Except that they would not be starting next season fresh, they would have to clear enough cap to accommodate Eichel's $10M salary. What they need to do is to acquire a player or players on expiring contracts. Or trade for futures and rebuild, but I think they have been too close to winning it all to want to do the latter at this time.
