Wouldn’t it be funny if Shea Weber decided to retire today
July 6, 2025
Might bite into next years cap just a little.

Jesus. This would make Bobby Bonilla jealous
Luongo was willing to LTIRetire for the Canucks, but Jim Benning didn’t pick up the phone.
The league changed the recapture rules in 2020, now the penalty for a single season cannot exceed the AAV of the original contract. So the Predators would pay $7.875M for three seasons and then a little less than a million in the fourth season.
Honestly I kind of want to see what the league would do. Would they just let our best players sign one-year loan deals to other teams? Imagine Fil on the Maple Leafs vs Josi on the Bruins and Juice on the Oilers
Seeing how Shea is currently working with the team…
What would his incentive be to retire if he’s still drawing money on LTIR?
Give up that $1m in salary just to fuck us because why not?
