Not exactly. FLA had to make a choice with 2 pending UFAs they knew they couldn’t afford to keep in the near term. The cap will go up substantially but not for 2/3 years, which meant they couldn’t have kept them when they came due.
So they decided to go with cap certainty on a younger player. Roll of the dice on both sides but less so for the flames as tkachuk wasn’t going to sign anyway.
