The main problem with this roster is you're in cap hell going forward. How are you going to give Reinhart and Montour new deals after this season with only Bogosian and Wilson coming off the books? Reinhart, Montour, Mittelstadt, Olofsson, Nelson, and Pilut will all need new deals and you will have about $17,200,000 in cap space (maybe $20 million if the cap goes up another $3 million) Reinhart is going to get at least $7 of it and Montour will get at least another $5 of it. So you're left with $8 million in cap space to sign your 4 RFA's that will likely eat around $5.5 million total, so you have $2.5 million in cap space but the next season Dahlin is due...even if the cap goes up another $3 million you only have $10 million in cap to work with as Perreault is coming off the books. Dahlin is going to get close to all of that if he is as good as advertised.
You didn't leave enough cap space to make any moves during the season and it's a very bleak outlook long term
