NHL Shockwave: Aleksander Barkov’s Playoff Fate Hangs in the Balance Amid LTIR Salary Cap Drama
Remember, if the Florida Panthers place Aleksander Barkov and his $10 million on Season-Ending LTIR, that means he is ineligible to return in the regular season or playoffs. But if Barkov could return this season, the Panthers can exceed the salary cap by up to $3.8 million.
And to start this season, the Panthers will be without Matthew Tkachuk and Tomas Nosek. Going back to PuckPedia.com, which noted Florida can be cap-compliant by putting Tkachuk on regular LTIR ($3.8 million relief) and Nosek on LTIR ($775,000 relief).
