Look at the oilers. 4.9 mil wasted cap. Buyout neal next summer it goes to 6.6. Plus a neal buyout next summer is 1.9 wasted for entire McDavid deal. I really hope neal doesn't bounce back. They are killing themselves buying out their garbage yearly.

Throw on 750k to 1.9 mil too. Just terrible cap management
I don’t care how this deal looks for the Oilers. That isn’t really relevant. The only comparison that matters here is Calgary before and Calgary after.

Is Calgary better off. I’d argue our current window we need to Maximize is to the end of Gaudreau’s deal and in that frame work 1.9 million boat ancho is better than a 5.25 million boat anchor.
