So does Letang's
Subban will have a cap hit of 2.875 next year and then be a UFA
Letang will have a cap hit of 3.5 next year and then be a UFA
This isn't about the cap hit NEXT year, but the fact they attempted to re-sign Letang this off-season rather than risk losing a 26 year old Norris candidate for nothing next year.
They'd just be in identical situation with PK.
They already have:
Malkin 9.5 mill
Crosby 8.7 mill
Neal 5 mill
Fleury 5 mill
Martin 5 mill
For 2014-15, they REALLY can't afford 7 + mill contract or they'll have a group of stars and the rest scrubs
