It’s not as simple as filling up the $21 million in cap space for the coming season.
There aren’t any other big overpriced contracts that are going away the year after to make new cap space, that doesn’t happen for another two years when Lucic’s contract ends.

Good point. And you’re not going to get any decent UFAs to sign for a single season. So looking at capfriendly, one or more well-paid roster players will need to be moved for cap relief by next off-season. Monahan is the obvious place to look for at least a couple mil cap space in a trade.
