Yeah, those were it. Everything's settled now, and cap numbers are updated.
Everyone's fine except Nashville. Please send down Chucko. In fact, if Chucko isn't already sent down by the next sim, could whoever's doing it do it, since he was brought up by Pat in the first place?

Regehr's $3.5M salary minus the $2.5M in cap space you already had when he was injured. You only get enough LTIR to replace the injured player's cap hit.

They didn't have Harding at the time I downloaded the file. He's with them on the 9th though so maybe it's just a timing issue of when we each got the file.

Updated. Props to Arizona for having over $16M in LTIR at some point, plus a suspension or two.
Also the cap directory in the save file is updated, so if you want to double-check numbers and/or gleeful point out mistakes, go right ahead. The files should be fairly self-explanatory.

Over cap means you were over $68M and therefore got his full salary as additional LTIR.
The whole point of LTIR is that it lets you go over the cap temporarily. It doesn't reduce your cap hit.

Also, if you want a crap U25 player fastsigned for your farm team, please specify that, otherwise they could be signed on a gameday and added to your pro roster.

Not sure where the 10,323,428 is coming from.
28,652,155 / (33/82) = 71,196,266
Though if you want a more exact figure, you'd have to factor in the 2 games you've played since Dan last updated (they put you at 65,890,852 so, if you plug that in for the 65,847,413, you end up with 71,131,766 as the max allowable).

All-star update. I accidentally gave CGY too much LTIR for Huberdeau, so those numbers are slightly adjusted.
For that matter, there is no clear rule on LTIR for traded players. I have no idea how the NHL does it. I didn't even think the NHL allowed trading injured players, although obviously Horton and Pronger got moved. Anyway, I re-calculated the LTIR exemption on the first day Huberdeau went on to CGY's roster, as if he had just been injured, so I'll stick with that for the future.

The acquiring team has to waive the physical that most trades require for the deal to go through. And you can put someone on LTIR at any point (you can even wait awhile and do it retroactively) so long as they qualify. If teams are going to make use of LTIR, you usually see them call up a couple guys to max out their space before putting the player on LTIR and then send the players back down.

The simplest formula for cap room:
TODATE + x*(82-GP)/82 = 68e6
x = 82*(68e6-TODATE)/(82-GP)
x = (68e6*82 - (67493089*52))/(82-52) = 1385556
So no, you're a little short.

Except that they have Krejci on LTIR so (by the number in your post) anything from 68M to 70,456,833 will be knocked down to 68M. They're currently at 67,967,500 so add in Lindell's 1.5M and they're only at 69,467,500 and, therefore, 68M.
So you're fine calling him up Adam.

Touche. Well, if you have LTIR, then add however much LTIR you're not using to the formula. Although if you are already using some but not all of your LTIR, I'm not sure that you can work it out just from the numbers I posted.

Let me take this opportunity to remind everyone that there is no roster limit or salary cap in the playoffs. So don't complain if someone like Justin stashes a spare all-star team on the farm only to call them all up in May.
