So, considering Brett Kulak and his $656,666 cap hit made the roster, that left the team just a shade over $575,000 in cap space to play with. Under normal circumstances, the Flames would take it and start the season as is. However, this season, if they did that, then when they eventually LTIR Smid, they would’ve received only $2.925M of his $3.5M in cap relief. Thus, signing Grossmann to his gross, but very specific contract.
So no, they didn't need Grossmann to keep Kulak.
