Yeah, I just posted that a little earlier.

I saw both numbers, and neither is coming directly from the Pens, so I don't know what to make of it.

My understanding of the way the incentives work is they count against the cap until they are no longer attainable. So, if it's a games played clause, that is pretty easy to figure out.

What I don't know is if it's a goals/points clause. Say it's 30 goals. And in March he's at 10. It's obviously pretty unlikely at that point, but not unattainable.

That $800,000 could be pretty important to someone like Pittsburgh around the trade deadline.
