Devils waive McGillis and his $2.2M
Coutesy of the New York Post:
The Devils waived D Dan McGillis yesterday, and if unclaimed his $2.2 million salary likely goes to Lowell. No cap help, though, since he’s not been on the list that is already over the season-opening limit . . . Lou Lamoriello said Patrik Elias, who has missed the last three exhibitions, has a “cold.”
Depending on the website you choose for salary cap numbers, this either helps the Devils or does nothing.
it helps with hockeyanalysis.com, putting the Devils ~200K over the cap.
nhlsalarycap.info puts the Devils over by ~600K when McGillis is gone
using those numbers, subtracting Matvichuk and Weimer, the Devils are at: $42.3M
Mogilny is up in the air, but possibility of LTIR: $38.8M
Madden may start on LTIR (hopefully not, we need him badly!): $35.9M
