Well... Yes.... but they also have less cap space going into the "trash" (aka"buyout") then we do... they also have a huge LTIR credit (which they acquired largely though trades to get assets - most of these players will never play a game for Toronto in the future)... but YES... I did cherry pick to get to my point that they have some HUGE contracts on that team... I think we are more balanced... but I also think that taking on LTIR players is a bit disingenuous (read as: for the NHL to allow) considering that the cap was designed to get the teams on even terms with regards to revenue and market size.
