Carrying 7D instead of 8 frees up an additional $0.75M.
Assuming that Gaudreau and Tkachuk's raises take up $5M of that $7.75M, there's only $2.75M remaining to give Mangiapane and Kylington raises.
The Flames would be banking on Mangiapane signing for around $4M/year and Kylington signing for around $2M/year.
I don't see how Treliving can keep the team together without making a trade, unless they know of some creative cap wizardry that can be done (e.g. buying out Monahan and re-signing him for league minimum or something crazy like that)
