What happened: PuckPedia revised its optimal LTIR capture standings after the #FlyTogether club placed a player on long-term injured reserve. Toronto slots fifth on the revised table at $105K from full utilization.

Why it matters: The table tracks unused LTIR space, a direct measure of roster flexibility under the cap. Tight captures leave room for call-ups and deadline accrual.

By the numbers: #VegasBorn $3; #FlyTogether $61; #FlaPanthers $34K; #CBJ $93K; #Leafs $105K from full LTIR use.

What to watch: Watch for further LTIR placements to shift the capture order before rosters lock.
