If they bring back Sobotka any improvement is Null and void. Also, $2 million? Did you watch him play at all?

Yes I did the minimal games he played this year he looked alright I may have put 2 mil a little high maybe 1,250,000 -500. But he's not as bad as everyone makes him out to be

No teams run with a 20 man roster. You need 1 extra guy at least and just about every team tries to run with 22-23. You'll need around 1.5 mil more shaved off your roster, the obvious spot being Jesper Fast. Also missing Montour.

The extra spaces were set for players who may play in buf this year like Cozens or asplund and I left Montour out to get signed by someone else and big will take the compensation pick most likely a second round

... multiple teams did it this season because of a cap crunch. It's easily doable and frequent actually. Teams get around it by placing guys on IR for longer and using the emergency call ups which helps wiggle around the cap. 20 players is fine
