Dallas easily matches. They’ve got a variety of moves they can make to keep Robertson at that number. Just burying Khudobin in the minors saves them $1.2 million and puts them at $7.5 mil in cap space so they’d really only be $900K short and that can be made up rather easily. Robertson could sign after day 1 of the official season, the Stars then put Khudobin on LTIR for the year because it’s clear after his 1st 2 preseason games, he’s done after hip surgery last year and they suddenly have plenty of space for $8.4 mil. They could also easily trade Gurianov’s $2.9 mil to another team for a late round draft pick. If all else fails, they can trade a 2nd or 3rd round pick to a team willing to take Khudobin’s last year at $3.3 million.
There is zero chance that Jason Robertson is wearing any other jersey then Victory Green this year.
