If Meech is on the team and on LTIR, they we will have his 500k to use however they want.

no, we can not use his $500k however we want... i already explained this. when you have cap space, that gets eaten up daily by everybody on the roster, LTIR or not. once you're up against the cap? then you're given a little 'relief', and allowed to go over the cap up to the amount of the LTIR player's cap hit.
when Franzen was hurt last year, we were already up against/over the cap. therefore, we're allowed to replace him on the roster w/ player(s) worth up to that $3.9mil.
