Recapture
If Fleury retires does cap recapture kick in and if so which team does it affect?
Answer
Jul 31, 2021Fleury's contract is not subject to recapture. Recapture only applies to certain backloaded long-term contracts signed prior to 2013. If Fleury were to retire there would be no cap hit for any team, and he would lose the $6M Salary remaining on his contract.
