So you spend up to the cap, with no meaningful contracts coming off the books afterward... that's fun... now, what do you do with Zibanejad, Fox, and Kakko in the offseason? Do you hope for a 10million dollar salary cap raise? Because that's what it's going to take, at the very least
Mika is going to get somewhere between 7mil-9mil, for 5 years or so
Fox should absolutely be given an 8year 9mil contract
Kakko can get away with a lower value bridge deal, depending on his progress this season
And guess who's knocking on the door the following year, too? LaffyTaffy. Can't spend up to the cap this year, unless it's on rentals, or one of the bigger contracts are somehow moved
