Always thought too that maybe if a player gets traded then their cap hit readjusts to whats remaining on the contract. I guess maybe that would lower the value of the back half of front loaded deals to poorer teams, but maybe it wouldn’t in some strange way.

Just ideas.

Scott Gomez? (I’m sure Habs fans would pay half his salary for him to leave than all of if for him to stay)
