Vegas now has $9 million in cap space with Reinhart, Pulkkinen, and Schmidt in need of contracts.
Is that bad? How much will that cost likely to keep/sign all of those players anyways? Seems like should have enough room unless they average more than 3M each . So what like 4-5M to get them all under contract or closer to 7M?
Complicated Rules.
But there is a hidden reserve for Vegas. If Ckarkson and Grabovsky are on the LTIR the team is allowed to exceed the designated salary cap ceiling by as much as the cap hit of the contract for the players entering the LTIR.
