Quote:
"The Flames are about to find themselves in salary cap hell once restricted free agents Gaudreau and Monahan are finally re-signed. Both players are due for big raises which will make the contract Calgary just gave Troy Brouwer really sting.
Brouwer's contract will pay him $4.5 million per season and he looks slotted to play right wing on the team’s top line. His cap hit currently sits as the highest cap hit among the team’s forwards. That will change once Gaudreau and Monahan re-sign, but his contract indicates the Flames may be relying a bit too much on the 30-year-old veteran who managed just 39 points in the regular season in 2015-16."

This is pretty ridiculous.
