Some guys who, if do we want to retain them likely will be making more than their current pay in 2016-2017 when Bollig, Raymond, Engelland still are on contract. I think that's more than 15 mil in raises, so I can only hope the cap goes up.
Is it a huge issue? No, but it is kind of concerning that Treliving is fine with these long term deals to fringe guys who are more likely to be waived than a part of any decent trades. That's all. It'd be pretty disappointing if we have to move a guy like Stajan for cap space only because these other guys are less desirable. His most thoughtful signing was the Hiller one and shouldn't be ignored on the other hand.
