Although I know it's agents to agent and contract negotiations should be in a vacuum, I've always wondered if discussing salary cap was a "leverage" that GM's could used to ask the player/agent to lop off some money on their contract "to fit under the cap" or something.
For instance, Gio leaving money on the table to benefit the organization going forward or whatever the wording was.
I wonder if Smid and Engelland's cap could help in negotiations.
Back on topic... Happy to see what I've seen from Smid so far.
