If I buyout Stanley now, I'd still be cap compliant.

Just my thoughts, I'm ok with it as is but IMO these 2 scenarios are the same thing. Cap manipulations post-game 82.
The first case requires you to find a buyer for that cap. Seems like right now there is plenty of cap available and not many looking to buy it.

In the second case you can do that on your own, and the financial cost of the buyout doesn't impact you at all. You got the full use of the player, and got out of the contract for nothing.
