If you go through the teams on CapFriendly, we are in really good shape. Pretty much rostered out with $2.1MM in space.

Ruzicka the only guy to sign.

No LTIR reliance so the Flames will have a tonne of deadline cap space.

Talent wise, we may have lost a tiny bit, but I think we're better slotted now in that our two best players aren't left wingers. We should have a far far more balanced line up.

Older roster up front, but it's a two year window. If necessary, a complete overhaul can be done in 2024/25.

I have to give Treliving a tonne of credit for making lemons into lemonade. Just an amazing offseason. Pretty excited for the season.
