They go from 18M under the cap to maybe 1-2M under the cap after they sign Pietrangelo and Paarjarvi.

Are they better?
Roy=McDonald
Perron >> Paarjarvi
Bouwmeester & Leopold >>>> Russell & Redden

I would say they are better after the moves.

Roy is younger than McDonald, and McDonald was retiring one way or another so at least they got a replacement for him.

Perron is good but not great and they got back a promising young player who needed a change of scenery in Paarjarvi and open up more top 6 space for Rattie/Tarasenko.

Bouw + Leopold are much better then Russell and Redden at this point and it is not even close.
