I would like to say before I go that Richmond senselessly laying off @StillMikeBarber and @ByDavidTeel wasn’t just terrible for readers, who lose two indispensable voices on college sports, but the ACC at large. The ACC coverage brain drain is a big part of its image problem.

Roster vs Non-roster Players

All players on the NHL Roster have their cap hit count towards the team's cap hit.
Players who are not on the NHL Roster (in other leagues) do not count against the cap up to the burying threshold. Non-roster players who have a cap hit above the burying threshold carry a cap charge for the excess.
The team's cap hit each day includes players who are on the NHL Roster as of 5pm Eastern.
Players assigned to the minors must clear waivers if they are not waivers exempt.
See the PuckPedia Waivers Tracker here.

Deferred Compensation Cap Hit & Responsibility

If Jarvis is actually getting paid nearly $16m one year after this contract has expired, is there any cap penalty to that for Carolina at that time? Also, if he is owed $16m in the first year of his next contract, is that the responsibility of the Hurricanes exclusively or if he signs somewhere else or is traded, would the new team have to pay him that PLUS what ever that new contract value will be?
