65M with:
9 forwards signed (Tkachuk, and 3 depth players needed)
5 defenseman signed (3 depth players needed)
1 defenseman signed (Bobrovsky)
Plus buyouts
Assume Andersson, Kylington, Valimaki, Foo, Dube and Phillips make up the majority of those depth players at around 5M.
So 70M with Tkachuk and Bobrovsky to sign. Maybe a cap ceiling of 84Mish. It's getting dicey, but possible if each signed 7M contracts. Bobrovsky will be 30, so a long-term contract could be under 7M.
