I would say they are in pretty good shape up front. Two of their top forwards signed to reasonable long term deals, and all their support guys with 3 years or less.

Not to mention that the cap is expected to increase next year and losing Hemsky and Smyth will clear an additional 7.25 million in cap space, which alone should cover raises for RNH and Yakupov.
They still have some balancing to do (more $ to the defense - on guys who are worth the money) but they're not in terrible cap shape going forward.
