Because both players make over 1.075M, if they were to call up Baertschi and send down Schaller, the total cap space of the Canucks would be exactly the same as it is now.
I didn't. I suggested 3rd line scoring winger, which is pretty much what he is, and that the Canucks have room for one of those because their third line is more of a scoring line than a checking line. All in all, they'd be better with him in the lineup than Schaller. Not that it's the difference between them being the mediocre team they are and actually being good, mind you.

This is grossly incorrect, you candidly don't understand the CBA.
$1.075 is the maximum that can be sheltered without caphit. The remainder, DOES apply despite being buried.
But do, please, be more patronizing even in your error.
Not bothering with the rest.
