NHL and NHLPA have reached agreement on accelerated compliance buyouts. Will carry full cap charge for 2013 season.

The hit will then come off the salary cap beginning this summer and the buyout will then revert to 2/3 spread out for remaining years

#NYR So in Redden's case, team pays him 100% of salary owed this year. Full cap hit minus $ saved assigning him to AHL

I'm unclear. We take a full cap hit like a regular buyout? I thought this was supposed to be an amnesty buyout. i.e. no cap repercussions.
