I don't see any teams that will take those players without sending cap back in the deal, that's my point.

Yeah I know, that's why I said you might have to take some salary back, but they have to be expiring deals or deals with a favourable buy-out. I acknowledge that there won't be much savings THIS season, but there could be considerable savings next season and the season after that which may coincide with reduced ticket revenue.
As the new arena, I was assuming it'll be 5 years before it is ready. Is it actually slated to be ready in 3? Either way, even if it is 3 years, at least you will the beginnings of a new core with young and exciting players. With the way things are going right now, Flames will be going into that new building at the beginning of a rebuild as opposed to on the way out.
