Jones waived as expected, only one so far me thinks.

Driedger is the guy I'd have taken salary be damned! 3.5M makes him a pretty easy slide I guess.CarltonTheBear said:https://twitter.com/frank_seravalli/status/1711080646183948453
Jones feels like the clear cut pick there for a team needing a goalie.
edit: Frank missed Alex Stalock getting waived by Anaheim. He'd be another legitimate claim threat there but I still think Jones goes somewhere.

This is pretty funny. I don?t know if it is a sufficient deterrent (it will be for AZ).
Only if he's up 30 days OR 10 gamesyuzisee said:So if Jones gets called up, say, in December to fill in? does he need to clear waivers once again to go back to the AHL after that?
A player does not need to pass through waivers if the player has not been on the NHL active roster for a cumulative 30 days since last clearing waivers, OR has not played in 10 or more NHL games. CBA Reference 13.2(b) (Despite the CBA reference saying 30 days AND 10 games, the rule is actually 30 days OR 10 games)
Significantly Insignificant said:I know this gets asked every year. Can the Leafs accumulate cap space if they have used LTIR?
What is the Accruable Cap Space Limit (ACSL)?
When a team goes into LTIR, their effective salary cap, or upper limit, is changed. This adjusted upper limit is calculated as a function of the teams cap space and the player?s cap hit. This value is the ?accruable cap space limit? (ACSL), and is the first value calculated. Second are the salary and performance bonus relief pools that are later explained below.
The accruable cap space limit is the teams new upper limit excluding their LTIR relief pools. If the team operates below the ACSL, they begin to accrue cap space. A team can operate up to the ACSL without using their LTIR relief pools, once they operate above the ACSL, they begin to use their LTIR relief pools. In the majority of cases, a team using LTIR will be using their relief pools. Only in uncommon circumstances does a team operate below their ACSL.

The Leafs? ACLS is $83,491,449
So this is basically saying, if the Leafs can get their cap hit under this, they can accrue. But that?s basically saying they don?t need LTIR anymore even with players injured, but with a marginally nerfed salary cap ceiling.
The Leafs can accrue cap this season if they trade Matthews for picks/future considerations (or Tavares+another player).
