Carry forward your two 7 year signings, then do a roster for 2023-24. The Kings will have serious cap troubles at that point. Assuming Lafreniere and Turcotte work out and are elite, and that Vilardi and Kupari are good but not exceptional, then you're looking at around $20 million for bridge contracts between those 4 guys that season in addition to the $39 million you already have under contract. That's $60 million allocated to 8 players with a lot more good players that will still need contracts.
The Kings can afford one, but not both of those UFAs.
