So lets say they add $14.5 so that would take them to about 72 to 73. They would probably still need to add a blueliner. So this deal gets them slightly below the cap.
The year after that, Its the apocalypse for the Oilers with Strome, McDavid, Letestu, Slepyshev, Maroon, Nurse, Benning, Broissoit all needing new deals.

They could solve this problem by removing RNH and Pouliot in a deal that involves a solid top 4 D coming back (a la Mattias Ekholm or Chris Tanev or Marco Scandella or even Jacob Slavin maybe) and then not signing Russell.
