Too many years for Khaira(also don't think he's in the plans, likely going to Seattle now that Jones is gone) and 1 too many years for the other RFA's, they'll likely be signing "Bridge" deals to get them to Arb Rights, only need 2 more.. And much to the chagrin of Oiler fans, it sounds like Kassian won't be going anywhere, and I think after a down year numbers wise he's bound to come back and put up 15+ tucks and get 30+ points while playing the physical game he plays, he was good in the playoffs, it was just too little too late... I also don't get why you'd be bringing Chiasson back for that caphit, if he did come back I'd guess it would be for maybe $1.5ish, AND Trevor Lewis came to Winnipeg on a PTO and signed next to a league min deal($750k), he was solid for them, but not enough to warrant and $500k salary bump to play the 4th line in Edm... Also think Yamamoto would be getting $1m too much in the bridge deal, I see him signing something like Bear did, 2 years $2m, kind of a sh*t or get off the pot deal as a top 6 player.. And if they bring back both Barrie AND Larsson doubt Bear sticks around, can see him being used as bait to get a fairly established top 6 winger, like a Victor Olofsson in Buffalo type player, and have Bouchard slot in on the bottom pairing with PP mins...
