Yes offer sheets have traditionally between a pretty sad attempt to get a player, no doubt.

But does the flat cap change that at all?

Speaking of Barzal, the Isles have projected 19 roster players with $8 million cap space remaining. If they match a Barzal offer sheet of $11 million AAV that puts them $3 million over the cap.

Now they still have two key RFA's to sign, Pulock who was their #1 Dman this year and Toews who was their #3 Dman this year. Those two are getting probably roughly $10 million combined. Now the Isles are $13 million over the cap roughly. How in the world do they clear that much salary?

Islanders CapFriendly

Maybe this is the year we finally see an Aho style offer sheet actually work?
