Marleau Cap Hit if retires

Asked Apr 1, 2019 by Michael A

If Marleau were to accept a trade to Arizona and then retire, does his cap hit count against Arizona, Toronto or partially to both. I was made to believe if a player who signs a contract after he is 35 and he retires with term on his contract the AAV would count against the team that originally signed the player.
