but
Sedin/Sedin/Kesler/Burrows/Iggy (at 6m for arguments sake)/Hansen/Kassian
Bieksa/Garrison/Hamhuis/Edler
Schnieder
that's 47.4
assuming Ballard/Booth buyouts, Luongo traded for cap would need to be added
still 17m to sign 6 forwards, 3 d, and a backup
very doable considering Schnieder/Tanev are RFAs and probably cheap
so around 14m to sign 5 forwards, 2d, and a backup

Yeah, I could see that. Schroeder probably replace Raymond, I think he's made the team for next year.
Have to move bieksa or garrison though, and it will be tough to find a home for garrison without taking back almost equal salary. They committed to elder and I think need to get him back onto his right side for him to be at his most effective.
