That’s not taking into account accrued cap space though.
For example cap calculations are ran daily. If a team is $500,000 under the cap every day for half the season then they can add a 1 million dollar player without sacrificing anyone from their roster.
Regardless I’m sure NJ would be willing to retain some money for half a season if Calgary was offering the assets that they liked the best.
