The Barenaked Ladies have a famous song called “If I Had $1000000”.
In the Los Angeles Kings case, they only need $160.
According to Jeff Solomon, vice president of hockey operations for the Kings, the team is short that amount in order to call up a player with a minimum NHL salary from their AHL affiliate, the Manchester Monarchs.
The minimum NHL salary is $550,000 with the NHL salary cap standing at $69 million.
The team has played short-handed before, most recently on Oct. 28 against the Philadelphia Flyers due to the suspension of Slava Voynov, whose $4.167 million cap hit is still on the books.
