I expect Kapanen will look really good with a larger role in Pitt.
Also, his cap hit is not enough to allow them to go after Brodie. They will now have $7.7M of room, and needing 7 guys to fill out the roster. Even with 6 of those guys at league minimum, that only leaves $3M.
They would still have to move another large ticket before they could go after Brodie.
