They would have to do a lot more than move Giroux and JVR to offer Gaudreau $10M. With those two gone and adding $10M for Johnny, they would have 11 players on contract for $72M. They would then have $9M remaining to fill out the remaining 12 roster positions, or $750K per player. Does any team really want half their roster made of up players making the league minimum?
