It doesn't. Makes no sense at all. PLD is overrated and as a Manitoba boy our Jets would be very happy with a haul like that.

I question if they have a handshake bargain contract for the team going forward for kopitar? Make it through a single season then he’s cheap and makes up the need with a cap rise possibly.

But even just for this season, how do you add 5 players, including 3 starters (goalie included) without making your team demonstrably worse to fit this in. Fine, add Anderson-Dolan and ****emo into the lineup at cheap contracts, even a 3rd at a league minimum. You just used up the rest of the cap space, and you need a 3rd pairing LD and a starting goalie. What are we doing here?

Works great if Winnipeg retains $3.5M over the entire 8 years. That's the only way the reported return makes sense.
