This website also show when money is going guarantee for every player.

That website shows McKinnon as 910k salary, which matches what @49erurtaza posted above.

It shows his signing bonus allocation to be 4m, which is higher than it was supposed to be originally (2m this year and 2m next year) but his salary going from 6.9m to 910k does offset that somewhat. It doesn't appear to count the pregame roster bonuses, which look like they account for roughly 300k

I am surprised we wouldn't have kept 2m on the books for next season and brought his cap figure down to 2.9m or 3.2m with the roster bonuses. that savings would roll over into next season and would pay for itself, so I really don't see a reason we didn't do this. The only thing I can think of is that it would somehow mess with the comp pick formula when he leaves, and if that's the case then its definitely worth paying an additional 2m now. 

 

Im glad we weren't offering him incentives
