors
