Stay safe, everyone.
If you are in the Tampa Bay area, we encourage you to look at your county for specific safety guidelines.
A few helpful resources
Hillsborough: t.co/MmkYoiZppT
Pinellas: t.co/VQhEnBOz8K
Pasco: t.co/kRI30KHUka t.co/c9gegxXuKO
Beyond that, let's all try to get through this together as best we can and hope for the best on the other side of Milton. Be safe, be strong, be patient and help each other out when possible because we are stronger when we work together. Love to you all!
They will be able to practice and prepare to start the season on Friday while staying clear of the storm. Also, I would have to imagine that Saturday's home opener is likely to be postponed, depending on how the storm affects our area, so just keep an eye on that -->

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.

If #LetsGoOilers put Lavoie on waivers tomorrow & only #VegasBorn puts a claim in, then they can send him down to the AHL. t.co/WorbNEN3Fe
While the roster moves to start the week seem like just paperwork, it can have a real impact for some players.
By being on the NHL roster for 1 day:
Cameron Wright EDM paid $4,958 instead of $417 in AHL
Bryce Montgomery CAR paid $4,453 instead of $286 in AHL t.co/kL5xX3loxb
On day 2 of the season we have 9 teams using LTIR to exceed the cap. A 10th team (EDM) has a player on LTIR but is not currently utilizing it.
The record for most teams using LTIR in a season:
23-24: 22
22-23: 19
