I think the last year of Bennets entry level deal is a year we should be targeting a cup run. So 2 seasons away. After that paying full market value for our young guys will make it tougher. So if you have to sacrifice 2018 cap space for a 2017 run you do it and deal with the problems later. Not taking on others bad deals but a little over spending on free agents wouldn't hurt. Especially if anyone wants high cap hit short term type deals.
