If we move Lucic, we'll have 12M for Mangi, 3 4th liners, 2 bottom pairing D and a couple of spares. We could even afford a partridge in a pear tree.
I think you’re looking at a short 22 man roster with 6F and 3D?

But if you spend 20M for the duo and a little bit over 2M for the three spares, you have 5M to spend on 2 fourth liners, 2 bottom pairing defenseman and Mangipaine which is impossible to fit. Move Lucic and it’s still tight even if you fill the roster with six geese a laying.
