Thread: New cap try
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>melloni17</b></div><div>Without those players signed there is approximately 16.5mil in cap space to work with! Mitts and Pilut get bridge deals. Olofson hasn't proved anything yet, contract will be minimal. Reinhart, Montour and Kreider are the big contracts. Assuming the cap will go up somewhat the following year there is room to work. And that is not including Hunwick and Sobotka dropping off.</div></div>

Thats not nearly enough:

Reinhart will get 8-9
Montour will get 5-6
Kreider will get 7-8
Olofsson will get 2-3
Mittelstadt will get 3-4
Pilut will get 3-4

With the cap coming off from expiring contracts, you only get back around 7 mil. If the cap rises to 85 that gives you 11 mil. The raises I just mentioned are over 15 and that's lowballing
