Calgary's cap space in 2018 (assuming $75 Million cap) = $17,133,290
nine players are without a contract in 2018:
Backlund
Stajan
Versteeg
Jagr
Janko
Hathaway
Hrvik
Kulak
Bart
Rittich
And people are talking about using 12+ million for Tavares, leaving 5 million for the 9 roster spots remaing?
and just one year later these guys are up for new contracts:
Bennett
Tkachuk
Smith
Ferland
Mangiapane
how many minutes does Tavares play again?

JT is substantially better than any player on that list...you would obviously have to drop some players to make it happen. Thing is you could trade them for cheap young talent
Everyone is so worried about losing players from our current team...unless we go on a big run this spring who facking cares. We are about to find out if this current team is good enough to compete, right now they have an average record.
