PROJECTED CAP HIT - $83,866,667
SALARY CAP - $82,500,000
That's next year for Vegas. That's not signing a single RFA or UFA and having an 18 man roster. To keep players under contract, they'd have to release all of their FA's (U or R), then shed $4,866,667 and sign 5 league minimum players to be cap compliant and have a 23 man roster. I have no idea what their prospect pool is like, but have to imagine it is a shallow pool. Vegas' window is closed and will be for a bit is my hot take.
