Re: Junior Galette Arrested


Can't be that big of a deal with only a $600/$300 bond

It's only guaranteed if he is on the roster.

Roster bonus works like this: If you are on the roster when the bonus comes due, you get it. Typically these are broken down by game though. For instance you might get a 10 million roster bonus, divided by 16 (because there are 16 games). If a player only plays 8 games then, he would only receive half that roster bonus.

Galette's roster bonus was fully guaranteed, meaning that even if he missed half the games he would still get the whole thing. But even then, he doesn't get any of it if he is not on the roster come March 12.

Hope this helps.

The dead money is another issue, but most of that is being kicked down the road. Cutting him wouldn't have much effect on this year's cap. If you are worried about 2017 or 2018 that's another issue but I doubt Loomis is thinking that far ahead. We're year to year at this point.

Makes absolutely no sense, guaranteed money is guaranteed money...
Junior Galette Contract Details and Salary Cap Charges | Over The Cap shows that Galette has 16.2 in dead money and cutting him would only save us 750,000... that still 15.something we will have to pay regardless where he is next year

After next year, he will have 2 million guaranteed left, and we will save more by cutting unless he restructures

OK then, tell you what. If you don't want to believe me, then don't! It makes no difference to me.

I would, however, suggest that you do some research on what a roster bonus is, how they are paid out, and figure it all out for yourself. It's really not that complicated once you get into it.

Re: Junior Galette Arrested

It goes without saying that all of this is extremely hypothetical since the charges don't seem big enough to justify Galette's release anyway. The point was only that, if Loomis chose to do so, it's not a huge tragedy as far as the salary cap is concerned. With that, I'll bow out of the "argument."
