How does that work? They have to hit the floor pro-rated before they can play a game, without forfeiting? Or by the end of the season their total cap actually used has to be above the floor?
Either way, the Flames ability to weaponize cap gets screwed if other teams know that need to add cap.
Could they just sign an unsigned player to a contract? Is there a rule against signing really bad contracts to get to the floor? Theo Fleury and Iginla finally gets their last chance to play?
