all the player over 1M but Cervenka, Iginla and Bab#### are signed for 2013/14...
The replacements for Cervenka (2nd line centre) would have to be over 2M and the Babchuck replacement will be 800K plus a Million each raise for Butler and Brodie, so they won't be saving a lot of money off their current cap.
Bouwmesster being paid as a top 10 in the league d-man is absolutely not justified..... Having a 3M replacement for him saves over 3.6M in cap space and likely makes the team better.

The Flames current cap hit with nine defenceman is 67 million. It also includes Cervenka's cap hit of 3.775. If Baertschi is moved in, another player is moved out. Babchuk is off the books next year. The Flames are fine and can even afford to go after big name free agents by buying out Stajan.
