Re: Argonaut-Kraken Deal Reply #3 – June 18, 2020, 10:12:07 AM David pointed out that this trade puts the Kraken over the salary cap due to the loss of Fulmer's ISR. To balance things out we've agreed that to add Jeff Hoffman ($500k, 2021) from the Kraken to the Argonauts to the deal. Quote Selected
