And unless NHL Numbers is off and other contract sites are off the Oilers have 5 million this year. If the cap doesn't change next year which is the expectation they'll lose about 3 million in cap space so they'll be at 2 million.
And I doubt the cap goes up massively the year after that when the Oilers have their Armageddon.
But show me where I'm wrong?
Kick my %%%.
You can dispute the salaries, that I've put in place, 12 for McDavid (which I think is low), 7 for draisaitl lets say 3 to 4 for Nurse etc, I don't believe I'm that far off.

How does Draisaitl get more than Monahan or anyone else in that group? He doesn't.
Nurse won't get 3-4 unless its long term. I see a 2-3 year bridge for 2-3 million.
Saying 12 for McDavid is low is crazy even on an 8 year term.
6, 7, 8, 9, 12, 13, 14, 15.
If you go by those numbers for for RFA/UFA years its still 10.5 AAV.
I am fully confidant that Mcdavid signs for 7 or 8 years. I also think he will into consideration the fact a team needs to be built around him, not take a huge discount or anything but isn't going to hold out for 14 million or something. There are still 4 years of RFA left, that suddenly doesn't go away because its McDavid. Also people who say the NHLPA will be all over him to take as much as possible. Well I think that tune has changed since Escrow is one of the biggest issues in the PA right now and thy more he signs for the more everyone else loses to escrow. Its a zero sum game.
